The Einhell 18V 55cm Hedge Trimmer Solo is a powerful single-battery trimmer built for larger hedges. With a 55cm cutting length and 18mm tooth spacing, it handles thicker branches and bigger areas than entry-level models. A metal gearbox provides long-term durability, while laser-cut, diamond-ground steel blades deliver clean, sharp cuts. Sold as the tool body only - battery and charger are not included.

Why the 55cm Solo

Which Einhell hedge trimmer do you need?

Common Questions

Does it come with a battery and charger?
No - this is the "Solo" version, sold as the tool body only. You'll need one 18V Einhell Power X-Change battery and charger, sold separately. If you already own Power X-Change tools, your existing battery will work.

What size hedge can it handle?
The 55cm cutting length and 18mm tooth spacing suit larger hedges and moderately thick branches. For the largest hedges and toughest branches, the 36V 61cm model offers more power.

Can I use batteries from other Einhell tools?
Yes - any 18V Power X-Change battery works across the entire Einhell Power X-Change range, so a battery you already own for another tool will fit this trimmer too.
