I don’t have that issue. I live in the middle of nowhere?

Yes,I have 2 LED floodlights mounted on my Zero Turn.
I don’t make a habit of mowing in the dark but sometimes I get a late start and spend maybe an hour or so finishing up rather than waiting until next day.

Sorry,I’m dumb,don’t know how to post pictures.
Amazon has a multitude of wiring harnesses with 1 lead for a light bar or 2 leads for separate floodlights.
I have 2 lights on my Zero turn and light bars on my tractors.Mounted them high up on ROPS.Actually,I wish I had put a light bar on the mower,if it goes bad that’s what I’ll replace it with.
The wiring harnesses had plenty of wire to run from battery to the lights,also has a built in switch,fuse.Just hook it to the battery and run the wires where you want to mount the lights.

SCAG website shows pictures of accessory lights they sell that are mounted down low in front of the seat.

Yep, two small LED lights approximately 2 inch by 3 inch mounted on the cross bar in front of my feet that the two swivel wheels mount on.

Those two small lights light up my yard and the houses across the street from me.

Bad Boy sells them but 1/3 the cost on eBay. On off rocker switch mounts in the blank space by key, controls.

Yep like the previous poster, I start when sun goes down and finish with the lights.

And MOHS surgery on my nose for skin cancer was no picnic. Sunscreen every durn day and lights on the zero turn !!!

Yes.

Two nilight 4 inch pods. The big ones that draw a shite ton of power.

The only thing I hate are the bugs

Youtube was made for this. But yes, I've seen it done. An old neighbor would cut after sunset. Nothing outrageous but he was so busy he would start right before or at sunset.

I have a 6” bar mounted in front of my feet, nothing fancy think a nilight. Like another poster mentioned, if I run out of daylight I turn it on and finish.

I don't need to. My neighbors wife decided to have the power company put a damn nuclear sun bomb on top the utility pole. I can feel the heat from the damn thing.

Dude you need help. Yard man or psychiatrist. Our grandparents and parents and most of us can get grass cut and work and enjoy life and family w/o even a zero turn never mind flood lights on mower.

Do you own your life or does your employer? Maybe its time to reassess your priorities. And if not no big deal. One must stop and smell the roses and watch the clouds go by, from time to time. IMO

Advice from a retired Type A lawyer. So much happier now with less.
