RAN OUT OF JUICE

 NO, not the new cordless trimmer, it was great!

"I" ran out of juice, ha.


I had the new trimmer fully charged and ready to go.  I haven't been able to use a trimmer for a few weeks in this area.  The mower won't fit in the small areas and then our  trimmer/weedeater died and we had to get a new one.

We opted for the battery operated EGO professional powerhead plus.  It worked great.  More on that later in another post.  As for me, not so much.

It was so hot, I didn't get many pictures since I wanted to just get right to it, but here are a few.


Here is a "before".

Believe it or not, there's a round raised bed in between those two square beds.


There it is!


Here's another raised bed before pic.

This is the fig tree.  At least somewhere in there is a fig tree in a raised bed.


Oh yeah, there it is, ha!

The trimmer was great and I left with a little more charge on it but dang it, it was just SO hot. 


Feels like was 107.  That was at 1:26pm.  Yep, that's when I decided to call it a day and head back into town.

The new trimmer was great, as I mentioned, will do a full post review on it later.  There is a turbo boost mode which runs down the battery more, but you only do that for heavy grass.  We had some heavy grass.  But still, I could have finished had I not run out of juice, ha. 

It will just have to be a "trimming in two parts".

  1. Don't overdo it, the weeds will wait on you and be there next week. I had to have a new roof put on in March, I felt bad for the men, it was already hot here in Florida in March. Here it is hurricane season again until November and we had a tornado south of us last week. They are predicting a bad storm season for us this year.

  4. Be careful. You are overdoing it if you are that exhausted. Weeds will wait.

  5. Your new weed eater did a great job! I imagine your fruit trees are happy to have the weeds and grass gone.
    It’s good that you’re listening to your body, especially with this heat and high humidity.
