The Pro 80V 16 Inch Cordless String Trimmer features advanced brushless motor technology, delivering major torque, power and life – with virtually no maintenance required. The incredible power & performance is equivalent to a 27cc gas string trimmer, without the added weight, pesky pull start and noxious fumes of gas and oil. The handheld brushless blower is capable of high-velocity air speeds up to 170 MPH and airflow up to 730 CFM to easily handle the toughest blowing tasks like clearing wet & heavy leaves, grass, and other stubborn debris. The Greenworks Pro 80V family of tools meet the challenge with a universal battery system that works across multiple products, high-efficiency motors, and innovative smart technology.

I concur that the product page does not appear to mention anything about the free battery. But, just as a test, I did confirm that it shows up in the cart.
Pretty sad that the features, specifications, and product comparison all state that this comes with a 2.5Ah battery. Yet the title and an answer to a question both say 2.0Ah.
*EDIT: kinda glad I didn't get the bundle. I ended up with the higher end tools at an amazing deal.

Just got the carbon trimmer and compared to my Husqvarna 128, I get the work done super quickly and very little pain or fatigue. I was practically speed walking to keep up with how quickly it was getting the work done before sunset. But with how quiet it is; I wouldn't have minded going longer if needed. My Husqvarna will only be used for bigger jobs as I have a tiller, brush blade and sling strap for it. Easily got stuff done 15 20 minutes quicker. I have lots of old cracked sidewalks on a corner lot and flower beds and bushes around the house and above ground pool deck.
I was mainly buying it for the battery and to complete the major tool sets of the 80v lineup.
21" mower, 16" chainsaw, blower, carbon weed trimmer. Yet to use the 1900 psi washer. Been liking all the other tools so far.
Costco changed the warranty to 4 years if I remember correctly
One more thing about battery tools is that lithium batteries are happiest/most stable around 50% charge. I've told my Dad this, but he always keeps them fully charged so they're ready for use. I would only charge them up before I intended to use them. We've killed one battery so far. Keeping them fully charged through the winter is a bad practice!
Or you can just buy the blower for $185 and get 1x 80V 2.5ah battery + 1x 80V 2.0ah battery + 1x charger. Or buy the trimmer for $175 and get 2x 80V 2.0ah batteries + 1x charger.
For context, on best buy's website the charger retails for $100, on sale currently for $66 and the 80V 2.0ah batteries retail for $150 each at best buy and costco currently has a 80V 2.0ah 2x pack with no charger for $200. So for $40 more you're getting an extra $266 to $366 in parts depending how you value it.
In addition, for any of the deals above, you can add on a 80V 4.0ah battery for $55 off the $230 standard price, bringing it down to $175. If you plan on buying 2 80V 4.0ah batteries then costco is cheaper with their 2x 80V 4.0ah pack for $300.
