Their handy enough to have for odd jobs. A little lacking in power' but will shear 4-5 ewes on a battery.I’m needing some new clippers for dagging out ect, not enough work to warrant a professional motor and hand piece has anyone used these?? View attachment 728534
Depends what you want. If you want a handy one to do odd and sods the above is better.There have been threads on here about them, try a Google search on battery sheep shears, I am about to buy some too and so I found that out the other day.
I just can't decide whether to buy those sort or the ones that are nearly three times the money with the big battery on your belt and a holster.
Thinking of things I am wondering whether the expensive ones would be less tiring to use and always have a handy parking place when you are fighting the next sheep into the head yoke or wherever.
Then I am wondering if the curly cable on those ones would get in the way or be too tight when you are clipping cattle along their backs for winter.
Having many battery powered things on the farm already I am wondering about the balance of the thing in your hand and whether I need yet another charger to lose, catch fire or whatever too.
Somedays I don't feel decisive...........
perhaps decisions would be made easier if all the many different variety of batteries and chargers for cordless stuff.....where standardised .
the battery costs huge percentage of the job, afterall.
as well as being better for the humviroment
(manufacturers take note )
i've got the masterclip ones very good,i think there was some difference in battery ampage between the welsh shearing lot and the others if i recallThe Horner, Mudge, Masterclip and Highway Shearing version of the Li-ion hand machine are all the exact same as the Welsh Shearing pictured above... and all come from China (and are good machines!!), Just the colour changes...
How much more standardised do you want?
They can be bought on eBay, direct from China, for around half the price quoted by most suppliers here.
Certainly looks the same , good find.The Horner, Mudge, Masterclip and Highway Shearing version of the Li-ion hand machine are all the exact same as the Welsh Shearing pictured above... and all come from China (and are good machines!!), Just the colour changes...

I meant cordless stuff in general right down to things like phones.
It can be done, I'm sure.
they did it with these types.....
