Ouch.?ÿ Lucky you're not dead!
I was standing behind my truck for sure, I ain't crazy like a Kiwi!?ÿ ;)?ÿ
Ha!?ÿ I was asked recently to 'help' with some moving drama with a family of mealy mouthed elder abusive "kids" that old enough to be my parents....I roundly said no to that. I have my limits....?ÿ?ÿ 😉

Cost way too much for me, but I like concept. Can't wait to try one
The electric harley. Without "that sound" will flop. Of course, it should have a volume control, and various options. Straight pipes, warm and mellow, etc.
What a world.?ÿ

Let's time travel a little back to the early 20th. century.?ÿ All Arthur and Walter Davidson wanted was a bicycle they didn't have to pedal.?ÿ Bill Harley provided engineering support and they gave birth to their namesake motorcycle.
As blasphemous as it might seem, I bet they would have embraced an electric motor for their contraption had there been one available.?ÿ ;)?ÿ

Plenty enough motors, the problem back then was the battery, too big too heavy and not enough storage.
The development of high density storage LiPo and similar tech is what has been driving the rise of electric vehicles
No battery needed.?ÿ Just a six-foot by six-foot solar collector mounted on the bike. ???? ???? ???? ?????ÿ

There's a guy north of Mena AR, in Acorn, with a recumbent 3 wheeled bicycle, with a 4th wheel added on back, it's got a hub motor in it. It's got a large solar panel on it. And mirrors, so he can see past the panel.
It's a cobbled contraption, by all appearances. I really wonder about it all. Maybe someday I'll have a solar charger on my house, and disconnect from the power co. It's not real simple, but it is getting easier.
Electric chainsaws, with batteries are improving.
GPS is improving. Will it ever displace total stations completely? I doubt it. But, for cadastral work, it's already taken over. I don't think any serious surveyors are still running 6 miles of tie line across a township.?ÿ
A pair of L1 units can do alot.?ÿ
Surveying tools and procedure has sure changed in the last 30 years.
