I had the impression that this spool could double as a replacement for the spool of the 24-volt version of the Yardstick. I must have misread something, though, because it does not fit in the housing. Instead, I had to manually transfer the line from the replacement spool to my existing spool. With Yardsticks no longer being manufactured, I guess I'll have to get used to this.

This part of the yard stick keeps breaking. It makes the whole unit very weak. Not worth the money

I thought I was out of line from the spool on my yardstick(it was jammed) so I ordered this replacement. As it turns out the original spool was nearly full but I didn't find that out until I took it off to install the replacement spool. At this time when the unit was one year old, I decided to see if there was an extra batteries available because the unit seemed to need more frequent recharging. I found out that this unit is not available anymore including the batteries. As it turns out I have three spools: the original, the spare one that I bought at the original sale and now the third which was supposed to be my spare. As I think about it now, I don't think I should worry about replacement spools for a unit that will have a limited life.
