                A:  Yes, 9 AH 60v battery fits under handle with no height restrictions, but WILL make trimmer off balance, I use with 2 or 5 AH 20 volt battery to keep device on balance.

                  A:  Yes. I use the Flexvolt between my string trimmer, leaf blower, and the hedge trimmer.

                                        A:  The cutting blades are made from high quality, hardened steel and with normal usage, they will not require resharpening.However, if you accidentally hit a wire fence, stones, glass, or other hard objects, you may put a nick in the blade. There is no need to remove this nick as long as it does not interfere with the movement of the blade. If it does interfere, remove the battery and use a fine toothed file or sharpening stone to remove the nick.
