Greenworks Pro Bare Tool 60-Volt Max Lithium Ion 16-Inch GEN2 Straight Brushless Cordless Electric String Trimmer; Battery and Charger Not Included

I didn't have great expectations for this, but it uses the same batteries that the mower uses so I figured I'd give it a try when my gas whacker broke. This thing is freakin' amazing! I have a flat acre of yard that is bound by chainlink fence. That's over 800 feet of whacking against a chainlink fence (which is brutal on line!). I used a blade system on my gas whackers, but this one came with free line, so I used it. Guess what? After whacking the entire perimeter twice, I'm still on the line that came with it! The battery lasts as long as I care to use it at one time (45 minutes - it was still running when I was done) and charges in about an hour. I'm blown away by this thing! It's light, it's quiet and it's powerful! My wife loves the mower and I love this whacker!

I am a battery powered skeptic - I purchased a Ryobi battery powered trimmer a few years ago and it just didn't cut it....returned to big box store after less than 1 use. I bought this one bc I have the 60V battery for the leaf blower which I've had for years and love. Not sure about battery life yet, but I was pleasantly surprised this cuts through thick crab grass when edging just as good as my gas powered Ryobi but quiet and smooth and no fuel hassles! Very pleased so far!!!

The only thing missing is the bayonet otherwise known as the shoulder strap. I went through more than six charged batteries before needing new line for the trimmer. But here's a freebie tip. Do not, I repeat, do not use a line trimmer to destroy poison oak, you will live regret it, if you live.

A bit heavier than I thought it would be, but works well

The first gen model we had burnt up. Found and bought this one. New style but still works the same. The batteries I already owned fit perfectly.
