Weed wacker differences - buy what you need
Electric vs. Gas
The very first question that you will have to ask yourself before deciding on which weed wacker to buy, is "Electric or Gas?" Nowadays many outdoor power tools come in electric varieties so choosing an electric model over gas might make sense for you. In general gas power models have more kick to them, meaning they can handle thicker brushy areas, where electric weed wackers, tend to lose momentum and might not be capable of handling larger yards. So the first key is understanding the size of your lawn and that distincion might nock electric models out of the equation to begin. For mid size and small yards though, an electric model might be exactly what you are looking for. Electric weed wackers are typically lighter than gas powered, and easier to maintain too, since you don't have to gas them up, or change out the oil.
Straight Shaft vs. Curved Shaft
Electric or gas weed wackers both come in straight shaft or curved shaft models. This means exactly what it sounds like. The straight shaft models are typically used more so by lawn care specialists and landscapers. They tend to be able to reach more in hard to trim areas and also can be easily broken down and switched with other weed wacker attachments, like leaf blowers, edgers, saws etc.. The downsize to the straight is the weight of them, and that is why the curved shaft models made an appearance. Curved shaft weed wackers are the trimmer of choice for homeowners because of the ergonomic design and lightweight.
2-cycle vs 4-cycle
Lastly you will need to decide on the engine type if you go with a gas powered weed wacker. They come in 2 stroke or 4 stroke engines. They are also called 2 and 4 cycle engines. The main difference is the type f fuel you will use, where for a 2 stroke engine the fuel will be a mix of oil and gas, where the 4 stroke takes gas only. 4 strokes are making a greater appearance in the weed wacker industry because they are also known to be more environmentally friendly since they don't give off as much emissions as the 2 stroke weed wacker does.
So there you have the main differences you will need to know when buying a weed wacker. For more information regarding weed wackers please visit our website www.weedwackerstore.com
