Battery & Electric Grass Trimmers

Battery grass trimmers for lawn edges and everyday trimming

A battery grass trimmer is designed for cutting lawn edges, trimming around trees and flower beds, and reaching areas that a lawn mower cannot cover. When comparing models, consider the task, cutting width, complete working weight, battery system and approved cutting equipment.

How to choose a cordless grass trimmer

Start with the areas you need to trim and how long you usually work. A lightweight model may be suitable for routine edging, while larger gardens and more frequent use make runtime, cutting width, weight and battery planning more important.
• Lawn edging and light trimming in a smaller garden: Compare complete working weight, balance and whether a battery and charger are included. A lightweight cordless grass trimmer is a suitable starting point.
• A larger garden or longer trimming sessions: Compare cutting width, runtime, weight and battery availability. A model with suitable cutting width and battery capacity is a suitable starting point.
• Several garden tasks using one power unit: Compare attachment compatibility, shaft design and storage. A cordless combi trimmer is a suitable starting point.
• Frequent or professional work: Compare runtime, controls, working weight and access to additional batteries. A professional battery grass trimmer is a suitable starting point.

Battery system, runtime and kit contents

The UK range includes both 18 V and 36 V models. Voltage identifies the battery system a model belongs to, but it should not be used as the only measure of which grass trimmer is suitable. Cutting width, working weight, cutting equipment and intended use should also be compared.
Runtime depends on factors including battery capacity, the machine, the task, power setting, weather conditions and the battery's age and condition. Estimated runtimes should therefore be used as guidance rather than a guarantee. Battery Runtime Tool. 
Some models are sold without a battery and charger, while others are available as complete kits. Check what is included with the selected buying option before ordering.

Trimmer heads and line

Only use cutting equipment approved for the specific model. The correct trimmer head and line diameter depend on both the machine and the task.
Check compatibility on the product page or in the operator's manual before fitting replacement equipment.

Compare cordless trimming tools

The right tool depends on the vegetation and whether you need one machine for trimming or a power unit that can support several attachments.
