That is what cordless hedge trimmers do. They hardly last any time at
all even on a full charge and the batteries die a miserable death after
a couple of seasons if the motor doesn't burn out first.

Looking at Stihl/Viking. Silly prices but are they worth it ?

TIA.


I'd try a decent mains powered one rather than cordless. YMMV

So would I. I only cut through the cable once. :-)
