Great deal but I'm kinda out of the loop. What happened with the recall on those batteries?

Based on what I am seeing, as long as you aren't charging the battery while on the tool you are okay. Charging while on the tool caused the excessive heat creating the recall.

FYI I bought the blower kit that was on sale with two batteries like this one. I opened it up and the batteries are actually really well put together. The casing sucks, but the actual connections and soldering points are top-notch. Also I was one for two on unplugging the USB-C ports. I think if I had it to do over again and I had a little more patience I might have been able to get both. Anyway, if you want to try it, you just have to pull off the cobalt sticker on the front everything is still set up for the port to be functioning and they just filled it it with some sort of plastic tab and adhesive. I tested the port on the one that I was successful on and it's fully functional. The one I messed up I just went ahead and stripped the connection points to be safe but I plan to probably in solder from the board and install a new port. Just thought I would share in case anyone was wondering if they left the connections intact.

I have this trimmer and like it, I upgraded from a 24v. I also got it with a free choice of attachment, so you may want to hold out for another deal with that.

I bought this.
Couple of things worth mentioniong.
It needs both batteries to work
It shuts off if you do not use it for about 5 seconds which requires hitting the start button again.
You can keep it from shutting off by keeping it slowly spinning while moving to next spot.
It is pretty heavy.

This being said it is very powerful even on setting one.
Setting two it is a beast.

My biggest concern is if one of the batteries fails it will not work because it needs both.
There is a three year warranty on batteries but I read that Lowes is dropping the kobalt line of tools.
If this happens it might be difficult to get any warranty parts.
