Husqvarna 520 iLX low vibes (anyone used one?)

[thegardener]

Hello all, 

 

I'm after something with low vibes to do lawn edging with. I've been using the stihl fs91r, but its heavy and the vibes are pretty high. This 520 iLX looks like the ideal machine (on paper that is) and the vibe stats are as low as I've seen. In fact the whole Husqqvarna range seems to have lower vibes than Stihl's range. Has anyone had any experience with this model?

I have a husqvarna battery strimmer. However last year we bought the new Ego powerhead strimmer. Its extremely light but perfect for lawn edging. All of the power is down at the head rather than up at the battery end and just for extra fun it also coils up your strimmer cord with the push of a button. Its also not that pricey. Husqvarna battery stuff is pretty pricey. Have you used any Ego stuff? 

 

I have a bunch of their stuff and am quite surprised at how well it works and price is pretty good too. Try this link here. I was pretty impressed at how well it was balanced and also how quiet, easy to control when doing edges and pretty powerful for a battery strimmer.
