So like many I hate yard work. It's friggin hot in Florida. I have a kid that mows the front of the house but the back cannot be mowed because I have solar panels everywhere. Plus the kid just has a riding mower its not like he's doing the worlds best job. But I'm lazy, I have health issues that screw up my body and well it sucks. I bought this because I needed to do the backyard as well as clean up the front lawn. I had never heard of this company but the more research I did, it kept coming up as either a top choice or close. It had lots of good reviews so I said sure I'll try it! I was torn between which model to buy but ended up going with the top of the line one the 16" diameter with the automagic line release when chopping away. I always HATED putting line in my gas trimmer, it was always something and just was irritating. I liked that it came with line pre-loaded and how the system works to load new line when its time. It also came with an extra set of the yellow/orange line. So I went to town with this thing, I chopped down all kinds of weeds and edged the front of the house. You can kinda feel and even hear when the system releases more line. I'm a trained engineer and I'm very stumped on how it knows it needs to release line. I abuse my tools and this thing is a champ! The only major gripe I have is that they don't sell branded line in 16" diameter yellow/orange line replacement. They have 14 and 15 but no 16. Weird. So I bought their premium braided line which I will have to use one day. So far the line holds up well. The battery well its basically a 60V Lithium Ion setup that stores 300wh of power. I happen to have as a hobby batteries! (remember the solar? yeah) The battery life was approx 50 minutes give or take. If you let the battery sit a few mins in between jobs Li Ion batteries by their chemistry will slightly increase the voltage of the battery. The charger is nice and fast, I don't think its loud but I have all kinda of fans and gadgets with fans. Ironically I build Lithium battery packs to power parts of my own, that recharge via solar. So I thought to myself "what if I built a bigger battery and stored it in like a backpack? Guess what the company sells!!! They have a backpack style power system but its not using a different battery. So I picked up a backpack and cut away everything I was only interested in the wire and the connection system. I used Lithium Iron Phosphate batteries(LFP) which are safer than Li-ion. And I built a mega battery that stores around 3kWh of power. So I gained 10X power. Of course that pack is heavy so its more of a 'I wonder if I can do it' but its nice not to ever worry if I'm going to run out of power. I also got the strap for it, mostly for my g/f. Bleh its ok its not the best and I bet one of my rifle slings would do better lol. Some things to remember for safety about Liion batteries. NEVER leave them. completely discharged for a long time, now I'm sure the battery management system on-board takes care of this by calling out "dead" at a safe voltage for storage. Rule of thumb for extended store for those type of batteries is to store them around 30% full. It's actually not great to store it completely charged either for long periods of no use. This is true for your Telsa, and anything else using LFP and Li-ion batteries. Also best practice is the wait a bit before charging it after you just ran it for 50 minutes. If you can, give it 2-3 hrs of rest before recharging it will make your battery last much longer if you follow basically rules of Lithium based batteries. I'm a battery nerd I told ya, engineer, and solar DIY hobbyist. Do not charge or leave your battery somewhere that gets crazy hot OR cold. I'm very happy I went with I call a 'no-name brand' trimmer. Even though it sounds like it IS a name brand up there with DeWalt and the others. I really do hope they make more of the pre-cut 16" string. It's a PITA to cut sting, drop it hot water to get it uncurled and then feed it into the trimmer. I love the already cut stuff!! String seems to be lasting well, I beat it hard. I have had "delayed" automatic line release happen a few times. I'm talking 2-3 minutes tops. I don't think you can go wrong w/this brand and exact model. I love it. Beats my gas powered one that would just leave me stinking of gasoline exhaust and had to deal with the stupid line. Plus the gas powered one likely doesn't work anymore its been sitting rotting for a long time. I may try to take the engine out of it and see if I can play with it. Yeah I wrote a book. I do that sometimes. Whatever. Yellow/orange line = 5/5 Automagic line release = 4.9/5. (only cause of that delay sometimes) Weight = 5/5 (and I have a bad back) Toughness = 5/5 Cutting through deep stuff! - 5/5 Strap = 2/5 Battery = 5/5 (50 min runtime is respectable) Charger noise = 5/5 (I dont think its loud but YMMV) Cost = 4/5 Overall = 5/5

To set the stage, I'm 87 years old with hands pretty well crippled by rheumatoid arthritis. A few years ago I volunteered to do trimming for a non-profit Nature Education Center, an old farm with extensive lawns, driveways, fence lines and structures. Lots of lawn grass, high grass, weeds including thistles, briars, etc.. Due to terrain, exposed rocks and tree roots, etc., there are extensive stretches the riding mower can't access so I actually do a fair amount of lawn mowing with the trimmer. I first used an EGO 1500 series trimmer with two 2.5 AH batteries and an accessory EGO shoulder strap. In two-plus seasons, I trimmed for a couple of hours almost every day that weather permitted so the trimmer received heavy use. It refused to run in early September, 2023. The new EGO 1623T offered some attractive features so I purchased it rather than have the 1500 repaired. Assembly posed minor problems. In a couple of spots machine screws have to pass through a drilled hole in one part and thread into a hole in a mating part. Alignments were not perfect and required a fair amount of strength to correct. However, given the machine that emerged, this is certainly no deal breaker. I was concerned that the new 4.0 AH battery might make the unit unpleasantly heavy. Not to worry. The increased weight is barely noticeable and the unit's balance is quite good. The increased battery capacity saves a lot of travel time getting spares. What amazed me most of all about the trimmer is how long the supplied spool of trimmer string lasted. I started using the trimmer on Sept. 6th. The last of the supplied string kicked out on Sept. 21st. The automatic line feed feature worked perfectly the entire time. The combination of the high-capacity battery, not having to bump-feed, not losing string to accidental bump-feeds and the durability of the EGO string allows long periods of uninterrupted work. I had previously used non-EGO string on large spools but have switched to EGO string for its durability. Needless to say, the EGO string loading process remains as painless as ever. Just take a 14 ft. length of string, pass one end into a hub eyelet, through the hub and out the other eyelet, even up the ends and push the close-by green button. The motor clicks away and the string in spooled inside. The 56 volt batteries are easy to grip and handle and they install and remove easily. I found early on with the prior 1500 series model that I needed a shoulder strap to take some of the weight and bought the AP1500 EGO strap. My experience with that strap has been disappointing with respect to longevity. At the machine end the nylon strap threads through a rectangular ring and is stitched back to itself to complete the attachment. The ring has an attached hook that clips onto a fitting on the trimmer tube. The problem is that the stitching used to close the loop around the ring is inadequate and fails prematurely. I have 3 otherwise-usable EGO straps that are useless because that stitching failed. I tried a generic strap but found the shoulder pad is much shorter than EGO's. That makes it much fussier to position on the strap such that it locates properly on the shoulder. By the way, I've seen reviews of the strap complaining that the shoulder pad doesn't attach to the strap and, instead, slides along it. In fact, the pad has to slide along the strap as the strap is adjustable in length. How it's adjusted determines where the pad should be located. One has only to pull the strap taut, slide the pad so it's centered at the top of the loop, lift the machine with a hand under the pad, pass the strap over the head and drop it on the shoulder. Other than the mentioned failure mode, the strap is well made and has an excellent shoulder pad. My fingers are misaligned due to the arthritis. With the 1500 trimmer I found it difficult to keep my index finger from slipping off the trigger. I improved the situation by wrapping rubber bands around the slippery plastic trigger to improve the grip. On that machine the trigger lock is a thumb-operated button. On the 1623 the trigger lock is a small lever at the forward end of the trigger. It is easily operated by the side of the finger being used to control the trigger. I find no tendency for my finger to slip off the trigger. The adjustments for tube length and the handle position are secure and operate smoothly. I routinely operate the unit in the lower speed range. My sense is that it's roughly equivalent in effectiveness to the 1500 at that setting. I switched it to the high setting to get a sense of what that offered and concluded that the speed wasn't needed and was therefore draining the battery unnecessarily. Bottom line: I'm glad my 1500 failed as the 1623 offers so much more convenience and productivity, albeit at a price premium.
