I almost exclusively run electrics in my warehouses where the duty cycle is lighter.

In the manufacturing operation, I just don't have the space to manage the battery charging/changes. Even if I did, I can't justify the investment to switch. We've become very cost effective at running the snot out of LP trucks. I don't have an apples to apples comparison in the same facility, but across facilities, my cost per hour electric vs LP is close to a wash.

My situation is probably not typical.
