Pros & Cons
Pros
Backpack link has a * battery that you plug into your device. I like it and use it but i wish the * battery was not as heavy as it is.
The thing is suprisingly torquey and for example has no problem going through fresh oak limbs whole width of the blade. The trigger design is nice, you don't need to press the safety each cut. So much more run time compared to my makita 18/36v tools.
People who are posting negative reviews need to read the manual. Ease of use. Hp is sufficient.
It's not bad, just feels awkward? Very convenient. Bump feed works great. I look like a ghostbuster and my family rag on me a bit but it’s totally worth it.
Cons
The stx and companion 3 point brush cutter does better is cut small thorn bushes, but not trees over 1/4 inch. Caused weird behavior with my blower.
Highlights
Quality
It was a somewhat heavy with the 4ah battery already and i plan to get 6 or 12ah batteries to improve runtime.
With the 4ah battery on the backpack, the trimmer is much easier to use.
That is an indication that the cord is pressed in all the way when you see no greeni’m having issues with the backpack battery ... Read More

Price
Very well made, nice warranty but i just wish it didn't cost me so much.
Competitiveness
She tried it on with a 5ah battery and the blower attached and she really likes it.
I also tested it using a powerhead+ with string trimmer and hedge trimmer attachments, both ran fine.
