The ATLAS BLOWER lasted amount 20 minutes on their 80 v battery. No problem I knew this before I purchased it. My atlas string trimmer lasted thru the trimming and edging my 1/2 acre lot. The pole saw trimmed my daughters yard and was still had charge left after an hour of trimming the neglected trimming.
Atlas is a very impressive machine I used it cut my back yard it was overgrown with weeds & grass 11 plus 11:38 Did a excellent job 50 minutes non stop. Impressive Power!! I have owned several gas weed wackers Atlas is Just as powerful as Good gas powered weed wacker
I just bought one yesterday. I tried it out this morning on some tall Johnson Grass. I ran it about 40 minutes. I am very impressed and only bumped the string once. I am 55 years old and this old gal is not very strong like I was in my younger years. I read that it was heavy and not very balanced. I disagree. Very well balanced for me but I am 5'7". I think it does just as well as the more expensive gas weed eaters IMO. Only took an hour and half to charge battery. 5 stars! ☆☆☆☆☆
Great review thanks , going to head to HF and purchase one,,and ditch the headache 2 cycles..which i have a stack of in shed. And by the way T-M-C . Harrold Annett passed away about two years ago unfortunately
I’ve been happy with the HF trimmer I also have some chainsaws and leaf blower and happy with the performance, yeah my brother drives for TMC and got me the shirt
Yes, it’s a great trimmer, lightweight, plenty of power, quiet, no pull starting, good battery life, and no worries of the carb gumming up when not in use, I was surprised at how much I use the battery trimmers around the farm instead of gas, and surprised at how much I can get done on one charge. Thanks for watching!
My problem. Just bought the Alta’s 80v trimmer and batter and charger. Used twice. Not working now. Replaced trimmer. Charging battery now as well. New set up not working! Any ideas?
Thanks so much for this video - very helpful. I just bought this myself from Harbor Freight. Does this trimmer allow you to reload the thread by tapping on the bottom of the spool (like some trimmers do)? I can't seem to figure that one out. I've been manually pulling the string out by hand whenever it wears out. I couldn't find anything regarding this on the owner's manual either. Thanks in advance!
The trimmer does have the bump feed head, you just pull the trigger and while the head is spinning bump the ground, if it’s not feeding the line it may be tangled up inside the trimmer head, in which case you would need to take off the head, “has two buttons on the sides to release” and respool the line trying not to cross it back and forth.
Mower battery goes 45-60minutes, depending on thickness of grass; front yard. Same for backyard, after charging. Trimmer, can mostly do front and back, one charge. Do you know how many times battery can be charged before it's dead, or can't be charged again ? Limitless. ? Thanks. Made me nervous , standing in road with cars buzzing by, 😮
Yeah and depending on use if you had one battery per tool and used them once a week to mow trim etc, in my area u mow about 7 months out of the year once per week would be roughly 35 times per year so 300 charge cycles divided by 35 weeks would be roughly 8 or 9 years

I have an update. I bought the 80v Atlas Trimmer...its PERFECT for me! Whoo hooo...no more gas and mix!!!!! I love it so far!

I was cutting everything for the hell of it...hahahahaha! I was just so happy...
Pretty nice. I need one because our Gov. said no more gas. Great review. Thank you
I heard that was happening in CA,
You have a moronic Gov, you need move.
My problem. Just bought the Alta’s 80v trimmer and batter and charger. Used twice. Not working now. Replaced trimmer. Charging battery now as well. New set up not working! Any ideas?
Seems like the battery maybe bad not the trimmer
Thanks
I hope you see this black and chrome brother. I drove for TMC awhile.
Awesome! I didn’t actually work for them my brother did and he recently went to another company too.
Do you have the problem when you're edging the wheel kicks towards you ?

Which battery do you have the 80v
4AH or the 2.5AH?
80v 2.5

Most lithium batteries can be charged and discharged 300 to 500 times
Thanks, so battery, 40v may last two years or longer. Harbor Frght had 40v on sale. , $69.99. Need another.

That's good, Thanks
How can i order a replacement head for the 80v string trimmer???
I would contact Harbor Freight and see if they have replacement parts.
Witch way does the head go left or right
Clockwise
Witch one would you recommend
They are Booth pretty good but I like the Echo better, it feels almost just like a gas trimmer and the balance is better than the Harbor Freight
Great video, but I am been wondering can you add the brush cutting attachments like the saw blades and attachments like edger?
Not that I am aware of, you might be able to find something that would fit and be able to make it work but it’s not made for it.
How easy is it to string?
Very easy
@@WilliamsonRidge Thanks. I bought one. Seems very nice.
I’ll probably do a video on restringing it soon. Stay tuned lol
@@WilliamsonRidge please do.
How do you replace the head on the Atlas 80v String trimmer?
Do you mean replace the head entirely or just to restring it?
@@WilliamsonRidge replacing the whole head
I’ll check on that, I haven’t removed the whole head, I’ll get back to you on it
