Does the folding hinge affect cutting performance?

No. The hinge is in the shaft for storage and transport; the trimmer runs normally when unfolded and locked.

What batteries does it use?

It runs on DeWalt 20V MAX batteries and the kit includes a 5Ah pack and charger.

The swath adjusts from 13 to 15 inches, so you can run narrower for tight spots or wider for open lawn edges.

It is a string trimmer, so it handles trimming and light edging along beds and walkways. It is not a dedicated edger.

It suits mid-size yards. On very large properties, expect to swap batteries or run at lower speed to stretch runtime.
