V20 Cordless 22-in Hedge Trimmer (Tool Only) features a powerful motor allowing you to take on the tasks at hand. This tool-only configuration is intended for buyers who already own a compatible battery and charger.
Who is the tool-only CMCHTS820B a good match for?
The CMCHTS820B is right for V20 platform owners who already have batteries and just need the trimmer body. A 2Ah battery is adequate for routine trimming; a 4Ah pack extends session length on larger hedges.
What can a 22-inch blade cover in a typical yard?
A 22-inch blade covers about 22 inches of hedge per stroke. On straight, established hedges it allows fast, consistent passes. On shaped topiaries or tight corners, a longer blade requires more care to maintain the shape, but remains manageable.
How does the CMCHTS820B compare with the brushless RP CMCHT830B?
Both have 22-inch blades. The 820B uses a brushed motor and is the value option for light to moderate seasonal trimming. The CMCHT830B's brushless RP motor handles denser growth, runs more efficiently per charge, and is better suited for frequent or heavy use.
Does a brushed hedge trimmer work on woody shrubs?
A brushed hedge trimmer handles light to moderate woody growth well. Dense, thick-stemmed overgrowth pushes the motor harder and drains the battery faster. For established hedges trimmed regularly, the 820B does the job without issue.
Is the CMCHTS820B compatible with all V20 batteries and chargers?
Yes. Any V20 battery — 1.5Ah, 2Ah, 4Ah, 6Ah — runs the CMCHTS820B. The charger included in any CRAFTSMAN V20 kit is also compatible.
