  • Publication number: 20080184568
    Abstract: A power tool can be split into two ends and a pole can be inserted between the two ends. Each end of the power tool has an electrical connector that maintains electrical communication between the two ends. When the ends are separated, the extension pole can be attached to each end and each end of the pole has electrical connectors so that the two ends stay in electrical communication even with the pole in place allowing the trigger and battery to maintain electrical connectivity with the motor and implement.
