Battery Mower: Milwaukee or Ryobi?

I have 9ksqft, fairly flat. I have the 2156SP ego mower using the high lift blade for now and with a 10AH battery I end with 1/5 bars, using the walking assist most the time. The mulching blade will give slightly longer run time as well. I have multiple batteries (have snow blower too), so am not concerned about switching out.
 
KBG, maybe some TTTF mixed in (sod mostly from build). HOC I've done is between 2" and 3.5", at 3" now, which I may keep at instead of 3.5". I do mulching and bagging, no side discharge. Grass thickness ranges from thicc to... acceptable, on average it's above acceptable.

I imagine as I do better irrigation this year that it'll use up more of the battery, we'll see if 10AH can still do the whole yard, high lift blade or mulching blade.

Keeping the blade sharp and not cutting when the grass is at all damp helps a ton.
