uses one spool of line in 10 minutes,,18 volt ...is this normal? what's the fix?

I have about a quarter acre and I use about two spools per season. Not sure of the time that it's being used for but it lasts a while.

Mine didn't last too long either. I think I used mine twice before the line was out. Then again, i was hard on mine.

I concur with the other 7 answers you've received so far. The only worry might be the extra 10 amps, 25% more than what the original installer decided on. My breaker hasn't blown but hasn't had a reason to do so.

I've been reloading with cheap refill spools. I don't know if using a single line would throw it off balance. It's automatic feed, and it seems the least disturbance seems to make it spit out a couple of feet of line. I'm definitely going to try C's suggestion to tie knots so it won't feed.

since it is intermittent it sounds like you may have a load (that is not always on) connected on the timer line side. The timer side needs a dedicated path. Also, you may want to check and make sure that the voltage on the line side matches the voltage you set the unit to.

Use a volt ohm meter set to continuity and touch the red probe to one prong and the black probe to the other prong. If the meter reads open or over load it is bad.

I'm unsure what your question is asking...I will suggest the following - I will purchase just the string next time. I found the spool was poorly wound such that I had to unwind it to free the string from excessive overlapping. I then manually reattached the string and have had no issues since.

Are you running it off the correct mains? Mine was doing this until I installed a transformer.

put a active wire,off the drok dc meter, to the active line being used to, run things in your rv that should use of power and what is left good luck Chris

Yep, it's hot, so PLEASE BE CAREFUL! The other thing I noticed, and it's a minor issue, is that the spool is not the "standard" size, so flux core that you get from Home Depot or Lowe's won't fit right out of the box, but with some sandpaper and a round file, it's an easy 5 minute fix.

The volts is not the problem....what u need to find out is how much amps is ur system if its 15A or below then the conditioner will be able to handle it

My botvac 80 runs longer than that, but how much is hard to say. I'd guess at least an hour. Perhaps the contact with the charger was not close enough?

Its not normal, but more likely one to go and then the other may fail a short time later. Best to scan and pull any codes and go from there. Check for a wiring problem or maybe a blown fuse.

Chris is right, I spoke with the elect who checked mine when I hooked it up. He said, not only will that not work right with the way the wire hookups are in the heater, it's against most elect codes. I would put in new breakers and wire just to make sure everything is good. You wouldn't want to fry something that's so expensive. Mine has been going for 4years now..... Still going strong.Hope this helps.

I have no problems with the line just make sure u have it running wide open when u bump it on the ground hope this helps.

I'm not an expert. I did give this thing a low star rating, and a B&D; representative contacted me. Maybe if you do the same, someone from B&D; will contact you. Or try their website. I'm still pretty frustrated with this thing. I bought some bulk line and wound the existing spool, and it's semi-functional. Good luck.

tough question sight un seen but sounds like your attaching the load wire to same termination bracket. also the outlet may be defective. If it is doing it on more than just one then it is the attachment location that is wrong.

I love mine, but it is electrical. I have a very long extension cord and do a wonderful edging/cleaning job (275 feet) of my corner plot in 1/2 hour. Maybe there is a battery run model that your reader is complaining about?
