I just bought a new battery powered weed whacker that has
the idiotic and wasteful auto-feed feature.
After an hour or two of thinking about how to disable / bypass it -
a lightbulb came on and I did a youtube search -
- first hit ! :

I haven't tried it yet but will-do later today.
The idiotic reply to this problem, from Ryobi, was to
1. don't start-stop so much when using
2. buy our other model that costs 2 X the price
Gee thanks Ryobi ...

I use a Tap and Go type Strimmer (Trimmer) which only feeds extra line
when the line is too short to cut, just tap the machine on the grass
then it auto lengthens to the correct length.
It's also a twin feed.
