tight-ass on 23/04/2020 - 23:39

Great price - especially since that includes delivery. I've got an Ego line trimmer already, but one where you have to reload the line manually…..very tempting.

Does anyone know what the difference is between Egos "Rapid Reload" and "Powerload" trimmers - is it the same thing???
- AaronR on 24/04/2020 - 00:23
  
  Rapid reload you manually wind the line back on… but not like traditional line winding. It’s easier and reasonably fast.
  
  Powerload winds for you automatically like lightning. Just watch a video on YouTube because I’m probably not making any sense.
  
  Powerload is amazing. You won’t be able to go back once you get one.
  - tor on 24/04/2020 - 01:28
    
    I have one of those, but I've never been able to push the wire through like in the video. I always have to take the cover off, then put the wire through, then put the cover back on while putting the wires through the holes in the cover. After that then I can push the powerload button to wind it in.

    On that note, I have the Aldi Xfinity 20V line trimmer. It's not a powerhouse, but it's a LOT better than the Ozito 18V which uses those annoying plastic blades. It only takes 1.6mm line, not the most powerful trimmer but does the job for small to medium yards and line is dirt cheap. for the $69-79 dollar asking price if you already have battery and charger it's a no brainer IMO, and of course you can pick these up cheaper on clearance

I'm seriously tempted by the price, but don't want to waste my time again buying a deal from TradeTools after they cancelled most of those DeWalt hedge trimmers from last week.
BellaWii on 24/04/2020 - 08:03

The Ozito line trimmer 2 x 18V model spec says 9,000RPM, 30cm cutting width and single line feed 2mm.

I'm curious to know how do you compare the power of line trimmers, just by the RPM, by RPM and cutting width, or by all 3 factors?

  The wattage of the motor would be the most relevant factor if you can find those details.

      I have Ryobi power tools (trimmer, blower, mower) with batteries over 4 years and dieing. Want to update, but its a big investment for replace all. Ego looks good and would luk for future deal with batteries.

Any good cordless mower to buy? Plant to buy the ryboi one
- ESEMCE on 24/04/2020 - 09:51
  
  From my investigations you really want 56V minimum to avoid the motor getting bogged down in wet grass. So for mine, I'd buy the AEG 56V over the Ryobi… AEG also has a steel deck, versus the Ryobi all plastic.
  I'm eyeing off the Victa 82V though… 1200W motor has a rough equivalence with the performance of a residential petrol mower.
  If you have money to burn, Masport do a 84V Aluminium Deck model, 1400W motor!

    My Father in law has the Victa 82V and it's exactly the same as my Kobalt 80V mower from Masters (aside from aesthetic plastic) and it's great.
    Large steel deck and only in very thick and wet grass does it ever struggle.
    
    I've had mine for over 3 years with the same 2 batteries and haven't noticed a loss in power or duration.

      Its better than the home brands equipment and good value for money if you have other Ryobi tools. I am using these, so it does not bother me if these are sitting down the bottom :)
      - happyadventurer on 24/04/2020 - 19:07
        
        @EnALup: I agree. I'm sure they're fine and definitely good value for money. I was just giving him a warning because once you buy a particular brand and their batteries, it makes it harder to switch to different brands because of battery incompatibility. Don't you hate that they do that.

        @kale chips suck: believe it or not, I don't have any EGO batteries. I've been eyeing off buying a 52cm EGO mower and batteries since my current petrol mower has a tiny catcher and a tiny cut width, but I'm waiting for a deal on a mower before I buy.
        I don't enjoy using my Ryobi single-line 18v trimmer, so this purchase will replace the Ryobi, but will just sit around unused until I get a cheap battery or get the new mower.

        @mduncan2: Last June, EGO had a redemption offer: spend $500 bonus 2.5AH battery, $1000 5AH, $1500 7.5AH battery. Might be worth waiting till June to get the new mower?

I prefer the powerload version.
Bought last weekend to price match Blackwoods from another deal. https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/531617

Powerload line trimmer skin only.
65cm hedge trimmer skin only.
7.5a battery backpack with rapid charge. (the battery is the older version, not a new one with battery gauge).
I've got the last one and it is an old stock, I guess.

I use the battery backpack to use it and so far happy and light to carry since the battery on my back.
My concern with the older version of the battery but Ego support said the inside basically the same except showing battery gauge only with the new version.
Any issue, comes with 3 yrs battery warranty.

Powerload line trimmer can order online with Blackwoods with free delivery.
Got email confirmation supplier has in stock but might need to wait for a week or two.
