Just the “low” setting is more than enough to get the job done. We put the 56v EGO String trimmer in the hands of a lawncare pro, and we also put it to work in the forest behind our shop. This unit is definitely not lacking in power, and it’s pretty light too. The knee and waist-high weeds and grass did not seem to bother the EGO. We like that they’ve spec’d this unit to run with typical commercial-grade 0.095″ trimmer line.
The 15″ cutting swath and heavier 0.095″ twisted line was definitely appreciated. I don’t think a lighter duty trimmer could have handled what I pushed this EGO through. I bought the first Ego product, the 12″ string trimmer, when it first came out about 4-5 years ago. It was a disaster due to a poorly designed head that made line feeding frustrating, no matter how carefully the string was wound on the spool.
Nobody wants a weak and inefficient power tool. Items over 100lbs shipped via semi-truck, be sure to select “Lift Gate” to lower the product to the ground curbside. Remote area surcharges may apply, see our full shipping policy for more details.
The EGO POWER+ 56-Volt 7.5Ah battery uses industry-leading ARC Lithium™ technology to deliver Power Beyond Belief™ and is compatible with all EGO outdoor power equipment. 0.095” twisted trimmer line is recommended for use in all EGO string trimmers. Replacement string trimmer head is exclusively compatible with the EGO POWER+ POWERLOAD™ String Trimmer (model ST1520S & ST1520).
This method is easy and efficient, though we found the spool difficult to open in the event of maintenance. To feed out more string, you need to lightly bump the trimmer head against the ground, allowing for uninterrupted weed-eating action. Speed settings are adjusted by changing the pressure on the trigger, though the range is essentially high speed and then higher speeds. This limited-time offer is only available to the purchase of $695 or more of appliances, online at rona.ca and in participating stores in Quebec. The service includes no carpentry or plumbing work, no wall hanging nor plugging in gas appliances.
But with respect to your battery use I’m surprised it took so much. I can clean up my tree patch (roughly a 1/3 acre) with my echo in one battery charge and it’s a 58V 4AH kit. I’d like to see a comparision (or I’m willing to do one next year if asked) between some of the other systems. I have the Echo 58V system and the Gen 1 trimmer motor. EGO now makes one with attachment capabilities too.
