No. The only DeWalt tool I can think of off the top of my head that works this way is their shop vac, like the 2 gallon model.
That is correct, no extension plug on the trimmer or blower.

There is also a DeWalt shop fan that can take an extension cord that I have, but I believe that is discontinued at this point.

Anyone use the trimmer, looking for feedback. How's feeding Line, balance and durability?

Was looking at Ego but already have dewalt tools….
My trimmer broke after a couple uses when I got this deal last time...

I have both and bought it for about this price 2 years ago. Most likely you won't find a better deal for this combo. The trimmer is not bad, I haven't used others but it seems to work, not as well as I'd like but for the price you can't complain. The trimmer I heard is hard to feed, some folks just buy the whole trimmer head and insert but after using it 5-6 times I haven't had to replace it.

The blower isn't the best, you'll find that it's a subpar blower, the nozzle doesn't concentrate it as well as I'd like but it gets the job done. The trigger can be controlled depending on how hard you press, and the 5.0 battery does make it a little heavy for more than 1 minute of blowing. I use it to dry my ceramic coated car. It does work but it is much weaker than an Ego and the battery life is the worst part for the blower. It lasts 5 min.

If you don't mind the inefficiencies of both blower and trimmer and instead you value price and well built items, then this is for you! This is my starter kit and I plan to eventually upgrade, but works fine for $200 so can't complain.

For whatever reason, the combo was 169.99 when I opened the URL to a Dallas store, but when I changed it to a local (Houston area) store, it went up to 199.99.

Long story short, shipping was just under 18 bucks, so I made the order with the Dallas location as my store and have it coming to my house for 12-13 bucks cheaper than ordering it here and picking it up at the store.

Got one for $169.00+tax in Bay Area. Looks like a good starter kit as long as blower is good.

I know the trimmer is not good as I tried it last week from another combo I purchased from Home Depot for $269. Going to return that kit.
Wonder if people have any complaints about the blower.

I need a starter kit too, just need to blow dirt really and twigs/leaves.

I found big B is $169 too but Ace is $199. $169 seems like a deal for this….hoping it does a fair job for 1500 sq ft of grass.

Be sure to check your local and surrounding stores to see if they have it for $169. My store was $199 at the time of me posting, but they then changed it to $169!

Put on a ECHO
Speed-Feed 400 Universal Trimmer Head and .095 crossfire trimmer line on the trimmer and it will work a lot better.

I have it, line feeds fine, it's a pretty easy to use tool, and I've definitely dropped it by accident a few times and it survived. I actually bought this exact kit, it's been great, I use it often, I highly recommend it.
I bought a similar deal through Ace 2 years ago. Same blower but my line trimmer has a case aluminum housing. It's been solid, only issues I've had are during summer when it's hot out. Before I finish trimming, it just stops working for a while and I've concluded its due to overheating. Curious if you've experienced this with your unit. Outside of 80*F days, its fine to go until the job is done.

Blower's been solid. Great for popping the doors and windows open on a breezy day then "power dusting" the house. If you have indoor cats or dusty people in your house, definitely do this and be disgusted at how you've been living. lol

Thank you! Is the eater telescoping on no? Being 5'7 sucks lol

I may jump on this as I already have 5ah, and lots of 2..5 batteries.
5' 4.5" here. No problems for me. Been a couple years since I bought mine, so I cant remember if the front handle position can be adjusted. Having spent a lot of time with Stihl line trimmers, I am well aware that position of that handle can greatly affect handling and ergonomics of the unit.

I pulled the trigger, $169 can't be beat! Was looking at ego and they have their own downfalls and well, I'd need more batteries lol

I also bought a similar kit 2 years ago, my line trimmer has a has aluminum housing by the line head. I haven't re-spooled the sucker yet and have trimmed, easily, 40 times.

That said, I'm not generally trimming around rocks/sharp objects and when I'm trimming around hard landscaping or sidewalks, I'm pretty careful. My background is building and grounds maintenance and have spent 1000s of hours line trimming with Stihl FS-200/220/250s. All about that finesse.

As far as the blower goes, it does get more "power" with larger batteries. I generally use a 6ah and it does a decent job. People definitely shouldn't expect anywhere near gas powered blowers. Also ran Stihl BR-550/600 for...so many hours (I worked in a park, lots of trees and winstorms). If you're out in the woods or have a lot of property, electric probably isn't the way. In town or a small yard...perfect.

All Dewalt here and got the Ego trimmer. The line IQ thing is a game changer.
