The Long And Short Of It
Introduced To Ego’s Hedgetrimmer Range
T
wo lengths of hedge trimmer
are now available in the range
of 56 volt lithium-ion powered
garden products from EGO
Power+.
The range, which previously consisted
solely of a 61cm option, now features a
shorter 51cm model.
As well as the new length, the brand
has also introduced an articulating
hedge feature that rotates to 45 and
90 degrees, both left and right, to help
gardeners trim hard to reach areas.
The new model also features an extended 33mm blade gap, 11mm more
than the 61cm model. As well as having
an increased load speed of 3000 to
3600 rpm.

Both hedgetrimmers boast EGO’s dual
action, laser cut and diamond ground
blade for increased precision and
cleaner cuts to promote healthy, new
hedge growth.
EGO’s European marketing director,
Steve Roskell, commented: “Our 2015
launch season showed us that gardeners are desperately seeking an alternative to petrol and electric products. The
popularity of our range immediately
showed us that our 56 volt products
offer them just that! We’ve introduced
a new shorter model to the hedge
trimmer range as we want to make
the range accessible for people with
gardens of all sizes”.
The hedge trimmers are powered by
EGO’s 56 volt lithium-ion battery that is
available as a 2Ah, 4Ah, 5Ah or 7.5Ah.
All batteries are interchangeable across
the entire EGO range and featured the
brand’s patented arc design and “keep
cool” cell technology.
The EGO Power+ system is a breakthrough in every way, and has been
designed to deliver a new level of
cordless performance. In just thirty
minutes the 4.0Ah battery can be fully
recharged using the rapid charger,
which is another first in the lawn and
garden world. The entire EGO range
matches, if not exceeds, the performance of petrol products without the
noise, fuss or fumes.
Prices of the hedge trimmers start from
£129.
EGO Power+ products are available
nationwide from independent Henton
& Chattell dealers, and online at
