I recently picked up an 8ah fuel battery with my trimmer kit, and it's been performing really well! However, it doesn't quite have enough juice to finish my entire yard when I'm trimming and edging. I'm considering getting a second one, or even better, a 12ah battery if I can find a good deal or a bundle. Does anyone know of any current or upcoming deals on these batteries?

I’ve scored all my Forge batteries by buying combo sets and then flipping the tools on marketplace. I managed to sell the new Gen 2 trimmer for $140 and the blowers for $80-$100. If I were you and needed an 8.0 Forge, I’d grab that kit with the free hedger, return the hedger, and keep the trimmer. You could sell the trimmer for $120-$140, which makes the battery and charger cost you only about $60-$80! Check it out here: [link].
I grabbed an 8ah Forge with my trimmer too, and just yesterday I ended up spending another $200 on a second one. It's funny how whenever I buy something at full price, good deals tend to pop up almost immediately after, so I wouldn't be surprised if something is in the works! ?
You might want to check out some hacks! You can actually buy the trimmer battery combo for around $180, which is cheaper than getting a battery on its own. Worth considering!
I’ve been doing this too! I sell off the trimmers for $100 each, and I've already sold three. ?
