Platinum –
Powerful yet much quieter than a gas trimmer. Weight is on par with a gas trimmer but starting is so much easier, push a button, pull the trigger. Throttle control is excellent for trimming around delicate areas. Four amp hour batteries last a long time but five amp hour should be considered if trimming a lot of thick vegetation.
