Lister Libretto
Slim, quiet and surprising capable .The Libretto clipper describes it self as a super trimmer and it most certainly is....
Using the same battery pack as the Lister Liberty it can run for up to 4 hours !
The Libretto is flexible, it has a mains adapter so it can run direct from the mains ( available in the yard pack )
If you already own a Lister Liberty you can get the Libretto clipper on it own ( solo ) or it can even run via the vehicle leads directly from a 12v car battery.
The Libretto is powered by a 12v motor so it is cool running and quiet in use, please note this is compared to most 240v mains clippers.
The Libretto uses the A5 blade system these are easy to use and are pretension so there is less to fiddle with . The range of blades is huge going from surgical(0.2mm) to leaving 8mm of hair. The Libretto comes with a no.10 blade this leaves 1.8mm of hair so it is very similar to the length left by a Lister A2F blade.
The Libretto will give a full clip on most horses , and is well suited to the lighter coated breeds. The Libretto can clip light manes and feather but only just. If this is a requirement you should look at the Lister Star or similar.
Additionally with a quick change of blades you can clip your dog.
The Libretto is a very capable light - medium duty machine that can do so much more than just trim.

Libretto
We Say :
We have tested this on our own horses including a cob , The Libretto was more than able to hog the mane and trim feather.
Whilst it is not as quick as a full size clipper it is a lot more than a plain trimmer ........
