  1. The main reason I tried the dewalt vs other cordless is because I have a bunch of 20v batteries. Farmer Joe... the biggest issue I have with cordless open is the run time. Here is what I mean... I'm out cutting 10-14 lawns after work on Thursday nite. All day Friday I cut about 15-20 more and still 3 more on Saturday. With gas I know I have it. But with the battery I don't know when it's going to die, and I can't recharge in the truck. Most open only come with one battery, which I would need at least 3. At that point it's just easier to use gas. Each product has there place in the market. All are good to some extent. Maybe one day when the redmax die I'll venture more intof cordless open. But today I stay with gas.
  2. I tried out the 20volt. Was not impressed. The trimmers I use are both redmax bcz2660s. I know gas vs battery no comparison. I wanted to try it for comparison purposes, and if it was decent I would use it as a back up. Here is what I found... line was way to thin for me (.080). I run .095 Kevlar reinforced. Felt out of balance, and way too lite. As others have said it bogged in longer, thicker grass. Because it was so light I could not get a consistent height on the grass. Had to go back over it with my redmax. Overall not a bad producthing but just not for me at this time. It and the other ope that dewalt makes do have there place. I may try again in the future, but for now itso the beast called redmax that I will use.

  5. I run .095 in my whips. I found that anything smaller would break off toof easily. I also recently tried a cordless whip and hated every minute of it. Didn't even finish the house I was mowing. Went back to my redmax bcz2660. Don't know if I'll try another one. Maybe some day but the ones out on the market today don't even come close to the same proformance as my gas powered.

    Home Depot

    This deal was too good to be true. I tried about a dozen hds in my area. Only 3 stores had them at the $300 price. None of them would match that price. So much for the stores matching other store prices. Was bummed out i didnt get one
  7. I recently tried a 20v weed Wacker. I came away very disappointed. It just didn't seem to have enough power to do what I needed to. But my comparison was not fair the machine it went up against was a redmax bcz2660.
  8. Try looking on Craigslist for a used one. Cub cadet also has a 33" walk behind. If you go the crails list route you may be able to find a 36" belt drive walk behind around your budget.
  9. Nashville is roasting some duck tonite. Go preds
  10. That is awesome. Great to see that some people still care about others
  11. Hey what was the Hawks playoff slogan? "One goal". It should have been just 1 win please. I hope that the sense can come back. I can't not stand that cry baby in Pittsburgh. Hoping for a preds v sens finals with the preds winning. Conn symthe... Pekka Renner Nashville up 3-1

    That is awesome. Just to be clear i'm not a die hard lions fan. How many people still think Millen is running the team. Jimbo that is classic. Send me the link to that video if you would please.

    The Lions will get another playoff win. Oh wait a minute I thought is was 2099.
  15. I have not had to use a tripod with it yet. I disn't want to spend the extra money for it since I only needed one light. I am sure it would be usefully if you had more than one light.
  16. The folding panel light.
  17. I picked up the trip fold work light a couple of weeks ago. Great light. Love the option to use a battery or AC power. The battery use is very quick. I use it in the high mode so that adds to the battery draining quickly. The tripod option is well made. I like howhat you can have 3 lights on it. But at $80 it is not something I'm going to buy. I try my video camera tripod and it screwed in. So now the camera tripod is going in the van. May look at picking up another battery or 2 for it.
  18. What does the number in the top right by the search function (in my case 5) mean

  20. Boeing had issues with batteries on the 787. It forced them to ground the plane until the battery issue was solved. Some think exploding li-on batteries were the cause of that plane that crashed in the Indian ocean
