Update on the weedeater;
This thing is awesome. It doesn't have the power of my Still, but thats a commercial version so I never expected it to. It has power like a decent seedeater from a box store. The batteries last longer than I thought they would. The best thing about it is its so light and quiet. You get much less fatigued using this due to the weight and the lack of noise/vibration compared to a gas powered.
On a side note, the dewater string is the best I've ever used. I weedeat around some cattle panel fences and the normal stuff gets torn up quick. The dealt stuff is incredibly tough.
If you didn't have a bunch of 20v dealt tools, I probably wouldn't recommend it, but I have a bunch of batteries charged every day, so its easy for me to plug one in and got, without dealing with mixed gas and fiddling with a seedeater to get it started.

I used an electric because my gas trimmer needed fixed and my Dad had it in his garage.
I haven't gone back to the gas one yet. Not nearly as much power, but the ease of just grabbing it and going easily makes that up for me.
The gas one is fixed, and I have the attachments for my gas one that include the edger and stuff, but that electric one was nowhere near the downgrade I thought it would be.Last edited by jer_james; 04-21-2017, 10:03 AM.

The one my stihl rep brought me had a battery you could plug into the unit itself, or a battery backpack that had a cord that plugged into the trimmer. It was plenty powerful too.
