For those who think the 25cc Makita whipper is the "bee's knees" and it handles all the heavy stuff you can throw at it>>>>>
You need to put a real tool in your hands!!!
I tried it on a small patch of very overgrown paspalum and I was getting through the same stuff at least twice as quick with a 43cc Kawasaki.
Horses for courses.
Most of my jobs nowadays are regular mows and I find the battery trimmer is perfect for these. If I have an overgrown job to do, I break out the brushcutter.
I've only started the 25cc petrol Husky twice since I got the battery trimmer a couple of months ago.
