dont know please let me know when you find one
I bought a hedge trimmer here in France. Battery charger failed and I tried to get a new one under guarantee – no chance – they said the charger had been used so is not a manufacturing fault!! The 3 year guarantee is not worth the paper its written on.
Spares from http://sav03.fr/boutique/28-taille-haies. A battery is 30€, goodness only knows how much they will charge postage! I will never again buy tools or household goods from Lidl
Same problem .battery charger failed after being used twice ,the only way I could get a replacement ,after a heap of emails,was to phone 08456832678, the cost of a replacement charger was £32 ,I only hope it works.?????????Got a spare battery on Ebay at £22 new charger £32 =£54……..
The hedge trimmer when i bought it was £49.99……………………??????????
For those asking about spare batteries for the Florabest 18 volt cordless hedge trimmer I have found instruction manuals on-line that give contact details for a Service Centre.
Manuals are at http://www.lidl-service.com/static/21546827/70380_EN_EL.pdf and http://www.lidl-service.com/static/77872154/59927_EN.pdf
It would seem these machines are made by Grizzly and the battery part number is 91100553
Or you could try the on-line enquiry form on the Grizzly UK web site http://www.grizzlytools.co.uk/request-form.php
These comments are really helpful, I’ve lost the charger but still have the battery, been searching for days to purchase a charger.
Please – where did you get fresh Charger?
Have just checked eBay

German supplier will cost about Eur 28 including postage. I was checking having just bought a hedge cutter from Lidl Street Somerset £40.00.
It is simply a junk when the battery does not even last a couple of weeks . And you cant find the spare battery to buy. Exteremly very poor marketing. Dont polute the planet with junk.
don’t buy electric hedge trimmers or tools from lidl. if anything goes wrong they put you through to grizzly toolswho make the trimmers and tools. if you want a battery it costs £40 incl postage, thats nearly the price of a trimmer. grizzly tools also make a aerator-scarafier combo.i bought one ,scarafier does its job,but aerator is not an aerator,it doesen’t take plugs of soil out of lawn, its just blades spinning around i had to renew lawn after iused it . completely wrecked lawn.
