Hopper how does she get the eye patch to stay like that

That may be more of what @ness2 may need , tell here about yours she may be looking for one
Was it light weight , mine is as heavy as my commercial gas Echo.
But have just as much cut power Im sure or close to it

What I like about it is it only takes one battery which makes it much lighter.
Our blower takes 2 and is much heavier. The wacker i got with a 4.0 battery and charger with charger for $200 at home depot. I have 5,0 bats and they last longer .No more starting up the 2 cycle which I think needs to be used more than I use it.

I think yours is bigger . My honey uses my makita and its light enough for her.
nice weight i think. and at our age 18 minutes is enough time for waiting 1/2 hour for another charge if you dont have spares.
I bought my cordless drill and impact gun fro a tool store and it came ith 4 5.0 batts

I want one that will last and have good power. Just thinking will it break down early. I think I'll go personal to Home Depot so if it breaks they can replace it right there in the store.

Any tips , where did you place your handle low or high?
How long are you getting from a charge
Also mine says no tapping needed to get line to feed (autofeed) but it stays so short unless I tap it lightly
Want to make sure mine is working correctly thks

Sprinkling but it's still rain. Going on 30hrs . 7" of rain. Soaked is the word. Didn't get to fish as a broke down ford showed up to be fixed again. A new coil and tappet cover gaskets and it should be good for at least another 100 miles....

I adjusted the handle 3 times before I had it comfortable. It's raining now, but I'll shoot a pic later. I keep the battery on the charger after every use, so no answer for time. Sorry man. The auto feed is for restringing. A light tap extends the string very nicely. Sometimes too nicely... Like if you hit a root or high spot when you're in the groove lol. Keep it clean or the auto feed will fail (from reviews before I bought it). I agree that it is just a powerful as a gas whacker.
