Hyper Tough 20V Battery Weed Eater Review

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

How does the Walmart (?!) battery-powered trimmer compare to EGO, Kobalt, and the "Big boys"? It actually has some really nice features, including the simple adjustment to convert to a sidewalk-edger!!!

    Thank you for the great, honest review of this budget trimmer. I've been looking at it and will probably pick one up payday. It's refreshing to see a review that doesn't bash a product just because it is fairly inexpensive.

    Thank you for your video. I just got this Hyper tough weed eater at Walmart 69.00 Today. Waiting for the first charge of the battery. I have a gas weed eater about 1 year old and it is having problems starting. I was so tired of waiting for my husband to fix it. I am the one that mows the Yard. I have a small yard and I am happy I got the battery weed eater. No gas No 2 stroke oil No carburetor problems like my old gas weed eaters all used to get every now and then. I was just tired of it. This Video makes me happy knowing I made the right choice. Happy Father's Day.

    Very well said. The battery-powered weedeaters eliminate all of the hassles and frustration of gas-powered as long as you don't need the for hours at a time. And thank you for the Father's Day wishes!

    61 bucks today. Just bought a second one so my wife and i can both do the church weeds. Weve had the first one 3 years of pretty heavy use around our 2 acres....well, around the house on our two acres. Very handy. Recommend a second battery and the better charger. This is kindof a sleeper item for a typical homeowner....plenty good.

    Not sure what you mean. Are you talking about a different head with plastic blades that can be used for heavier brush? If so, I'm pretty sure it won't work, and this weedeater isn't powerful enough to work for that.

    I'm having issues with mine going thru an entire spool of line every time I use it in our small yard. I do tend to start and stop it a lot and heard that this one self feeds a little line every time you do that... Don't know why the first spool lasted so long tho. Other than that, this thing is great for home use, church, small jobs.

    i just purchased this 20v hyper tough weed eater recently and wasn't sure what to expect but it works okay for the small area i picked it up for. do you have any suggestions on how to attach different heads/blades? it appears to have a proprietary head installed on it. i have a few small areas where i could certainly use more cutting power for thicker stems. of course the ideal solution would be to get a more powerful product but was curious if i can make it work with what i have. thanks!

    Sorry, I don't use mine a ton because of how basic it is so I haven't done any looking into what other heads may be available. My guess is that there aren't other options but you could check Amazon or Walmart. I think this weedeater is good for very small yards or as an edger. However, there are many better ones out there that, of course, are more expensive. Sorry I'm not much help here.

    I need to remove the receptacle on my 20 volt hyper tough cordless trimmer because it seems some Old line has got caught up in it, behind the receptacle ,which holds the Line spool. And because of this it won't allow the trimmer to run. Of course this isn't in the owner's manual. Can somebody tell me where I might find some written or illustration on this removing of the receptacle ?

    You need to attach a charged battery. Then, you pull the trigger (it's red, under the handle) while simultaneously pressing the red button that protrudes from the side of the handle. That will make it work.

    It could be that you wound the string the wrong way (clockwise vs. counterclockwise). Try re-winding the string in the opposite direction of how you have it currently.

    It's a 20V battery so 20V x 4A-hr = 80 watt-hours. If I'm correct in my recollection that the battery lasts 30-45 minutes, that would equate to 110-160 watts.

    If you tried to charge it right after using it, the blinking light could mean it's too hot to charge. Let it cool down a bit, then try it. It could also indicate a battery that's out of life but try the first step (cool down) first.
