It sounds like you don't really understand how FlexVolt batteries work.
Learn Elementary Physics and you'll understand.

Dewalt isn't scamming anyone; you simply just don't get it.

Delete your post ASAP, it's embarrassing.
No issues with fastenersinc at all and I've bought from them about 10 times. If you are buying just one Dewalt thing from them, they ship it in the box it comes in and they seal the whole thing with packing tape, some people hate this, I don't mind because it won't get ruined even if left out in the rain.

No coupon codes but you probably won't get charged tax. Their sales are usually the cheapest for Dewalt stuff.

If you're getting something over 100 bucks already, check out their closeout section for stuff you probably don't need but would get if it's a closeout price. I wound up getting a set of aluminum pipe wrenches I wouldn't have bought otherwise. Better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it.

It kinda depends on your state and the laws they pass. My state forces companies in other states to collect our state tax. That isn't a federal thing, just a state law, another state (like most) won't force out of state sales to collect tax. Some states don't even have a sales tax at all.

Both Tractor Supply Company and Rural King have it. TSC is the same price (model ends with S, which either implies "sale" or a retail model), while RK is $5 more and it has been on sale for about a month.

I've had this unit plus the edger, hedge trimmer and blower attachments for 2+ years.

The string trimmer and edger attachments make it worth it. Edging is so much faster and neater. The hedge trimmer is solid with a nice reach. The blower is so-so. I do think I'm going to buy a dedicated DeWalt blower in the offseason.

Only issue I've ever had was the bolt on the edger attachment could me be loosened, I bought a new attachment which is highly preferable to buying a whole new edger machine.

How does this compare to EGO trimmers?
Better. Project Farm did a video on a number of battery trimmers and this one easily took 1st

That certainly explains it. I'm in California. There's never enough taxes paid to satisfy this state!! Peace

How hard is it to reload the string? My EGO is a bit of a pain sometimes.
I didn't get the dewalt trimmer with mine (bought a bare powerhead on ebay as I had a busted attachment capable trimmer already) but from the feedback I've seen, similar to other dewalts, its not great. I recommended earlier in the thread and always do on almost any trimmer thread to switch to the Husqvarna T35. They sell the head or the "universal" head with a few extra nuts/washers etc to help fit it, I've never had to use any of the parts and pieces but either way, it's massively better than any other trimmer head I've dealt with. Well worth the $30 investment imho, I swap it out to the "stock" head when selling my old unit and then use it on the "new" unit. Though I doubt I'll be upgrading again any time soon since this thing is killer, unless maybe I get a better trimmer section as the one I have doesn't have the greatest guard and is a little gritty sounding.
