Useful Buying Tips Related To Brushcutters and Hedge Trimmers

Hedge Trimmers

When it comes to buying brushcutters, there are a number of things to take care of. Amongst all of them, the most important are the performance related points of the machines offered to you. In this post, we will simply go through some important things that are to be checked before investing in a particular machine.

Power Output (Measured In Watts (W) or Volts (V))


• In terms of electric motors, one thing that buyers need to understand is that the bigger the power output, the more powerful the trimmer motor will be.
• This means that with more powerful engine, it would become easy for brushcutters to tackle thinker and heavier grass.
• The power of electric motors is measured in watts, while cordless battery power is measured in volts.
• If you are looking for domestic hedge trimmers for lighter usage, you can pick anyone of them running on the power of 250 to 400W or cordless models with 12V and above.
• However, for larger lawns, experts recommend that the power chosen should be above 14V, a corded trimmer above 450V or a petrol model. 
• The bottom-line is that the most powerful option is the petrol brushcutters.


Battery Life (Measured In Ampere Hours (Ah) or Amp Rating)


• Experts say that the batteries of brushcutters that are battery-operated are measured in Amperes (Ah) and this majorly dictates the runtime that the battery will give you. 
• Here too, higher the capacity is, the longer the battery will run for. 
• In a majority of cases, you will find these brushcutters and hedge trimmers running on lithium-ion batteries that ensure that there would be no self-discharge.
• This means that while in a storage, the batteries will not get discharged and will always be ready to use.
• In this regards, experts say that you should look to buy hedge trimmers and brushcutters that are supplied with batteries which can be used with other power tools too.
