Black & Decker GTC1843L20-QW Battery-powered Hedge Trimmer on Extension Pole, 18V - 2 Ah Battery

The Black & Decker GTC1843LB-QW battery-powered hedge trimmer is a versatile and convenient choice for maintaining hedges and shrubs in small to medium-sized gardens. Equipped with a 18V lithium-ion battery, it guarantees constant power throughout the duration of the work, avoiding drops in performance.

The five-position swivelling head, with an inclination of up to 180°, allows the cut to be adapted to different heights and shapes of hedges, reducing physical effort. The structure facilitates access to the highest points without the need for ladders, promoting safe use.

Designed for practical storage, the GTC1843LB-QW is demountable for compact storage. The dual-action blade offers a smooth and even cut, minimising vibration for greater comfort.

Main features:

• 18V battery: Cordless flexibility with a cutting range of up to 100 sq m.
• Swivelling head: Five angles of up to 180° for maximum versatility.
• Dismountable structure: Facilitates orderly storage of the tool.
• Dual-action blade: Precise cutting and low vibrations for optimum comfort

The Black & Decker GTC1843LB-QW battery-powered hedge trimmer is designed to meet the need for convenience and versatility in maintaining hedges. This model is equipped with several features designed to make green work easier, ensuring precision and manoeuvrability in every stage of use.

180° swivelling head.
The hedge trimmer is equipped with a five-position adjustable head with a maximum angle of 180°. This function allows the cutting angle to be adapted to the shape and height of the hedge, also facilitating reaching high branches. The swivelling head improves the flexibility of the tool, reducing the need for effort and complex movements.

Double-action blade.
The double-action blade is designed for a clean and precise cut thanks to diamond grinding. This feature allows a more stable cut, contributing to good cutting quality on hedges and shrubs of various thicknesses.

Extension pole. The Black & Decker GTC1843LB-QW features an extension pole designed to easily reach high hedges and branches without the use of ladders. The hedge trimmer's extension pole reaches an overall length of 2 metres, allowing it to work on hedges up to a maximum height of 3.5 metres. Made of lightweight material, the pole ensures manoeuvrability and stability during cutting, reducing operator fatigue even during extended sessions.

18V battery power supply.
The cable-free design offers greater mobility, making this model suitable for gardens with hedges and shrubs spread over several spots. The battery ensures constant power and does not drop during use, ensuring a steady and smooth cut.

Additionally, the non-slip handle provides a stable and secure grip during use, improving control of the hedge trimmer in all working conditions.

LONGER RUNTIME: up to 3 times longer than conventional nickel–cadmium batteries, reducing the need for recharging during long periods of use.
Ideal for medium to large gardens.

FULL CHARGE FOR THE ENTIRE BATTERY LIFE: the charge of the lithium-ion batteries does not fade. Unlike nickel-cadmium batteries, which power gradually decreases, lithium-ion batteries, cells maintain constant power throughout the entire cycle. There is roughly the same charge for the entire cycle, without reducing the motor speed. The battery operates at full
power until it runs down.

LONGER CHARGE DURATION: Lithium batteries boast 3-4 times more charges than conventional nickel-cadmium batteries, while having longer storage periods with less charge loss. With lithium batteries, you can do up to 2,000 charge cycles!

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

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

NO MEMORY EFFECT: Lithium-ion batteries can be recharged at any time without a negative memory effect; they are able to offer maximum power even after hundreds of charge cycles.
A few minutes of recharging is enough to provide the power needed to complete the job.

LOW DISCHARGE RATE: Low loss of charge rate (up to 5 times lower than nickel-cadmium batteries) so your machine will be ready to use even after months of storage.

BATTERY CHARGER: lithium-ion battery chargers reduce energy consumption by an average of 35%.

The Black & Decker 18 V lithium-ion battery can be recharged at any time (just like the batteries of modern smartphones, no memory effect) so it is always ready to use. It lasts on average 3 times longer than a standard battery. The battery is equipped with a convenient charge indicator.

Advantages of the electric engine:

• More reliable than an internal combustion engine, thanks to its electric engine No spark plug, filters, oil dipstick, carburettors, etc. that is problem-prone components
• Much lighter
• Zero maintenance, for the same above-mentioned reasons
• Lower consumption and drastically reduced operating costs compared to internal combustion engines (great results with minimal power required). In addition, the operator won’t have to constantly buy fuel (that should always be fresh).
• Zero vibrations, again thanks to the electric engine. Whereas almost all internal combustion engines, which are not equipped with an anti-vibration system on steel springs, have a very high degree of vibration, making work very uncomfortable
• Zero fumes, zero impact on the environment and, above all, zero repercussions on the Operator’s health.
• Much quieter and therefore more pleasant to use than an internal combustion engine
