Have taken delivery of electric wheelbarrow ( battery) and have to say it definitely takes the hard work out of pushing and lifting a poo filled barrow. I can do two ordinary barrowsfull in one go and just steer electric barrow back to muck heap. Quite a distance to our heap, about 100 yards. Only thing is find it a tad slow, I have to stroll behind it rather than ordinary walking pace. The bucket tips up to empty. Definitely a contender if you cant afford a poo vacuum.
 
It certainly sounds interesting! How much was it? I would be interested to know how long the battery lasts as for me it is always a pain remembering to recharge the battery (for other things) in advance.
 
It was... wait for it....£470 !! Cheaper than muck truck, but still dear. However it is taking the load off my tendonitis in the arm, and easier on the back.
am still on first charge of battery done 4 days worth of poo
I think it depends on what you are using it for , the heavier the load the more it takes out of the battery.
