Stiga SHT 100 AE KIT 20v Cordless Hedgetrimmer (Inc. Battery & Charger)

A trailing mains lead on a hedgetrimmer can be particularly restrictive and annoying - this cordless model from well-known Swedish brand, Stiga, provides the perfect cable-free solution, and offers performance levels comparable to many domestic-use petrol-driven machines.

Crucial to those performance levels is a powerful 20v/2Ah lithium-ion battery that doesn’t suffer from self-discharge or memory effect; and which offers longer runtimes and shorter charge-times than same-class ni-cad and lead-acid cells.

The Stiga SHT 100 AE 20v Cordless Hedgetrimmer comes equipped with a pair of lengthy, 55cm, hardened-steel blades, which are double sided for fast bi-directional trimming, and laser-cut for stay-sharp durability and clean, bruise-free results.

A generous 25mm tooth pitch makes it possible to tackle medium-diameter growth without it being twisted or chewed; a tip guard works to protect the blades when working close to walls and other hard surfaces.

Remarkably lightweight (2.2kg) and boasting an optimised centre of gravity, the Stiga SHT 100 AE offers low-effort manoeuvrability and will prove comfortable and controllable, even for inexperienced hedgetrimmer users.

Also featured is a handy hanging-hole for space-saving wall-mounted storage; and a three-step ‘twist-grip’ rear handle, which will help you to maintain a natural body position when tackling trickily shaped and/or positioned hedges.
