One battery charge did two large sheep. The blade needed sharpening after i’d done 5 of them. All in all these are great little shearers. Means you can do jobs yourself at your own pace. I will buy an extra battery this year and another blade and I can do my whole little flock myself in a winner! Review: Due Corona not able to get him clipped by a professional. So purchased these clippers...... - ..........being retired the cost was a worry. These are not the cheapest clippers on the market, nor the most expensive. They were quiet enough for my nervous Collie (after a while he let me do his ruff), and with a 1" and 1/2" Wahl comb attached to avoid nicks, did him all over in 2 hours (last year it was 2 days with a hand clipper!). On his back we used the 1 inch comb against the lie of the coat. For the rest of him we used the 1/2" comb working along the lie of the coat. That left approx 1 inch long coat all over (compared with 4 inches left from the winter). It dealt fine with the dreadlocks on his backside and tail and the really thick hair round his ruff (one has to go slowly or the comb snags). We had a rest after the first hour as the Collie wanted to play and the clippers were hot. They took 30 minutes to re-charge and then we did the other side (it's a lot for a second battery but no doubt professionals would need several). All in all very impressed with the quality (it feels very solid, real Swiss engineering). So, having bitten the bullet of the cost, we are very pleased and very impressed. And in another year or two, we'll have paid it off............ ## Features - Uncompromising Heiniger quality as well as maximum performance - Latest lithium-ion battery technology - 2,600 strokes per minute - Very light-weight at 440g. - The box contains one lithium-ion rechargeable battery, a charger with a charging bay, a Heiniger No.10 standard blade as well as a care kit. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07M5GYRY3 | | ASIN | B07M5GYRY3 | | Batteries | 1 Lithium Ion batteries required.
