Battery AH Explained
The best way to describe battery amp hour is that this is effectively the size of your fuel tank, the more amp hours your battery has then the longer the battery will last between charges. More amp hours does not increase the power of a given tool.
Battery Voltage Explained
A tool with a higher voltage than another is a bit like choosing an engine in a car, the higher voltage will generally mean higher power & performance. As with cars though a bigger engine does not always translate to better performance so it is important to compare the specifications of tools at different voltages between different manufacturers.
Bosch PowerForAll
The Bosch PowerForAll Tool range is a range of tools you can buy knowing that batteries are compatible with all tools in the range providing they are of the same voltage. eg 18v fits 18v, 12v (10.8v) fits 12v (10.8v) etc. Please also note that 10.8v is compatible with 12v & vice versa as it is just a name change. Indego Lawnmowers also use the PowerForAll 18v battery but require a cover plate to be removed if changing.
PowerForAll has many advantages not least the fact that once you have a tool with a few batteries then there is no need to buy the more expensive versions with battery & charger, you can just go ahead & buy the much cheaper no battery versions!
So remember PowerForAll signifies complete battery compatibility throughout the range. There is however, one caveat to this, some of the very first older chargers will not charge the very latest batteries & a battery charger upgrade will be required if you have a first generation charger. All batteries fit all tools however.
As of 2021 Bosch has licensed PowerForAll to other manufacturers whereby batteries between these manufacturers will be interchangeable.
Important
You cannot use Bosch Pro (Blue) batteries in either 12v or 18v DIY (Green) products.

Read 29 Customer Review(s) for Bosch UNIVERSALHEDGECUT 18V-55 P4A 18v Cordless Hedge Trimmer 550mm
Lovely and light, much more comfortable to operate than the corded Bosch trimmer it has replaced. Great price and fast delivery too, thanks!
Hedgetrimmer cuts much better than I expected for a cordless option. Happy, but 4 out of 5 because not many things are perfect.
I find the Bosch hedge trimmer easy to use, the only thing I have an issue with is that sometimes when squeezing the handle on the side of the trimmer it doesn't work.
Great customer service
Awesome hedge cutter very powerful great cutting capacity.
An unexpectedly high-performance piece of kit, “semi-pro” rather than merely domestic. It made short work of our neighbourhood laurel hedge, and managed it all on the 2.0Ah battery we already had for our Bosch strimmer. The anti-jamming auto-reverse function engaged a few times on larger branches and worked as designed; a significant improvement over the old domestic Flymo trimmer it’s replaced. Also, its 55cm blade was fully usable and reduced the job time. Overall, well worth the price difference over the cheaper models in the range.
