Unlike a petrol hedge trimmer, battery hedge trimmer models are quieter and lighter – making them easy to use and manoeuvre. A cordless hedge trimmer means you can easily reach every hedge of your garden, no matter the size. There are no snagging cords or extension leads. Significant improvements in technology mean that battery life and power is more comparable than ever to traditional petrol or corded trimmers.
