Cordless whipper snipper with Makita durability. Light, powerful, no fumes.
The Makita DUR181Z is the line trimmer (whipper snipper, for the Australians) that makes petrol models obsolete for suburban lawns. The 18V motor spins the line at 7,800 RPM — plenty of power for edging, trimming around garden beds, and taming overgrown areas along fences. At just 2.6kg it's significantly lighter than any petrol trimmer, which matters when you're holding it at awkward angles for 20 minutes. The bump-feed head advances line automatically, and the adjustable cutting guard lets you set the trim width. Part of the massive Makita 18V LXT battery ecosystem, so if you already own Makita tools, you already have the battery.
