BOSCH UniversalHedgeCut 18V-55 Battery-powered Hedge Trimmer 2 x 18 V/ 2.5Ah - 55 cm Blade

The Bosch UniversalHedgeCut 18V-55 battery-powered hedge trimmer is a tool designed for cutting and maintaining medium to large hedges in residential settings.

It is typically used for regular hedge maintenance in home gardens, where its battery-powered operation makes cutting easier. Designed for private users and hobbyists with experience in maintenance, it is suitable for those looking for a simple but efficient tool for working on medium-sized surfaces.

It is powered by an 18V lithium battery with a capacity of 2.5 Ah. The kit includes 2 batteries, allowing you to alternate power sources for longer work sessions without breaks.

The brushless motor (an induction motor without brushes) reduces component wear and limits maintenance compared to traditional motors.

Bosch Quick Cut technology allows for quick and precise cuts even on sturdy branches. The ergonomic handle, designed to ensure stability, facilitates prolonged use by reducing operator fatigue.

The main technical and design advantages of the Bosch Universal HedgeCut 18V-55 hedge trimmer are:

• Brushless motor: brushless induction motor designed for longer life and reduced maintenance;
• Bosch Quick Cut technology: enables clean cuts on the first pass, even on thick branches;
• 55 cm cutting blade length: facilitates hedge cutting over large surfaces, for increased productivity;
• 2 x 18V 2.5 Ah lithium batteries included: extend runtime to a total of 75 minutes with reduced charging times;
• Battery level indicator: allows you to easily monitor the remaining charge;
• Ergonomic handle: ensures a stable grip and comfort during prolonged use.

The 18V lithium-ion batteries can be recharged at any time (like modern smartphone batteries, they have no memory effect) so they are always ready for use.

Main features:

• Battery voltage: 18 V
• Capacity of the two batteries: 2.5 Ah
• Charging time for the batteries: 1 hour
• 2800 BPM
• Maximum 300 s.q. m. with one battery charge

Thanks to its impressive 55 cm blade, with Bosch's " Anti-Blocking" system, it allows for continuous cutting without interruption.

Its 18 V battery is compatible with all other POWER FOR ALL products, as well as products from other brands that use POWER OF ALL batteries.

The high-quality blades cut branches of up to 22 mm with great precision.

Extremely simple controls located in an easy-to-reach position directly on the handle.

The handle located close to the cutting blade has a  hand guard.

The comfortable and ergonomic handle makes the trimmer extremely versatile, ensuring perfect ergonomics for both horizontal and vertical cutting.

In addition, the Bosch hedge trimmer has a battery level indicator to ensure that there is still sufficient charge.

2 batteries with quick-release: they can be detached and removed from the machine with a simple gesture, just press the quick release button.

Voltage: 18 V
Amperage: 2 Ah

The practical battery can be recharged at any time, without memory effect (it does not tend to run out after many recharges) to always have excellent power.

Comes with a practical battery charger (connects to the mains like a cell phone charger).

The battery is attached to the battery charger via the quick-release coupling, in the same way as it is attached to the hedge trimmer.

Additional batteries can also be purchased for extended working time.

Charging time: 65 minutes

LONGER LIFE: up to 3 times longer than traditional nickel-cadmium batteries, reducing the need to recharge during long periods of use.
Ideal for medium to large gardens.

FULL CHARGE FOR THE ENTIRE LIFE OF THE BATTERY: the charge of lithium-ion batteries does not fade. Unlike nickel-cadmium batteries, whose power gradually decreases, lithium battery cells maintain constant power throughout the entire cycle. You get virtually the same charge from start to finish, with no reduction in motor speed. The battery operates at full power until it is completely depleted.

LONG CHARGE LIFE: Lithium batteries boast 3-4 times more recharges than traditional nickel-cadmium batteries, as well as longer storage times with less charge loss. With lithium batteries, you can get up to 2,000 charge cycles!

LOWER WEIGHT: Lithium batteries offer the best power-to-weight ratio. On average, they weigh 1/3 of nickel-cadmium batteries.

ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY: Lithium battery-powered tools are recyclable and are produced without heavy metals.

NO MEMORY EFFECT: Lithium batteries can be recharged at any time without any negative memory effect, offering maximum power even after hundreds of charge cycles.
Just a few minutes of charging is enough to provide the power needed to complete the job.

LOW DISCHARGE RATE: Low run down rate (up to 5 times lower than nickel-cadmium batteries), so your tool will be ready to use even after months of non-use.

BATTERY CHARGER: Lithium battery chargers reduce energy consumption by an average of 35%.

The POWER FOR ALL ALLIANCE 18v is an industry association of electro-tool manufacturers who have decided to adopt a common standard for 18-volt batteries, enabling interoperability of batteries between the different brands belonging to the association.

Several leading brands have decided to adopt this initiative, these products are recognisable thanks to the P4A label.

The more battery-powered P4A products you buy, the more you save! You can extend your cordless system without paying for unnecessary batteries and chargers.

The use of the same 18-volt battery configuration between the different alliance brands allows consumers to use one brand's batteries with the power tools of another adhering brand.

The advantages of this alliance include the interoperability of batteries between different brands, which means that consumers can choose the best power tools from different brands using the same batteries.

Furthermore, one brand's larger batteries can also be used in another brand's power tools, increasing the life and durability of the tools.

In addition, this allows consumers to save money, as they are not bound to buy only one brand’s batteries and can take advantage of any offers on battery manufacturers.

Finally, the use of a single battery as a replacement for multiple electro-tools avoids the need to buy and recharge several of them, offering greater convenience to consumers.
