Ego 56V String Trimmer 16 with LINE IQ POWERLOAD Bare Tool ST1620T from EGO

The benefit is that they install quickly and easily (though with recent advances like Ego’s automatic system, the advantages of the pre-loaded line aren’t as significant as in the past). You also can’t simply invest $15 in what’s basically a lifetime supply of trimmer string. Also, if you’re in a pinch and need some immediately, there may be availability issues. We recommend getting a decent supply of extra spools.

I’d say that I abused the tool, and kept it running nearly continuously for a little over two hours. My three 5.0Ah batteries could have kept me going for even longer, but I ran out of line. One of the biggest pain points of lawn care is now as simple as pushing a button.

Ego Powerload String

It can even be used in inclement weather thanks to its weather-resistant construction. Every EGO string trimmer comes with a variable speed trigger with safety lock to give users even more control of the tool’s performance. Quiet operation is one of the main reasons to choose a battery-powered tool over their gas counterparts, and the Ego Power+ 15-Inch Powerload doesn’t Ego Powerload String disappoint in this respect. We measured 87 decibels when holding it at arm’s length, and when spinning, this string trimmer produces a pleasant, even sounding hum. This string trimmer is most in its element when tackling thick weeds and grasses. It’s one of the most powerful battery-powered trimmers in our tests and rips through the neglected, brushy corners of the yard.

You need to feather the trigger to vary your speed. The lowest speed is 4000 RPM and we like to make quicker work of things at its 5800 RPM wide open throttle. At that speed, there’s enough power to tackle just about anything with a grassy stalk, including thick areas your mower misses. Free delivery from store with qualifying online purchases of $50 or more. Engineered to maximize power, run times, and ease of use—simply select your tool, click in a battery, and get to work. EGO’s advanced battery technology delivers or exceeds the power of gas—without the noise, fuss, or fumes.

This Ego has the easiest line-load system we’ve ever used, a process described in detail in the Ego ST1510T manual . When all of the string is used up, just load about 16 feet of line through the trimmer head so that there are 8 feet sticking out of each side, and then pop its cover on. Then with the press of a button, the line automatically retracts into the trimmer head, so the whole tool is ready to go in seconds.

If you have questions, please contact the Customer Care Center. The EGO POWER+ Rapid Charger leads the industry in recharge times. In just 20 minutes, a depleted 2.0 Ah battery can be fully recharged with the Rapid Charger. Every EGO POWER+ product features our industry-leading ARC Lithium™ battery technology. The new heavy-duty aluminum shaft is adjustable in length at the flip of a lever to ensure the most ergonomic fit and feel. The quick-release D-handle is easily customizable for perfect hand positioning for optimum balance.

In this case, you simply flip the lever, pull or push the aluminum telescoping shaft to the desired height, and you’re good to go. We prefer to do it while standing so we can see exactly where we want the head to fall for our height. For most of us, the adjustment came down to a difference of just 2–3 inches. The EGO Power+ PowerLoad String Trimmer with Telescoping Aluminum Shaft does something unique.

There is some pro cordless mowers that compete with pro zero turns – but you’re talking about a 17K mower. Many companies moved to a split shaft on it saves on shipping and boxes. But for others the split boom allows for an attachment system. But with respect to your battery use I’m surprised it took so much.

EGO also gives users two different speed settings for better control over how you can use this trimmer. In our experience, popping it into Low helps optimize runtime when you simply need to trim the greenworks pro grass. Unless you buy another toolkit setup with another battery and charger – like say the hedge trimmer or a chain saw, etc. I mean it’s not like you’ll use the hedge trimmer every weekend.

When I went to Home Depot to pick up a 5-pack of replacement line, I saw an Echo cordless string trimmer with a bent metal shaft. EGO says the carbon fiber shaft has a lifetime warranty, guaranteeing its strength and durability forever. EGO offers a couple of different cordless 15″ string trimmers. The main selling points of this model are the Powerload line reload feature and the carbon fiber shaft.
