The other really notable feature of the new EGO Carbon Fiber String Trimmer is the Powerload auto-feeding head. Anyone who has wrestled with loading fresh line into a string trimmer head understands this. Some systems work better than others—but none work as easily as the Powerload system. However, weight distribution plays a big part in how comfortable the string trimmer actually feels. The feather-light shaft doesn’t mean a whole lot if the trimmer is unbalanced. You wind up having to physically overcompensate by keeping the heavy side lifted up.

Did a lot of research before buying into their system because I have some Dewalt 20V stuff but I’m not a fan of their OPE. Makita would have been my second choice for home use. This tear down review of the Ego blower highlights the option . The long service time is a well-known issue within the community.
I always have one battery sitting on the charger and I am using the other. This trimmer looks great and ‘almost’ makes me want to start mowing and trimming my yard again. I also used to have the Stihl gas trimmer. A couple of years ago I finally gave up the fight and started having someone mow and edge every other week and I just mowed in between because I hated edging so much. I still get to maintain plant beds and I am waiting on the miracle yard tool that will help me keep bermuda and zoysia grass out of the beds. The included battery lasts about 20 minutes depending on how hard the trimmer is working and other factors.
Then press the POWERLOAD button and watch it wind into the head. It winds slowly enough so that there is little chance of the string disappearing completely into the head requiring you to start over. Loading string is now something I look forward to instead of dreading. The EGO Power+ 15” POWERLOAD String Trimmer is just that—a trimmer.
The actual model number is the EGO ST1623 and it includes a carbon fiber shaft that extends and retracts 6-inches. The PowerLoad feature automatically pulls the .095″ string trimmer line into the head by just holding a button. The Line IQ feature automatically senses when the line is short, then it automatically feeds out the right amount of line. This ensures that you never run out of line. The former model was $30 less for the kit without the carbon fiber shaft and Powerload head . While more expensive than many residential battery-powered string trimmers, this model has the features to back up the premium price.
