Best Battery Weed Eaters With Blade Heads and No String

As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases.

A battery operated weed eater no string model uses a blade head or a stringless cutting attachment instead of a nylon line, and it runs on a rechargeable pack rather than a cord or gas. This roundup covers six battery-powered models from the product data, and it sorts them by what their listings state about battery packs, weight, telescoping reach, cutting width and included blades. Where a listing does not state a value, the post says so instead of guessing.

Quick answer

  • For a no-string head, look for listings whose titles say “No-String” or “Stringless”: the AYSLCKR and ALSO GO models do.
  • Two 2.0Ah or 2000mAh packs are the most common setup in this group, with runtimes listed between about 30 and 90 minutes.
  • Weights in the group run from 2.65 pounds to 5.95 pounds, so the lightest model suits long edging sessions better.
  • Several models list four blade types, including saw and metal blades for thicker brush, while others list three.

How to choose a battery weed eater with no string

Start with the head type. A no-string trimmer feeds its cutting element by a blade or stringless design, so you do not reload nylon line. Listings in this group use different terms: some say “No-String” in the title, some say “Stringless”, and others sell a kit that includes both nylon blades and steel blades. Read the bullets for the blade types included in the box before you buy, because a no-string head with only plastic blades will not handle thick brush the way a metal or saw blade does.

Next, check the battery setup. The pack is the main limit on how long you can work, so compare the number of batteries, the amp-hour rating and the stated runtime. Some listings give a runtime per battery, and others give a combined figure. Treat the stated numbers as the listing’s claim, since the product data here does not include independent runtime tests.

Finally, check reach and weight. A telescoping shaft lets you work without bending, and the listings in this group list shaft lengths from about 33 to 57 inches. A lighter tool reduces arm fatigue on long jobs, while a heavier one can feel more stable on tough growth. The weight you care about is the one stated on the listing, and the table below puts those figures side by side.

The six models in detail

1. AYSLCKR 3 in 1 No-String Battery Weed Wacker (B0H6XCLHXT)

The listing title calls this a No-String model, and it is the only one in the group that uses that exact wording in its title. The bullets state a brushless motor at 18,000 rpm, two 2000mAh batteries with working time up to 90 minutes, and a telescoping pole that adjusts from 33 to 47 inches. The head is listed with four cutting types: a plastic blade for delicate grass, a rhombus blade for thick weeds and small shrubs, a U-blade for plants and reeds, and a saw blade for branches. The listing also gives a weight of 3.28 pounds, a noise figure of 72 decibels and a dual on/off button intended to reduce accidental starts. The bullets describe a weed splash guard as well. This model fits a buyer who wants the most blade options at the lowest stated weight.

2. XGFDRE Cordless Weed Wacker for Dewalt 20V MAX (B0GXVWQLS5)

This is a tool-only listing. The bullets say the battery and charger are not included, and they list Dewalt 20V MAX battery models DCB200, DCB201, DCB203, DCB204, DCB205, DCB206 and others as compatible. If you already own a Dewalt 20V battery, this model avoids buying a second pack. The specs give a cutting width of 8 inches, a weight of 4.3 pounds and a telescopic length of 45 to 57 inches. The package lists four interchangeable blade attachments: a manganese steel saw-type blade for thicker shrubs, metal blades for thick weeds, a weed brush for moss and rust, and trimmer line for soft lawns. The head angle adjusts from 0 to 90 degrees and the auxiliary handle rotates 180 degrees. The listing also describes a dual-button safety lock, which requires both buttons to be pressed at once. The package includes a grass cutting line, so this model is a no-string head that can still run line on some settings.

3. VIBOGEN Electric Weed Wacker, 2 x 4.0Ah (B0GVHWWV8F)

The title calls this a battery powered lawn trimmer, and the bullets do not describe it as no-string. Its auto-feed line system releases 0.4 inches of line per press, and the listing says the line feeds without bumping. Two 4.0Ah lithium batteries are listed with 60 to 90 minutes of use. The cutting head is listed at 9000 rpm with a 12-inch cutting swath. The 2-in-1 design converts between trimming and edging. At 5.95 pounds, it is the heaviest model in this roundup, and the listing presents that weight as balanced. The shaft is detachable for storage, but the listing does not state a length. Pick this one for a wider swath and a longer battery figure, and accept the extra weight.

4. ASTARNING 4 in 1 Cordless Weed Eater (B0H73ZFPH4)

This model gives four blade types: nylon blades for soft grass, steel string blades for tall grass, metal blades for thick weeds and hedges, and saw blades for pruning. The listing states two 2000mAh batteries with over 60 minutes of trimming on a full charge, a 20,000 rpm motor and a weight of 3.28 pounds. The telescoping pole runs 35 to 47 inches and the multi-angle handle turns from 0 to 180 degrees. The cutting head adjusts from 0 to 90 degrees. The bullets also describe dual safety switches and a metal blade installation warning: do not change the blade while the unit is powered on. It is a sensible choice for buyers who want four blade types at the same weight as the AYSLCKR model.

5. ALSO GO 6 in Stringless Electric Weed Wacker (B0HM3PGJV9)

The title says Stringless, and the body says the unit has a 6-inch stringless design with three replaceable blade types: plastic blades for soft grass, straight metal blades for dense weeds and alloy saw blades for thick shrubs. The listing gives an 11,000 rpm brushless motor, a weight of 2.65 pounds and a shaft that extends from 33 to 47 inches. The cutting head rotates 0 to 90 degrees. The batteries are described as two 24V 2000mAh packs with up to 30 minutes of combined runtime, which is the shortest runtime in this group. The bullets also mention a dual-switch safety lock and a quiet brushless motor. This is the lightest model in the roundup and it suits short jobs, edging and tight spaces better than long mowing sessions.

6. reffmov 4 in 1 No String Trimmer With Blade (B0GSF67WRL)

The title reads No String Trimmer with Blade, and the bullets describe a 4-in-1 unit with three blade types: alloy saw blades for thick shrub branches, stainless steel blades for older weeds and reeds, and a dedicated edging blade. The listing gives a 650W motor, a speed of 8,500 rpm and two 2000mAh batteries with 60 to 80 minutes of working time. A detachable wheel kit converts the trimmer into a 90-degree wheeled edger. The listing states a weight of about 4 pounds. It does not state a shaft length, so compare it to the other models if reach matters to you. The batteries are listed as compatible with a single platform, but the listing data does not name a platform.

Who each option suits

Buyers who already own a Dewalt 20V battery should look at the XGFDRE listing first, because it is built around that pack. Buyers who want the lightest tool for long edging use should compare the ALSO GO model, which states the lowest weight. People who want the widest cutting path should compare the VIBOGEN and XGFDRE listings, which state 12 inches and 8 inches respectively. Those who work on tall shrubs and thicker branches should prefer a model with a saw blade in the box, which the AYSLCKR, ASTARNING and reffmov listings include.

Mistakes to avoid

  • Buying a no-string head that ships with only nylon blades if you need to cut thick brush.
  • Assuming a battery is included. The XGFDRE listing says the battery and charger are not included, and the bullets do not say the same for every model, so read each listing.
  • Comparing runtimes across models that state different battery setups. The ALSO GO figure is combined, while the AYSLCKR and VIBOGEN figures are described as working time per charge.
  • Changing blades while the unit is plugged in or powered. Several listings warn to remove the battery or stop the motor before servicing the head.

FAQ

Does a battery weed eater with no string need any line?

No. The models in this roundup use blades or stringless designs as their main cutting element. Some listings, such as the XGFDRE model, still include a grass cutting line in the box, so you may see line parts listed even on a model you buy as a no-string tool.

Which model has the most blade types?

The AYSLCKR and ASTARNING listings both state four blade types. The AYSLCKR bullets list a plastic blade, a rhombus blade, a U-blade and a saw blade. The ASTARNING bullets list nylon blades, steel string blades, metal blades and saw blades.

Which battery setup runs the longest?

The VIBOGEN listing gives the highest runtime figure, at 60 to 90 minutes with two 4.0Ah batteries. The AYSLCKR listing states up to 90 minutes with two 2000mAh batteries. The ALSO GO listing gives the shortest figure, up to 30 minutes combined. These are the listings’ stated values, not results from our own use.

Is the lightest model the best choice?

Not always. The ALSO GO model states a weight of 2.65 pounds, but its runtime is the shortest in the group. A heavier tool with a larger battery pack can be the better choice for a big yard, even though it adds arm fatigue.

Do I need a Dewalt battery for the XGFDRE model?

Yes, if you want to run it. The listing says the battery and charger are not included, and it lists Dewalt 20V MAX battery models as compatible. Buy a compatible pack separately, or choose a model that includes its own battery.

Bottom line

Choose the model whose battery setup, weight and blade types match the work you do most. For thick brush, pick a model that states a saw or metal blade. For long edging sessions, pick the lightest model with a runtime you can live with. If you already own a compatible battery, the tool-only listing is the cheapest route to a no-string head, and you can add the battery later.
