Great mower, depressing battery life

I've had this mower for about a year now, and I'm really disappointed at just how quickly the battery itself stopped holding its charge. We have two batteries, and the short lifespan of one of them is definitely on us for leaving it on too long, but we learned our lesson and were very careful to only charge the new battery when needed. I don't have a huge yard and I now need to charge both batteries about three separate times each in order to get my lawn mowed where I could get almost the entire yard with a single charge initially. That aside, this is a great mower, excellent power, not that loud and you can really get close to edges when mowing. I just wish I could get it all done at once. I support eco-friendly options, and I really wish that I could recommend this over a gas mower, but I think that it ultimately doesn't come close to being an adequate match.
I decided to give this a try over another gas lawnmower. It came with a 60v 5.0h battery which is supposed to last 60 minutes. It did the very first cut, now it only lasts about 45 minutes on a full charge. This is why I only gave it 4 stars instead of 5.
Only one mow in so far, but I was able to complete my full front and back (approx. half acre) on a single 5Ah battery. Lots of slopes and landscaping to maneuver, and I was very pleased with the weight of the mower and the self propelled feature and how easily it is adjusted throughout the mowing. Love the convenience and quality so far.
