    Edit: oh, and these can go a full 8 hours, and have interchangeable packs if you want to go longer. This is an odd definition of “never” that you have.

      So let me get this straight, you think a crane runs for 8 hours and then the job is done? And interchangeable packs is hilarious. I think you’re completely missing the point, even if it is battery powered, they still will most likely require a generator running on diesel to operate after the 4/8 hours of run time.

          O they do, but they’re running a diesel generator…which defeats the purpose of going green.

            Where do people get the idea construction sites don’t have mains power? Any project big enough to require a crane for more than a few hours will have site power of some sort, in my experience.

              Rural construction which happens a lot more than in the city, doesn’t usually have any power at the start. You bring generators, so they have power, just it’s diesel you’re running and defeats the purpose at that point.

        So let me get this straight: you have no idea how battery technology advances, how it works, what already exists, or how to construct a valid argument?

          Cool. Replace battery with the word hydrogen… that’s been your logic this entire time.

          And no I just exist in a world that isn’t in the city nor in a place where the most I travel is to whole foods…I exist in the world of heavy equipment and have an understanding of how all of it works. You clearly do not.
