I was riding up the street on my bicycle the other day and actually stopped and backtracked to ask my neighbor what kind of mower he was using because I was so impressed at how quiet it was. Turns out it was a Ryobi (one of their brushless 40V models, which might matter).
Based on the design I think this is the one I have: https://www.ryobitools.com/products/details/46396037169#
It does say "brushless" but they've got a fair few different varieties. I don't know, I mean like I said it is significantly quieter than a gas mower. It's a good mower. But I don't think it's anywhere near quiet enough to consider using it during off hours.
You’re 100% correct it is still too loud to be used during off hours.
