A cordless battery powered edger is a nice tool to have in your collection of yard tools. Its ease in handling and light weight make using this tool easy enough for any one to use.
Edging your yard can seem like a waste of time but in reality it's one of the most important and over looked parts of lawn care. It's kind of like getting a hair cut but your hair is still hanging down in your eyes, it doesn't look neat until it is trimmed.

One advantage of a cordless battery powered edger is that there is no gas to use so you can save money by not having to buy gas. Also with a gas powered edger most have you mix oil with the gas so here is another money saving reason. Going green is a big deal and with a battery operated edger you will be helping protect the environment.
Now take a look at mobility. With a corded electric edger you have to drag an extension cord around every where you move. This can cause the cord to get tangled around bushes, trees or any other obstacle in your yard. With a cordless battery powered edger you walk right to the spot you need to edge with no problems and get right to work.
As with any cordless battery powered tool I suggest getting a extra battery so when your using one you have one on standby when the battery your using goes dead. There are many different brands out for sale of this tool. Check different ads for deals and go to tool forums to hear what others have to say about the brand your interested in buying. Pick the one your comfortable with and start making yard work easier and more enjoyable.
