"Freedom of action"

The device is with less than 2 kg total weight easily and without fatigue to handle and very easy to use by the battery.
After I had cut twice a cable, the decision for a Li Akku_Gerät was clear. Another type should not take it, so that the memory effect is avoided and you easily also "in between" can charge.
Whether one makes do with 35 cm cut length, everyone must decide for themselves. I do not lack the 15 cm over my electric predecessors anyway.
The battery invites to quickly and extends far enough for normal applications.
Incidentally, must first prove the longer service whether buying a Bosch is better than that of "no-name products" (which are not necessarily cheaper when you consider quality, design and price)
The battery in any case comes before from Malaysia. But maybe you still performs the final inspection at Bosch at least towards "Made in Germany".
