Our take on the EGO ST1610T 16” POWERLOAD String Trimmer with Telescopic Carbon Fiber Shaft - Bare Tool Only

The EGO ST1610T is a 16-inch cordless string trimmer built around EGO's POWERLOAD system: you feed line and press a button to wind it, with no spool to take apart. It uses a brushless motor, a telescopic carbon fiber shaft and a quick-adjust handle, and it is IPX4 rated for damp conditions. It runs on any EGO 56V ARC Lithium battery, which is sold separately. Against other 56V EGO trimmers it trades a slightly narrower 16-inch swath for the carbon fiber shaft and the easier line loading.

What reviewers say

  • 4.5 / 5906 ratings

Owners rate it highly, with line loading and the light, adjustable shaft as the most common praise. Runtime on small batteries and the bare-tool packaging draw the most complaints.

What people mention
  • Line loadingPraisedOwners say POWERLOAD restringing takes seconds and ends the spool fumbling of older trimmers.
  • Weight and balancePraisedUsers describe it as light and well balanced, with the telescopic shaft helping taller users.
  • RuntimeCriticisedSeveral owners find the run time short on smaller batteries and want a larger pack.
  • VibrationPraisedReviewers note low vibration and a smooth, quiet brushless motor.
  • ValueMixedSome buyers feel the bare-tool setup and premium shaft make it a bigger outlay than basic trimmers.

About the EGO ST1610T 16” POWERLOAD String Trimmer with Telescopic Carbon Fiber Shaft - Bare Tool Only

The EGO POWER+ 16-inch POWERLOAD String Trimmer (ST1610T) has a telescopic carbon fiber shaft. POWERLOAD technology makes reloading line quick: feed the line in, press a button to wind it, and get back to trimming in seconds. There is no spool to take apart.

The lightweight carbon fiber shaft telescopes to match the user's height. A quick-adjust auxiliary handle lets you set a comfortable working position. A high-efficiency brushless motor provides long runtimes, low vibration and long motor life.

The trimmer cuts a 16-inch swath with 0.095-inch dual-line spiral-twist line and uses bump-feed advance. IPX4 weather-resistant construction handles damp conditions. This is the bare tool only. It runs on any EGO 56V ARC Lithium battery, and the battery and charger are sold separately.

Questions and answers

Does the ST1610T come with a battery and charger?
No. It is a bare tool, so you need a separate EGO 56V ARC Lithium battery and charger. Any EGO 56V battery works.
How long does it run on a charge?
EGO rates it at up to 30 minutes per charge with a 2.5Ah battery. Larger Ah packs give longer runtime.
What line does it use?
It takes 0.095-inch dual-line spiral-twist trimmer line and advances it with a bump on the head.
How is it different from other EGO trimmers?
It has the POWERLOAD head and a telescopic carbon fiber shaft, with a 16-inch swath. Other EGO models use a standard spool and some cut wider.
Can the shaft be adjusted for height?
Yes. The carbon fiber shaft telescopes so you can set it to your height, and the auxiliary handle adjusts without tools.
Is it safe in wet grass?
It is IPX4 rated, so it tolerates damp conditions and light rain, though it is not meant for submersion.
