    Hey Fred,

    I'm interested in your experience with the AEG18v snipper. How is the bump head design? Are you using the original or did you change it to a speed feed if its possible. Does the head...

    Re: Stihl battery power

    I have read (on the internet ) some negative reviews about the RMA510 being hard to push. The point made was that the blade being high up in the deck means the deck is likely to drag over the ground....

    Re: Stihl battery power

    Anyone got a RMA 510 21" cordless Sthil mower?

    I'm about to pull the trigger on one. The lure of being able to use the AP battery that I already have is strong.

    I also notice on the Sthil...

    I did have a look at the fsa130r and the kma130 at the Sthil shop yesterday. I couldn't try it out because they didn't have the battery on hand.

    The KMA130 is an interesting choice. Let us know how it goes. Are the Kombi tools for petrol and battery the same? I couldn't figure it out from the sthil website.

    How do you go with the FSA130 cord for edging? Do you use backpack or the AP batteries? Does it slow you down having to put on the belt /backpack?
