Chris, is your trimmer this one?

I really like this idea... just take the battery pack off, add a cable
to the Elec-trak, and holster it somewhere handy to the driver's seat,
to do little tune-ups around buildings and gardens. Maybe rig a boom
pole to do pond and stream edges.
It's deadly expensive, though. Too much for me at this point in time!
Maybe I can find one cheap with a dead battery at the farmer's
market.
