Battery-Powered Weed EatersTested: EGO, Milwaukee, DeWalt, Ryobi, Kobalt, Makita, Atlas (Harbor Freight), Greenworks, and ECHO. String trimmers (weed eaters) tested for cutting speed, trimmer head efficiency at dispensing trimmer line, trimmer head string capacity, noise level, vibration, electric motor start-up torque, maximum run time, battery recharge time, and debris shield design. I purchased all of the string trimmers to ensure a fair an unbiased review without any pressure from manufacturers. So, thank you for supporting the channel.

For about 13 years now, I have owned and operated a licensed lawn maintenance business in northern Idaho and have been running the dual battery Makita commercially now for 3 years and have had ZERO issues with it! I did upgrade to a speed loading head and would highly recommend it! It has more than paid itself off with gas/oil mix savings for how much I work it. I haven't used any other electric trimmers and went with Makita because I already had 16 batteries, but again, no complaints at all. I rarely utilize the feature, but it is very handy to have the reverse spinning option, it automatically reverts to the regular rotation after 5 seconds. It's handy also for getting the backside of large square posts on vinyl fencing, as it's not possible to hit one side with one type of fixed rotation. You can also feather the throttle at any of the 3 speed settings. Great product! Thank you so much for making these extremely in-depth thorough un-biased videos, I just discovered your channel and subscribed, and am hooked and already recommending you to family and friends! I will most certainly be referencing your channel before any sort of purchases in the future 🙂 God bless

I've learned that if I have a lot of tall grass to cut with a trimmer, it's best to walk backwards while you trim. This keeps the grass from bunching up around the head. In the end, you have grass that's laid down nice and even, with no clumps. The string seems to last longer too as it's not trying to recut the grass clippings.

As an owner of the Dewalt, I can attest to it's power and effectiveness. The battery didn't last that long in this test. But, if it takes 1/2 or 1/3 as long to achieve a task due to its power, then it's more effective than it appears, and working half as long is less grueling. I love this machine.

Always a treat to watch you test things. It never ceases to amaze me the ingenuity you display and setting up your homemade testing. There's never a doubt to the validity of your findings and just how close in comparison your testing is to the real life average users method of usage. "Professional" testers such as Consumer Reports could learn a thing or two or twenty from your ability to provide concise, real world, unbiased and transparent testing with results the average consumer can then digest to make an educated purchase decision based on their needs. 👍👍👍

I bought the dewalt 20v max trimmer a couple of years ago. I hadn’t yet got into the flexvolt battery set and was on a small city lot with bluegrass. For that it worked fine, but wasn’t up to snuff for the woody brush at my current place. I replaced it with a stihl fs240, and didn’t look back. I wonder if the 60v flavor would have done the job, but I love the additional blade options and the handlebars with a husky harness is a lot easier on my back than any of the d handles I have used.

I bought the articulating hedge trimmer for blackberry bushes and other heavy vines around the property and it works really well and will even cut tree sprouts up to about 5/8". Last week i purchased the pole saw attatchment and drive shaft attatchment. Ive been cleaning up fruit trees and trimming oaks and cedars with it. It works really well but the vibration is much more noticable when it starts chewing up limbs. Overall im very happy with my property care setup now and could even go out and make some decent money with this tool.

I picked up the ryobi last week and I wasn’t expecting much out of a battery powered trimmer but it has been awesome. The best string trimmer I’ve ever owned actually. It’s hard to beat it’s performance for the price. Picked it up because I was tired of running out of gas and mixing gas and oil several times during the season. I’m on board with these battery powered yard tools. They’ve come a long way in the last 10 years. I haven’t had any problems with the torque slowing down but I’m just trimming my yard, no brush or anything.

The weight of the unit doesn't not bother me as I live in N. California and have a yard the size of a postage stamp, does everything I need it to do and more. Compared to my old gas trimmer, its a beast.

I bought the same Ryobi in the video a week before seeing this video. I love the trimmer and it reminds me of a gas without all the noise. I haven’t used a gas trimmer probably since 2001. Previously I had a Ryobi hybrid trimmer that worked with either 18V battery or extension cord. I almost always used it with extension cord for more consistent power and lack of breaks to change batteries. The motor recently burned out while using a battery on a simple task, the trimmer was nearly 15 years old anyway… I bought that new Ryobi and it was phenomenal. I’m finally able to tackle over grown grass that 6’+ that the old trimmer could never affect.

@beyondEV

makita/dolmar and stihl are in my opinion the best for professional use. normally i can trim about 10km of lawn edges until i need to reload 16 ft of line. the trick is to (only possible for with the full pro gear) remove the lower part of the protection and use a bit longer line, while keeping the rpm down. additionally you can cut wide enough, you then can switch directly to the really big lawn mowers. cut down times to roughly 2/3 of normal. with the stihl kmr135a (multimotor, can mount loads of stuff, so totally overpowered), i get a little over 1h from the biggest non-backpack akku and about 30 min of cutting down hip height grass. one of the biggest factors in how clean the cuts are and how much akku/fuel you use, is the line. makita blue twisted roughly halfs the power consumption. (twisted is much sharper but not as strong, so needs to be kept at lower rpm).

This man is a legend! Been using Stihl gas trimmers all my life but I'm starting to like the battery powered trimmers just for the comfort factor. I'm using the trimmer only for cleaning the edges of the property and I'm feeling the gas powered trimmer is a bit overkill for what I'm using it. And after 20 years+ I'm starting to dislike the gas fumes and noise from the gas trimmers so a Milwaukee trimmer is in order since I already have some high amp batteries. Thanks for the detailed demonstration! 😁

I’ve had the Milwaukee (QuikLoc) trimmer for a few years now. The pole saw and edger are worth the price of admission, I like them a lot despite the weird balance issues, but the string trimmer is IMO kind of a disaster, because of the feed mechanism’s tendency to jam, and how annoying it is to unjam it. I went out and bought the EGO trimmer because of that, and it’s a much better experience so far.

Excellent video and very helpful. I switched to a battery blower and trimmer about 6 years ago. I bought the cheapest I could find, which was the Ozito. It's been a very reliable trimmer. The 5amh battery does all the trimming on my 3.5 acre property, with power left in the battery at the end. It's not a fast machine, or very powerful, but it gets the job done. I recently bought a petrol trimmer and I regret it. Sure, it has the power to get the job done faster, but it needs refiling a few times, plus, it's a pain in the arse to start. (I have bad shoulders). I should have bought a newer, more expensive battery powered trimmer. And I think I will after seeing the results here.
