Does this trimmer come with the battery or is it sold separately? Thanks!

The Hitachi does come with the battery and the duration of use is very good. I can trim just about my whole yard of 3/4 acre before the charge expires.

No. This is just the working handle and trimmer. The battery and charger are separate, but you can also find it sold as a complete kit.

The trimmer I have is model NST2018, and it works well with that one. The batteries it came with are 18 volt single source slide pack batteries. I do not see a model number on them.

No. This is just the battery. However, if you purchase the trimmer to go with it, it includes a (lower capacity) battery, as well as a changer that works with this. Awesome battery, BTW.

Yes, both came with the product when I purchased it a year ago. By the way, it continues to be one of the best purchases I've made in gardening equipment. Holds a charge for a long time, light weight compared to other trimmers so easy to use.

No, the battery did not come with a charger. My charger came when I bought the trimmer and original battery.

This is bare tool only. I think it state that on amazon. I did not see any seller selling this hammer tool with battery

Yes, the battery does come with it. However after I received mine it worked for a couple of days and quit. The manufacture is providing warranty work after I pay the expense of shipping.

The charger came with mine. Read the product info....if charger is not included it will say , trimmer only.

Yes it does as well as 1 battery pack. I ordered an extra battery pack and 2 more spools of string but you don't have to do that. I am a 66 yr old woman and love the trimmer. It's light and easy to use and great for me.

When I ordered my Cordless String Trimmer I also ordered one 40V 4 AH battery to be used with this trimmer. This one battery proved to be sufficient for my own yard trimming needs. However, I noticed that additional batteries are available to order.

This specific listing at the $74.97 price is directly from Amazon. CPO Outlets also offers this item on Amazon. Our cost is $81.99 plus shipping. Yes, the NHT2218 hedge trimmer does include the battery.

That's a good deal. You could go ahead and buy a spare battery from Amazon and for ~$131 you'd have a nice trimmer setup. We have a small in-town yard and I have yet to run through both batteries but I always go through one, so having the spare is essential. I also have to agree to some extent with Anthony Deyal, in that if you're using the trimmer for heavy use, the battery drains real fast. It's got plenty of torque with the gear drive (I use it to trim hedges occasionally), but using that kind of power sucks the battery dry. It really needs a li-ion pack.

Sorry I could not finad a spare Battery for this trimmer either. Amazon does have a spare battrery for the larger trimmer though.

It does, but I would not buy it. It's a waste of money. The battery does not hold a charge any better than the four that came with the two B&D; tools I originally bought. I will no longer buy tools that depend on rechargeable batteries; they do not work. I have a small yard and I can't complete a task with my trimmer or weed wacker without the battery running down.

It comes with a battery. It's a duracell so you might be able to order from Duracel web-site? OR you could probably get one from Sears or Home Depot.
