Chinese Site Negotiates an Electric Excavator for a Low Price, Good Battery, and That You Can Use in Small Constructions
Companies around the world are investing in clean energy, reducing the use of fossil fuels such as gasoline and diesel. Because of this, various sectors of the economy are gaining new electric equipment. China has become one of the major investment venues, where an electric excavator for construction was created.
It is the HHE10, an electric excavator sold on Alibaba. It has a digging depth of 1.65 m, as well as a digging radius of 2.4 meters. Its estimated weight is around one ton. This excavator is not very heavy for equipment in the sector; however, the company compensated with a giant 72v, 135Ah lithium-ion battery, representing a capacity of 9.7 kWh.
Ability to Lift 300 KG
Meanwhile, the model HHL-03E has a bucket with a width of 900 mm, which has the capacity to lift a load of up to 300 KG. The load lifting capacity is incredible, as it corresponds to half the weight of the machine, which is 600 KG. This electric excavator has a pair of electric motors of 1.8 kW to drive the drive wheels. A 1.5 kW motor is used to drive the hydraulic motor.

Illiterate or semi-literate grandmothers were trained to repair solar systems, open rural workshops, and light up homes that still depended on kerosene.

The world has bet on green hydrogen as the fuel of the future, but now faces the side effect: producing 1 kilogram requires about 9 liters of ultrapure water, and the largest projects on the planet are precisely in the driest regions of the Earth, where water is already scarce for people.

However, the company is selling the models for a price of $2,500, about R$ 12,600 on the Alibaba site. The equipment is certainly not the most expensive for the sector, but electric machines look more like weight-lifting equipment. However, you can adapt it to your liking by purchasing several accessories that will give much more functions to the electric excavator. Click here to see.
A buyer of the electric vehicle for small constructions recorded a video of his equipment. Some points he highlighted were the very thin paint, which quickly came off and created some rust spots, but it is nothing too serious. On the other hand, the excavator seemed a bit difficult to control for fine adjustments, such as acceleration and braking. Watch below.
Although it is electric equipment, one can notice the noise that occurs when using the motor for the hydraulic pump. In any case, the equipment seems like a good option for those who want to play with a bit of dirt in their backyard or in small constructions.
