Re: Cordless tools.
I have a slow-growing fir tree hedge that needs trimming once in a while. A mains driven hedge trimmer is used for the job. I would once have thought about getting a cordless trimmer but that was before getting a battery lawn mower. This is quite gutless if the grass is long.Re: Cordless tools.

Re: Cordless tools.
Too late now to sway OP's choice but I will simply say that anything bought that is cordless is generally a poor choice. However good and funky the thing looks, be it a cordless vaccum cleaner or hedge trimmer or garden strimmer, the fact is that all you are really buying is a battery and a motor. The technology for batteries is extremely well known and established. Your battery is only going to last a finite time before it stops holding a full charge and then dies altogether. With many batteries you can't afford to let them totally discharge and so need to be constantly topping them up. Not all, but many. Either way, it's just a battery and most batteries for large devices will only last 1 to 2 years imo.Re: Cordless tools.
Spent an hour and a half in the garden this morning - gave my new cordless trimmer a real 'road test' - and am delighted! It sailed through the Privet hedge like a hot knife through butter, went on to deal with a straggly Spirea, a Snowball bush, a Honeysuckle hedge and a rampant Summer Jasmine.Re: Cordless tools.
