Kärcher HGE 3-18 Battery Set

The Kärcher HGE 3-18 Battery Set is a cordless hedge trimmer intended for routine maintenance of small to medium-sized hedges and shrubs around the home. Its battery-powered design allows unrestricted movement around garden boundaries. The 500 mm cutting length is paired with 22 mm tooth spacing and a stated maximum cutting thickness of 22 mm, suiting longer passes across hedge faces while handling branches of moderate thickness. An integrated sawing function helps when working through thicker growth.

The 18 V battery has a capacity of 2 Ah. Stated operating time is up to 30 minutes per charge, giving a practical basis for estimating whether a planned trimming session will fit within one battery cycle. Working range is governed by battery runtime rather than proximity to an electrical socket.

The trimmer weighs 2.4 kg, which matters when holding the blade at shoulder height or repeatedly repositioning it across a hedge. The ergonomic rear handle rotates through 90° to support both vertical and horizontal cutting positions. A hedge-sweeping attachment helps clear loose cuttings from the top surface as work progresses, and a blade-tip protector guards the cutting end when trimming close to walls or other obstacles.
