Pellenc has launched what they describe as "the first truly professional ‘on-board’ battery range" - The Pellenc Alpha range.

The range sees two new batteries (P260 and P520) which can be directly fitted to the tools or fitted to a new harness.

Comprising the Helion Alpha hedge trimmers and the Excelion Alpha grass strimmer, two tools which use the latest on-board batteries, the 260 and 520, the company says it was designed to bring together ergonomics and efficiency. 

The Helion Alpha hedge trimmers: handling and power

The Helion Alpha allows for precision pruning of hedges or other shrubs, particularly on hard, dry wood. Its cutter bar combines increased thickness (2.25 mm), tooth opening (33 mm) and strength.

Pellenc say its engine ensures excellent performance and allows for cuts of up to 33 mm in diameter. In addition to offering 3 different working speeds, it is 100% waterproof and features a new cutter bar orientation system.

The Excelion Alpha grass cutter

Able to cut dense patches as well as soft grasses, the Pellenc say the Excelion Alpha can be used for mowing or road-side finishing work, in cities and gardens alike.

The company says it synthesises high cutting capacities (6400 rpm, 400 mm with 2.4 mm wire), making it efficient on all surfaces. They continue by saying its Alphacut cutting head and rotation speed guarantee high-quality mulching, even on tough grasses. 

The Alpha harness
The Pellenc Alpha back harness can be equipped with the new 260 and 520 batteries in order to use them with all tools within the Pellenc range. Pellenc say their engineers designed the carrying ergonomics and ease of use with particular care.

All Pellenc batteries and tools come with a three-year commercial warranty and are distributed in Ireland exclusively by Etesia UK.
