Our take on the Milwaukee 3006-20 M18 FUEL 18V 17" Dual Battery String Trimmer - Bare Tool

The Milwaukee 3006-20 is a cordless string trimmer in Milwaukee's M18 FUEL line. It runs on two M18 REDLITHIUM batteries and a POWERSTATE brushless motor that Milwaukee rates at 2.5HP peak power and 2.5Nm peak torque, with a variable-speed trigger and two RPM ranges (0-4,900 and 0-6,200). It reaches full throttle in under a second and has an Easy Load trimmer head that takes 0.080", 0.095" or 0.105" line, with a 15" to 17" cutting swath. It suits homeowners and landscapers already on the M18 platform who want gas-like power without pull starts, exhaust or engine upkeep; the trade-off is that it needs two batteries and is sold as a bare tool, so the batteries and charger are extra.
