WAHL 5 Star Cordless Detailer Li Professional Precision Trimmer for Barbers & Stylists
The Detailer is Wahl's fine-line trimmer, and the cordless lithium version keeps the thing that made the corded one a fixture: a blade thin enough to cut a line you could set a ruler against.
A hundred minutes of run time per charge is the figure, but the more useful part is what happens across it. Lithium-ion holds its voltage steady as the charge drops, so the last cut of the session has the same blade speed as the first. Older battery chemistries tail off, and a trimmer that slows halfway through a line is a trimmer that wanders.
The body is light and shaped for detail work, held like a pen rather than gripped like a clipper. That is what the job asks for, since outlines, ear work and design cuts are all wrist movements.
Professional barbers buy it for fades and finishing. It is equally at home tidying a neckline in a bathroom mirror.

Application tips
Save it until last, once the bulk is off and the shape is settled. Hold it like a pen, pull the skin taut with your free hand and lead with the corner of the blade rather than the flat.
Short strokes. Let the trimmer set the line instead of shoving it along. Brush the teeth clear and run a drop of oil across the blade between clients.
Results
Lines come out sharp enough to survive close inspection, with a clean border where hair stops and skin starts.
Round the ears and along a neckline it takes hair right down without grabbing. Design work holds its shape instead of fuzzing at the edges. The body stays light in the hand, so your wrist is not complaining by the fourth head, and there is no cable to fight when you work round the back.
