Ryobi 36V LINE TRIMMER 28CM/33CM review (australian model RLT36X20)

[@personondevice7227]

You should have more subscribers! I have the $499 whisper one with the front drive motor (something like that) and while it’s doing me great, I’m thinking to think I went overboard and should have gone with the standard 36V model. Well since I already have it I’ll keep it. I’m just budgeting to get the 36V mower now, the newer 2022 (I think) model. Never going back to petrol, no getting hands dirty, far less maintenance, less noise and of course no more smell and fumes. Oh and I forgot to mention the costs of oil and topping the Jerry can adding up. Go green! 💚

Many benefits to battery tools, i have whisper one from 18v range and i find it top heavy, i still prefer this 36v one...

Great vid, thank you! Audio is much better in this video.

Cheers for the review man 👍

I’d be interested to see the difference between 18V & 36V in terms of power for home use. Audio with the new mic is good!

Hi, i do have a 18v ryobi trimmer to do a video on actually in next few weeks

[@alft69]

Thanks for the very informative video. I've just discovered your channel as I'm considering buying one of these, but I'm hesitant because the line trimers I've used in the past have all had problems with the bump/line feeding mechanism. I noticed you mentioned yours wasn't working too well also. Has this been an issue for you ?

[@Nedstooltalk]

Hi, yer mine is also playing up as you could see in the video, ill try take the head apart and lube it a bit, hopefully it helps, it could also be line inside stuck a bit...

[@LittleTea62]

my line got stuck inside

[@adoreslaurel]

He has my trouble, you cant disassemble the head to remove the string that is stuck inside, older models have a system where you line up the arrows and it pops apart, can't even unscrew the head from the shaft as they say you can.

[@Nedstooltalk]

Head comes apart very easy, there are 2 knobs on the sides, push them in and just pull it off. I have fixed mine in 2 minutes, line was stuck, gave it some lube and works like a charm now

@@Nedstooltalk Thanks for that, got it sorted, but have re installed the cheap alloy head I got off ebay for about 11 bucks that you just insert short lengthd of line, it came off my broken down ryobi which had motor failure, funny part is i paid 299 bucks for a battery but then found the irreplaceable motor was the problem, new trimmer without battery and old style motor was 279 buck, and a new one with battery and charger and brushless motor was 429 bucks so i bought it and sold the battery for 150 bucks to my neighbour who needed a new one, my loss his gain.
