With garden tools that work on a battery, you get complete freedom of movement. You're not restricted to a socket and you're not tied to extension cords either. That makes these tools suitable for medium-sized gardens. Cordless garden tools often belong to a battery platform. If you have a battery at home that's part of the same battery platform with the same voltage, then you can also use this battery for your lawn mower, leaf blower, hedge trimmer, chainsaw, lawn scarifier, or any other garden tool.
