Bosch UNIVERSALHEDGECUT 18V-55 P4A 18v Cordless Hedge Trimmer 550mm
Battery AH Explained
The best way to describe battery amp hour is that this is effectively the size of your fuel tank, the more amp hours your battery has then the longer the battery will last between charges. More amp hours does not increase the power of a given tool.
Battery Voltage Explained
A tool with a higher voltage than another is a bit like choosing an engine in a car, the higher voltage will generally mean higher power & performance. As with cars though a bigger engine does not always translate to better performance so it is important to compare the specifications of tools at different voltages between different manufacturers.
Bosch PowerForAll
The Bosch PowerForAll Tool range is a range of tools you can buy knowing that batteries are compatible with all tools in the range providing they are of the same voltage. eg 18v fits 18v, 12v (10.8v) fits 12v (10.8v) etc. Please also note that 10.8v is compatible with 12v & vice versa as it is just a name change. Indego Lawnmowers also use the PowerForAll 18v battery but require a cover plate to be removed if changing.
PowerForAll has many advantages not least the fact that once you have a tool with a few batteries then there is no need to buy the more expensive versions with battery & charger, you can just go ahead & buy the much cheaper no battery versions!
So remember PowerForAll signifies complete battery compatibility throughout the range. There is however, one caveat to this, some of the very first older chargers will not charge the very latest batteries & a battery charger upgrade will be required if you have a first generation charger. All batteries fit all tools however.
As of 2021 Bosch has licensed PowerForAll to other manufacturers whereby batteries between these manufacturers will be interchangeable.
Important
You cannot use Bosch Pro (Blue) batteries in either 12v or 18v DIY (Green) products.

Perfect cordless hedge cutter for our box hedges - easy to handle and the universal battery system makes life very simple. Early days but happy so far!
Great hedge trimmers with long reach. Perfect for when you already have the battery and only need the tool carcass.
Wanted the bare tool without battery and charger. Success.
Very pleased with first use of the Bosch hedge cutter. Light to handle easily but powerful enough to cut our hedges.
Very satisfied with the product. It does what it is supposed to do namely cut the hedges.
I have a 30m x 2.5m conifer hedge in my garden and usually use a petrol hedge cutter. I couldn't stomach the thought of swinging my 6kg petrol cutter around, up a ladder anymore. I started looking at bigger brands first but then thought about Bosch, as I have a drill, impact driver, torch and circular saw already, all using the 18v one 4 all batterys. I wasnt convinced that a rechargeable garden tool would be too good and especially the 2.5AH battery, so I went for the 6AH battery. I probably didn't need to. After a couple of hours and 2 passes at the hedge (one to take the thick off and another to trim it back and tidy it up, this hedge hasn't been cut for 2 years) the battery only used 1 bar! I was shocked. And better still, with the Bosch weighing in at half the weight of the petrol model (even with the bigger battery) I don't feel like I've had a workout, unlike in previous years. I would highly recommend this product.
