With gas-like performance, all 3 pro-grade cordless tools feature powerful brushless motors and use a shared 56-volt platform with 2-amp-hour (2-Ah) and 4-amp-hour (4- Ah) batteries. The tools may be purchased with or without batteries and chargers, further leveraging the investment. The lightweight T3000 string trimmer uses a solid shaft for smooth, fast acceleration and a 1.4:1 gear ratio for increased cutting torque. Typical run time with the 2-Ah battery is 29 minutes with a 12-inch cutting diameter and 22 minutes with a 14-inch cutting diameter. The 4-Ah battery increases run times to 60 minutes (12-inch cutting diameter) and 45 minutes (14-inch cutting diameter).
