The other really notable feature of the new EGO Carbon Fiber String Trimmer is the Powerload auto-feeding head. Anyone who has wrestled with loading fresh line into a string trimmer head understands this. Some systems work better than others—but none work as easily as the Powerload system. However, weight distribution plays a big part in how comfortable the string trimmer actually feels. The feather-light shaft doesn’t mean a whole lot if the trimmer is unbalanced. You wind up having to physically overcompensate by keeping the heavy side lifted up.
May have to add “innovation beyond belief” to EGO’s tag line. This revolutionary tool puts an end to the tedious process of struggling to add line. The tool feels well built and performs as well as any gas trimmer I have used. Using a string trimmer doesn’t need to be a shoulder workout.

You simply feed the line through the trimmer head to its halfway point, press the self-feed button, and let go when the line gets to a usable length. I bought into the Ego system with an older string trimmer, the blower and the chain saw. I do wish the runtime on the blower were longer even with the 5.0Ah battery that came with the chain saw. The only negative experience I’ve had is when I broke the trigger on the string trimmer.
All EGO chargers charge all EGO batteries. The rapid charger will charge any EGO battery faster than the standard charger but all chargers work interchangeably. The new POWERLOAD system on this trimmer is great. Works as easily as advertised, insert the string, pull it even and push the button. It is one of those things you can’t believe no one had some up with before…

I say temporary, because you have a 90-day return period , that you’re just going to return for a refund after getting your original tool back. Tool-free adjustments sometimes loosen up over time and can be a hassle to retighten, and so long-term the 4-screw shaft clamp will work just fine. I jammed the motor a couple of times, and it started right back up each time. I’d say that I abused the tool, and kept it running nearly continuously for a little over two hours. My three 5.0Ah batteries could have kept me going for even longer, but I ran out of line. During Testing, I didn’t make much use of the variable speed control.
