BLACK+DECKER 20V MAX String Trimmer/Edger Kit, 10-Inch (LST201)

Good battery

I have always hated most string trimmers, no matter the brand. Gas ones weigh a ton and kill your arm. Battery ones are too weak on power and the batteries never get past doing half of my 1/4 acre fenced in yard. So electric ones were my choice due to having some power and being light weight, with one exception- the long, long electric cords I need to drag out to do the whole yard. I won't even get into the constant string issues that almost all the bump feed trimmers have. I knew when my last electric string trimmer died what I wanted to look for in a new string trimmer- no more bump- but auto feed, no more long electric cords, but a battery one with a battery that will last, and at least enough power to get through medium- light weeds and grass. When I saw this model at this great price, I decided to order it and this is without a doubt the best string trimmer I have ever bought and used. The auto feed- what a time saver- no more messing with that string! A powerful 20 V Lithium Ion battery- power that gets me through the entire 1/4 acre yard with some to spare. The shaft is adjustable- perfect for tall people like me. A bonus is the head flips so you can also edge with this model. There is supposed to be a wheel for edging, but mine did not come with a wheel. It doesn't matter, as you can edge without a wheel. This trimmer doesn't even weigh 5 pounds- so light and easy on your arm. As for the spool, I've been using the same spool all summer and have yet to need to change it, so I'm seeing this one spool will last an entire summer on a 1/4 acre yard. Everything I wanted in a new string trimmer I now have. I always bring the battery inside and recharge it for the next use. I thought I would need 2 batteries, but not for my size yard. What used to take me an hour and a half now takes me a 20 minutes- this is the best string trimmer I have ever owned!

Excelente producto, pero la batería solo dura 30 minutos, hay que complementar con otra, y su tiempo de carga es de 4 horas

It is working good

Sin cables (extensiones), sin humo ... perfecto, para jardines. La pila aguanto ( en mi caso el pasto estaba alto ) de una area de aprox 6 x 5 metros y se apago, despues hay que recargar la pila. Si su área es más grande , puede comprar otra pila extra o esperar que se cargue la pila. El instructivo no dice cuanto tiempo puede estar prendido, pero en las cortadoras de gasolina si le piden descansar el motor mínimo 15 min entre tanque y tanque.
