I just found out about these tools after fighting with cords and gas powered BS for 14 years. I love the run time and ergonomic feel to the machines and even more I love that your family was all out doing something with an EGO tool at one point in the video. Team work makes the dream work 👏👏
Suggestion, try using a silicone spray for lubing the blades. When using regular oil you are likely to either kill your plants or make them sick. The silicone spray attracts less debris and is not near as toxic for the plants as oil.
Awesome! Thanks. I love that you mentioned the oil. As an older female who has never worked in the yard I appreciate information that seems obvious to some. I have some small pine tree shoots and some woods behind my house and wasn't sure which one to get. I would have loved to see it cutting some thicker branches
I will have more videos on this in the future. You can't tell here, but when cutting these back as far as I did, I did take out some branches with a 3/4" diameter with ease. It truly has a professional feel to it.
@heaval1, thin oils will not work here. Hedge trimmers need a thick oil that will stay in place as the blades work. I honesty use motor oil. I have had no adverse effects on the bushes that I trim with them. Also, for example, chainsaws use an even thicker oil then motor oil for their chains. Chainsaw bar oil is extremely thick because it has to stay put and be thick enough to lubricate the moving parts. Also, I have had no adverse effects when using my chainsaw on plants that were cut back.
Dude, you need the EGO power wash attachment!! Seriously, thanks for this...you are a major resource. I appreciate your vids."I think I'm in love." I was thinking the same thing.
I really don't know because I haven't tried that, but that is a really good question. I don't see why not, but again, have not tried. Thanks for watching. Check out our website for so many more videos and resources. www.greatwhiteninja.com
Here is our webpage link for EGO, more specifically the Multi Head. I have 4 EGO pages. I have pictures showing the Hedge trimmer with and without the extension. I also have Amazon links below those pics. I have made sure to use only actual Amazon links and not third party, but if Amazon is out they may revert to the next best buying option so double check. www.aroundthehome.org/ego-multi-head.html
It's this one. www.amazon.com/EGO-Power-MHT2001-Multi-Combo/dp/B07VXK6R2C?crid=2GQQ7F6PFRB2L&keywords=ego+multi+head+hedge+trimmer&qid=1659389401&sprefix=ego+multi+head+hed%2Caps%2C128&sr=8-2&linkCode=ll1&tag=greatwhitenin-20&linkId=3a31b227f47c5057d3def978a7d2dd93&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl
It is a little on the heavy side, but you can really feel the professional build of it. I don't know the exact weight of it. Now about the battery, I was able to do those bushes in the video with the smaller 2.5 ah battery on one charge. I will be honest, I have not done longer tests to see how long the batteries will run with this attachment. Thanks for watching.

Ok, so I believe that you are asking if I suggest that you buy the EGO multi-head system or the individual regular tools. That really depends on what you need. So, the string trimmer attachment for the multi-head is just like the regular string trimmer, but the other attachments are quite unique. That is not an easy question. The multi-head gives you the pole saw and the pole hedge trimmer which give you so much reach from the ground. Can't get that with anything else. I guess I would say if you have small trees and small hedges then you don't need the height advantage that the Multi-Head system gives you and just buy the standard tools. But if you could benefit from the height advantages that the Multi-head can give you then definitely buy it. It is amazing. And it also gives you a cultivator and a power sweeper option. Here is my web page link with all my EGO videos on it along with other EGO recourses that hopefully give you the info you need to make the best decision. www.aroundthehome.org/ego-power-plus.html
Around The Home If quality is the same, I can save some money and have the extra reach with the multi head system it sounds like the way to go. Thank you!
I have the ego blower and edger and love them both. I've been wanting to buy this attachment but cant see myself spending so much money for it. Ego is a great brand but I really wish they would come down on their prices. I heard there is a universal attachment that will fit the ego trimmer and it's only about $50 so I'm gonna check that out. Maybe I'll make a video about it. Nice video btw.
I know they are on the more expensive side, but it is a pretty heavy duty attachment. Thanks for watching. Don't forget to stop by our website www.greatwhiteninja.com
I went up 20 feet on a step ladder with one of those things and just about killed myself falling off so just a word to the wise - stay on the ground. and what is growing on the side of that house. looks like black mould.
Tell your friend you just tell them that's what's happening. Course, it helps if you start at a young age. Starting when they are pre-teen / teens already will come with challenges.
I Have almost every ego tool that is made I am not impressed with the cutting ability of the hedge tremor it keeps struggling All the time making cuts On bushes it shouldn't have a problem with. Very disappointed. I have better results from a hand held battery operated pruning clipper
That's interesting, I have both the standalone hedge trimmer and the attachment for the Multi-Head. I am impressed with their cutting power and have had no trouble cutting back large bushes and trees with them. Small trees, not suggesting cutting limbs like a pole saw.
Honey you cut a hole right her in the side of the house. Look, right here in the bathroom. Now the whole world can see me when I'm dressing. Why did you do that? Now you are thinking...if only Ego made a decapitation attachment

You could also spray some Pam vegetable oil on the edger . Mineral oil can contaminate the plants that you cut.

Here was the washing video that I said I needed to make in that video. No power washer required. th-cam.com/video/oPgNQ6fyaWc/w-d-xo.html
Good job. Nice explanation. No rock music! 😁👍
So glad to help! Thank you for watching. Check out hundreds more of our videos at www.aroundthehome.org
I'm sold. Thanks for the video.
Our pleasure! Here is our webpage with everything EGO www.aroundthehome.org/ego-power-plus.html
Can you use it like a sickle mower for doing small brush and weed trimming.
I really don't know because I haven't tried that, but that is a really good question. I don't see why not, but again, have not tried. Thanks for watching. Check out our website for so many more videos and resources. www.greatwhiteninja.com
Can you tell me the end to end measurement of this fully extended? Wondering if its at least 8 ft

Run time with the 2.5ah battery ?
That's a good question. I don't have enough bushes to trim to use more then one charge.
Multi head and attachment or individual tools?
I really don't know what you are asking.
Around The Home attachehment platform for ego trimmer chainsaw etc or buy each tool as a stand alone. Thanks

Wait, I'm confused about how something works... How did you get BOTH kids off video games and working in the yard? Asking for a friend...
