Thinking of buying a pair of Liveryman Harmony Battery Pack Clippers, I would be using for a Full Clip on Shetland, 12.2 Welsh B and possibly a 14.2 Welsh D, do you think these would be up to the job?

No, I don't think they would. I have them and like them a lot but I don't have a native.

Have seen a lot of mixed reviews....

A friend has these, they are fine on her tb, but not so good on her native x 14hh pony.
They 'managed' a trace clip on a 14.2 Dales mare I had winter before last, but were struggling. I did ask about bib clipping my shettie, but we both reckoned that the clippers would die....
She thinks they are suited to thinner coats, or re-doing clips that are not fully grown out.

They do full clips on my Hairy yetti, no problem at all.

They did great for the first clip but struggled a bit over the rump. But I had real issues with the blades, and not being able to hold out for a full clip on a 13.3 pony.
Would recommend that they are good for tidy-ups or for fine coated beasties, but not for thick or native coats... definitely not feathers or manes!

Try and track down a set of second hand Lister Liberties. They are battery and certainly up to the job

Well.......... they are brill for clipping the dog with, if you get a special attachment, but TBH F-All use for anything else.
They'd probably be fine on a TB or WB, but a hairy native like a Shetland??? Nope, forget it.
Save your money would be my advice.

This. They are fab for finer coated horses, but a Shetland coat will kill them. Think you need something a bit more heavy-duty.

Mine just about managed a full clip on my native. I think they would have been fine for a first clip, but I left it quite late and they struggled especially over her back and quarters. I do like them though
