If you've already invested in an EGO Lawn Mower, you understand the revolution of cordless, battery-powered yard care. The quiet power, zero emissions, and impressive performance have likely transformed your mowing experience. But a pristine lawn is about more than just the cut. Edges, tight corners, and post-mow cleanup are where a truly polished look is achieved. This is where expanding your EGO ecosystem with a tool like the ST6703LB Combo, Cordless Trimmer and Blower becomes a game-changer. This guide explores how this powerful combo integrates seamlessly with your mower to create a complete, professional-grade yard maintenance system.
Why the EGO Ecosystem is a Smart Choice for Homeowners
The core strength of the EGO brand lies in its unified 56V ARC Lithium battery platform. This means the battery that powers your self-propelled or push mower is the same one that fuels the trimmer, blower, and over 75+ other tools. For owners of an EGO Lawn Mower, adding the ST6703LB combo isn't just buying two new tools; it's a strategic expansion of your existing investment. You eliminate the hassle of managing multiple battery types and chargers, and you gain the flexibility to swap a single, powerful battery between tasks, ensuring you're never left with a dead tool mid-job.
Deep Dive: The ST6703LB Cordless Trimmer and Blower Combo
This specific combo, the ST6703LB, is engineered to handle the finishing touches your mower can't reach. Let's break down its components and how they partner with your mowing routine.
The 15" POWERLOAD Trimmer: Precision Edging Made Simple
After your EGO mower has done the heavy lifting on the main lawn, the trimmer takes over. The 15-inch cutting swath is ideal for trimming along fences, garden beds, trees, and sidewalks. The standout feature is the POWERLOAD head, which allows you to reload trimmer line in seconds without disassembling the head—no bumping, no tangles. This is a massive time-saver and eliminates a common point of frustration with many trimmer and blower combos. It ensures you spend more time trimming and less time fumbling with line.
The 670 CFM Blower: The Perfect Cleanup Partner
A freshly mowed lawn scattered with grass clippings on the driveway or patio loses its appeal quickly. The included 670 CFM (Cubic Feet per Minute) blower provides serious power for cleanup. It's designed to clear clippings, leaves, and debris from hardscapes, mulch beds, and out from under deck edges. Using this blower after mowing and trimming gives your yard that meticulous, professionally maintained appearance. The high airspeed efficiently moves wet, heavy grass clippings that a weaker blower might struggle with.
Shared 56V 4.0Ah Battery and Charger
The combo kit includes a 56V 4.0Ah battery and a rapid charger. For most users, this battery will provide ample runtime for a full trimming and blowing session after mowing. However, the true power move is battery interchangeability. If you own a larger-capacity battery from your lawn mower (like a 5.0Ah or 7.5Ah), you can use it in the trimmer or blower for extended runtime. Conversely, you can use this 4.0Ah battery as a backup for your mower. This flexibility is the cornerstone of the EGO system's efficiency.
Creating the Ultimate Cordless Yard Care Workflow
Here’s how a typical yard session flows when you integrate the ST6703LB combo with your EGO Lawn Mower:
- Mow: Use your EGO mower with its largest battery to cut the main lawn area.
- Trim: Swap the battery (or use the combo's battery) into the POWERLOAD trimmer. Define all edges, trim around obstacles, and tackle tall grass/weeds in areas the mower couldn't reach.
- Blow: Without changing tools, switch to the 670 CFM blower. Clear all clippings from walkways, driveways, patios, and back onto the lawn as nutrient-rich mulch. Blow debris out of garden beds and from under shrubs.
- Charge & Store: All tools use the same charger, simplifying your post-job routine.
This workflow is seamless, quiet, and free from the fumes and pull-cords of gas-powered equipment.
Performance and Value: Is the Combo Worth It for EGO Mower Owners?
For someone who already trusts the 56V battery platform, the value proposition of the ST6703LB combo is strong. Purchasing the trimmer and blower together in a kit is significantly more cost-effective than buying them separately. You're not just getting two tools; you're getting a optimized post-mow cleanup system designed to work in harmony. The professional-grade performance of both tools, especially the time-saving POWERLOAD feature and the powerful 670 CFM airflow, justifies the investment for homeowners who take pride in a perfectly manicured yard.
Conclusion: Building Your Complete EGO Tool Suite
An EGO Lawn Mower is the foundation of a modern, cordless yard. The ST6703LB Cordless Trimmer and Blower Combo is the logical and powerful next step. It fills the critical gaps in your lawn care regimen, leveraging the same reliable battery system to deliver a finish that rivals professional landscaping. By adopting this complete ecosystem of electric yard tools, you achieve an unparalleled combination of power, convenience, and environmental responsibility, making weekend yard work a more efficient and even enjoyable task.
