Got the 1100 series mower a few weeks back and absolutely love it. Was previously using a restored lawn boy that was not self propelled so the upgrade was night and day!

I have a small yard, around 1/3 an acre and am able to easily mow the yard on turbo the entire time and still have 1 or 2 bars left on the 10aH battery.

Two questions:

1. is mowing on turbo every time a bad idea? Like should I only use the mode when needed and will it prematurely wear the battery and shorten its long term life span?
2. I have not switched the blades, I am just using the two blades that came attached on it out of the box. I have seen a lot of suggestions to replace the blade on the mower with the extra one that comes in the box. Is it really that important to do this? Is the difference that large? I’m very happy with the performance and cut quality currently

Thanks!
Edit: I only mulch, I do not bag.
