Takeuchi electric compact excavator gets ‘plugged in’ in Australia

Baua Electric

Similar in size and performance to Takeuchi’s diesel-powered TB216 compact excavator , the TB20e is powered by lithium-ion battery that offers up to eight hours of continuous runtime. If you’re on a job site with grid power, that means the TB20e could (in theory) be kept working around the clock.
