Skil 40V Brushless 14-Inch String Trimmer & Leaf Blower Combo, 2.5Ah Battery, Twist-Load

SKIL’s PWR CORE 40 brushless 14-inch string trimmer and cordless leaf blower combo delivers gas-level clearing power with battery convenience, including a 2.5Ah battery and fast charger.

Designed for homeowners who want strong, low-maintenance yard tools without fumes or tune-ups, this combo pairs a 14-inch dual-line string trimmer and a turbine-style leaf blower driven by a digital brushless motor. The kit includes SKIL’s PWR CORE 40 2.5Ah lithium battery and an Auto PWR JUMP charger so both tools run longer and recharge faster than typical brushed-motor alternatives. Ideal for edging, trimming around obstacles, and clearing leaves and debris, the set balances power, runtime, and easy-to-use features like a twist-load trimmer head and a variable-speed blower trigger.

How does the brushless motor improve yard work?

The digital brushless motor increases efficiency and durability versus brushed motors, delivering more consistent torque and longer runtime per charge. It reduces maintenance because there are no brushes to replace and runs cooler under load, extending tool life. In practical terms, you get stronger cutting and clearing performance from less battery drain.

• Higher efficiency for longer runtime
• Less maintenance—no motor brushes to wear out
• Consistent power under heavier loads

What makes the blower effective for heavy leaves and debris?

The blower uses a turbine fan design that concentrates airflow for up to 500 CFM, paired with a Power Boost mode to tackle dense piles and wet leaves. Variable speed control and a comfortable lever let you dial in airflow for delicate areas or full-power clearing. This combination delivers the sweep and push needed for driveways, patios, and lawn edges without a cord.

• Turbine fan provides focused high-volume airflow (up to 500 CFM)
• Power Boost for extra clearing power on heavy debris
• Variable speed lever for precision and cruise control

How does the string trimmer handle loading and tough vegetation?

The trimmer includes SKIL’s patented Twist Load Head so you load line quickly by inserting the line and twisting—no complicated spools or disassembly. A dual-line bump feed supplies more cutting width and faster material removal, making it easier to slice through thick grasses and stubborn weeds. The 14-inch head offers a good balance of coverage and maneuverability around beds and fences.

• Twist Load Head for fast, tool-free line replacement
• Dual-line bump feed increases cutting capacity and speed
• 14-inch cutting swath for efficient edging and trimming

What does the included battery and charger deliver for performance?

The kit’s PWR CORE 40 2.5Ah lithium battery provides a reliable balance of runtime and weight for typical yard tasks, while the Auto PWR JUMP charger gets the battery back into service quickly. Because the tools use the PWR CORE 40 platform, the battery is compatible with other SKIL PWR CORE 40 equipment for added value. Expect fewer interruptions and a cordless workflow for mid-sized yards.

• 2.5Ah battery—balanced runtime and tool weight
• Auto PWR JUMP charger for faster recharge cycles
• Battery platform compatibility across PWR CORE 40 tools

Who is this for: Homeowners with small-to-medium yards who want the performance of electric outdoor power tools without gasoline maintenance. It suits users who need a reliable trimmer for edging and weed control plus a powerful blower for leaves, with the convenience of a single PWR CORE 40 battery system. If you prefer quieter, low-upkeep equipment that still moves heavy debris and dense growth, this combo is a practical, cordless option.
