Great review, I have an ego multi-tool and find the balance off using a 5AH battery, but much better balance all round with a 25AH battery

Looking at getting Makita Combi Switching from Stihl Km 94 petrol How does service and repair compare for commercial use? How is the MAKITA going after a few years? Thanks
Comment from : @BenClaxton-l7i

Would love to see more reviews comparing all these 5 brands with some of the newer who gears
Comment from : @AghaSaberi

Nice review, wish I had watched it before buying the Stihl, was just keen on keeping all my battery equipment the same as i already have couple hedgers and saw from them but going from a stihl fs94 to the fs135 is quite a bit heaver at the ass end and not really liking the weight too much, getting a bit of a sore arm, thinking about checking out the husky as its 1kg lighter

I'll buy any that have a decent PRO Cut string head Like two strings, 18", 01 diam or larger, 4 cuttings strings The Kobalt 80V is plenty powerful but the Bump and Dump the whole thing head suck like every other one

I have the Stihl FSA 135, not 135 R for over 3 years, have used it and I can say abused it with all kind blades so far never have any problem brMy personal feeling is that the batteries aren't up to the machine for professional usebrThis machine deserves a better battery technology
Comment from : @sirvozelo1

Ill stick with my Stihl Kma 135r, i love it😊
Comment from : @optimuz08

HibrHusqvarna machines, commercial use brHave there been any problems with electrical plugs on these Husqvarna machines brThe electrical plug must be lubricated once in a while brWhich lubrication must be used, with silicone? brWhen the machines are pressed and get hot, the plastic in electrical plugs becomes brittle over time, from heat and incorrect lubrication? brOtherwise very good machines brDoesn't seem like the electrical plug can or must be changed? brAny experiences with and will share them publicly, Thanks

In Canada the Husqvarna 220iL has a button to reverse the line direction Makes trimming and flinging things towards or away from objects a dream Also comes with a speed feed style head The included Bli22 battery is a bit lacking though 25-30 minutes of run time A 300BLi battery runs $400-440 here I found a new one a local guy has for $180 i'm going to buy
Comment from : @jeremyjmailloux

I haven't used the Husqvarna, though I'd very much like to But, I just picked up a Makita 40v combi head and have used the Milwaukee extensively I really like the Milwaukee for quick work, it's light and easy But in terms of heft and battery life the Makita absolutely smashes it I'm only running a 5ah and it lasts wayyyy longer and even in speed two is absolutely destroys my 26cc petrol trimmer Very very very impressed
Comment from : @RaelThomas

I don't understand why Stihl isn't his number 2 Just the way he talked The Husqvarna and the steel was his favorite It sounded just by the way his experience was not actually what he said Also kind of makes me feel like he is persuaded by Husqvarna and Makita sponsoring him and that's why Makita was his number too Also the Stihl looked to be used a lot more than all others So if Stihl is one of his least favorites, how come it was used a lot more than the Makita You could say that he just had it a lot longer I'm pretty sure stihl was one of the first units out But the Makita looked barely used unlike the Husqvarna and the stihlbr I have always loved Husqvarna But I have never had a battery powered weed eater I would really love to see someone get in some really thick stuff and push it to its limits to find out what it can actually dobr Thanks for the video I really appreciated you having all of them in the lineup The only other thing I wished you did in the lineup was pricing That way people can be like well I don't need one as strong so I could use the cheaper one In my opinion, I'd rather spend $300 to $500 on the strongest one I would think for the price Husqvarna would still be the winner
Comment from : @tracymoore6668

Dewalt?
Comment from : @dobrical922

Should add the dewalt 60v to your test I think Stihl made by Green Works
Comment from : @davidhuez7027

These are all just ryobi knockoffs
Comment from : @jc-gx6pc

makita the winner
Comment from : @jasperedwards2713

Wow, it might help to learn how to effectively run a string trimmer? Juss sayin
Comment from : @georgedavall9449

Why don't you got the best one dewalt
Comment from : @JoseGonzales-ul9sv

Comment from : @peteywheatstraw9846

looking forward to seeing the Aussie comparison
Comment from : @JamesWilson-ox1kc

Really appreciate the honest real world review 👍🏻
Comment from : @chrisg6091

What one would you purchase? Including blower?
Comment from : @johnconley3473

I bought a 36 V 4mh battery powered Ryobi and company says can get 40 min, first time itself 20min it’s dead on me…thank you for your explanations…I am thinking of Hasquvana but can you please share model number
Comment from : @Munna33718

Being over 6 feet tall, it was great to see you showing the length of each one
Comment from : @rkgsd

It would've been even better to see how they handle tall weeds
Comment from : @rkgsd

I purchased the Husqvarna 325 ilk because you recommend it I use this trimmer for my private lawn and I am really happy Maybe I will get the the attachment with the gras shears, because the high dry gras is always wrapping around the trimmer headbrAnyway, the video shows me the easy and comfort usability of the husky Just simple and easy
Comment from : @Christian

How many years will the battery likely last?
Comment from : @billhesford6098

I can’t understand a fuckin thing you said but cool video
Comment from : @travisclarkin4277

Get the dewalt it's the most powerful liw vibration
Comment from : @loucifer4205

Great video Looking at investing in battery gear for one brand myself, who would you recommend? Thanks mate
Comment from : @tomeascreat

Would be interested to see your opinion on the 520ilx lined up against these I don't recommend running a different head if it's heavier or line bigger than 24mm, it makes a big difference But works the other way too I run a small alloy head on it, stens and bga spares make them, and it makes quite a difference in efficiency and allows you to run the line longer too so you move the guard up the shaft a bit Run in eco mode with stens silver streak razor twisted line 24mm I think the best run time I've had was around 2 hours with the bli300 just doing lawns edges and light brushcutting
Comment from : @zacjohnson8404

I like how you compared all rear motor trimmers The ones with the motors on the head seem to be the lesser quality ones and are cheaper as they should be
Comment from : @kelkev85

I have the sthil and love it run time I never touch my gas trimmer
Comment from : @thomaslawnandlandscape

I really like my Makita XGT equipment, much better than the unreliable Ego stuff i previously had I do agree the batteries are built well and the rubber is nice but I'm less than impressed with the amount of battery and charger failures i had Also i just wanted to point out that the 40v XGT batteries have a shock-absorbing structure and a triple-layer casing for resistance against water and drop impact, I've dropped and knocked mine a few times already and they haven't cracked or anything Great detailed video btw 👍🏻
Comment from : @joshuabush2569

Nice review, can you get also the echo dsrm/dpas for testing?
Comment from : @realmbb

Curious if you can do a comparison of the new HUSQVARNA 522iHD60 with your current hedge trimmers I’m looking to upgrade and wanted some opinions Should I get the 522 or search for a good price on the outgoing 520 Thanks!
Comment from : @db5529

Thanks for another great review, Kai You have a great channel You didn't include a Pellenc i noticed I was thinking of investing in electric gear to start my business A while ago you reviewed the Pellenc Rasion 2 and also the Makita 40v mower I know you liked both Do you use an electric mower in your business and do you have a recommendation after using them both? What would be your preferred electric models of mower, blower, whipper snipper if you were starting out? Thanks again for the informative videos and taking the time to answer questions
Comment from : @SuziWestman

A little surprised you like the Milwaukee as much as you do I found it “decent” at most everything but the competition is really good in string trimmers these days I guess I haven’t really used a bad battery string trimmer but I do prefer my Husky also
Comment from : @db5529

Loving this review! Currently looking to go either Husky or Stihl multi-tool and prices in the UK are roughly equivalent Keep up the great content! brbrHave you tried the 5xx husky series? Would be curious to see how the 3xx compares to the 5xx
Comment from : @eisythetrackstud

I use the Stihl KMA 135 as a battery strimmer, I agree with you about accidentally hitting the power setting switch, drives me crazy The husky looks a really good quality unit, might have to get one
Comment from : @jimhud134

Nice video I run the Stihl you have here and the husky 520 battery whipper and both are great bits of gear Husky has their new 525 battery whipper due very soon which I’m keen to grab My thoughts are it’s hard to go wrong with any brand so dealer network is a key factor and ease of repair is a key factor I’d rather stick with traditional brands like Stihl & Husky for that reason How much nicer is mowing lawns and hedging for a living with battery gear! Thanks for the video
Comment from : @wadebeaumont7570
