Will this Pivo Trim work with electric B&amp;D gh1000 electric trimmer? I was wondering if this Pivo Trim only work with gass trimmer or will it work with B&amp;D gh1000 electric trimmer?

No it does not work with electric trimmers. The instructions are clear about this--upfront.

I have not yet changed the line on my GH710 but am almost positive it uses 2 pieces of line. I buy precut refills that I wind on the spool myself. I have found the line more that adequete thickness to not only trim along side of house, but even edge around the drive way and sidewalk. You either got a defective line spool or you are not using the trimmer according to directions, be sure you read directions for optimum use. I have had absolutely no problem with it honestly.

I'm not sure what others are using this trimmer for. It is designed to trim the areas of your "lawn" that your mower can not reach. I get 30 minutes run-time from one battery. It is not a brush-hog. Buy a gas trimmer for that. It is a great "lawn" trimmer. By the way, my yard is 60' x 168'.

No. The trimmer takes a 20V lithium battery as used on the newer B&D; hand drills

It worked for me while plugged in, but only if I allowed the battery to fully charge. The trimmer would drain the battery faster than it could charge it, it's not like an appliance that would run full speed with cord or battery. The problem was when using it on consecutive days without recharging when traveling, you had to have the cord with you.

Make sure that your handle will fit the trimmer. We had a problem finding a trimmer with the long handle and powered by a battery.

It probably is too small of gauge for gas powered trimmers. You will need 8 or 10 gauge for your trimmer. If I remember right this is 6 gauge.

The trimmer I have is model NST2018, and it works well with that one. The batteries it came with are 18 volt single source slide pack batteries. I do not see a model number on them.

I have a basic Black & Decker & it works great with both brush heads. I have had no problems with my drill using the brushes.

The packaging on the Grass Gator 3600 states that it is for gas powered trimmers only. Grass gator makes a replacement head for electric trimmers that uses string.

Generally the gas heads don't fit the electric trimmer heads. The Makita head only uses one strand from the head. Not nearly the rpms from a gas trimmer. Love the trimmer, light weight & easy to make adjustments to. Not super powerful, but good enough. Now I don't tear the crap out of my fence & gutters.

I don't actually know the answer to this. The item was of very poor quality and after trying two different units, I gave up on it. Pieces would break after a single use. I ended up going with a Black and Decker handheld that has the grass clipper blade and a 7in hedge trimmer blade. The only thing the B&D doesn't have is the long handle attachment which I'm okay with. At least it doesn't wear out and break after 15 minutes of use.

I'm not sure about the edge trimmer, I can only say it has worked extremely well with my 18V B&D; leaf blower. I would definitely buy it again.

Yes, that is correct. My neighbor saw us trying to start our gas powered trimmer, and is the one who told me about this one. She has one and let me try hers. I ordered one the same day! I think you will love it.

As long as they are both Gen 1 and do not say G Max on the trimmer or battery. I think they should both be Gen1 products you are asking about. Gen1 and Gen2 products and batteries are not interchangeable. I found out the hard way!

I did it a couple years ago so my memory is foggy, but do recall being stumped for a while and then suddenly discovering the solution. I think you have to take off the guard first. Here's a diagram that will help you see how it comes apart: http://www.ereplacementparts.com/black-and-decker-gh1000-type-string-trimmer-parts-c-4167_9518_183331.html
