Beware of bad batteries on the Black & Decker cordless grass string trimmer

July 2nd, 2009

I bought the Black and Decker 18v cordless grass trimmer/edger because I was sick and tired of pulling on my gas powered trimmer’s pull starter. I was keen on going electric but I did not want to drag around a cord. The Black & Decker cordless grass string trimmer was a good price and promised everything that I needed. When I first used it, I thought that all my grass trimming problems had been solved. However, the following week I pulled the trimmer out again and the battery did not last very long anymore. I couldn’t even get 30 minutes out of both the supplied batteries combined. The worst thing about it is that you can’t charge both batteries at the same time. Since it’s a cheap cordless grass trimmer I decided to just bring it back and try a different brand.
