Imagine a hedge trimmer that gives you petrol-style power and freedom with the ‘no fumes, no fuss and no maintenance’ of electricity.

Utilising industry-leading technology, this hedge trimmer has a groundbreaking lithium-Ion battery that is lighter, charges faster, lasts longer and fully maintains its power while not in use, even after months. This battery provides up to 2000 charge cycles, 3 to 4 times the power delivered by Ni-cad batteries, is a third of the weight and reduces energy use by up to 35%. It delivers a run time of up to 35 minutes on a 1-hour charge and is so easy to fit; it really is click-in, switch on and go. Charge it full for a long hedge trimming session or part charge to take off a stray twig or two; this advanced battery has no memory so there are no negative effects.
