Bosch AHS 50-20 LI P4A 18v Cordless Hedge Trimmer 500mm
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.

Excellent service with prompt delivery of my order. The trimmer performs exceedingly well and is easy to handle with it's low weight. Very good value overall.
An excellent product, and the buying process was very easy. What's not to like?
Good product and fast delivery
Good trimmer with useful reach and cutting features.
I am a professional gardener nearing retirement. I used to cut a lot of large hedges and for that purpose have a professional petrol hedge trimmer and a long reach one. However, due to a shoulder and upper arm injury, I have had to give up all my hedge cutting, but still trim shrubs if required by my clients. I purchased the AHS 50-20 LI P4A as a light weight alternative to my heavy petrol machines and have found it to be quite capable of dealing with the type of work I now do, The build quality is pretty standard for Bosch, being quite ergonomic and clean in its design and feeling solid. I had wondered, while ordering, whether the 2ah battery would be sufficient, so on the first couple of jobs, I have taken my petrol machine along as a back-up, but that has not been required, as the fully charged 2ah battery has coped with around 40 minutes of cutting, with no sign of slowing or cutting out. There are a couple of niggles. One is that if the safety switches on the front handle are not held it just right, the machine cuts off, which is a bit of a fiddle when cutting at awkward angles and the tip guard of the cutting bar could be better designed, as the current shape, means it has a tendency to cause drag when running the blade through dense top-growth. All in all, I am happy with it, as a stop-gap machine to see me through to retirement, with possible occasional use after that.
The hedge trimmer is light, well balanced and performs very well. Like all bosch power tools it is well designed, well manufactured and hope it will prove reliable.
