Default Rechargeable edge trimmer / strimmer

I hope someone cant help me.
I have a heavy duty petrol strimmer which is excellent for most of my needs.
But it's too powerful for more intricate work like going close to trees and
especially grass edges (it wont swivel either). Electric corded jobs aren't
really suitable as the electricity supply is far too far distant. I wondered
if anyone has heard of a cordless or rechargeable edge trimmer and whether
they are any use in such circumstances.

Thank you all,

Jay


I've got a Flymo Cordless strimmer ... I'm the envy of all my
neighbours

Wasn't cheap at around 70 pounds, but would definitely buy it again
given the choice.

Would recommend that you use a slightly thicker plastic line than the
size supplied (I'm currently using a thicker Black & Decker line) as
the thin stuff does tend to break off rather quickly.
