I've been a DIY haircutter for decades, using a corded pro-level Oster model. Lately, I've been contemplating the switch to a cordless clipper for the convenience, particularly for outdoor use. However, I'm quite particular about what I need - an assortment of guard options, an adjustable blade lever for precision, and decent battery life, all while staying under $50. I'd love to hear if anyone has personal experience with a budget-friendly cordless hair clipper that meets these criteria. I'm looking for something that can handle light and thin hair without the need for professional-level power. Also, is there a significant performance trade-off when switching from corded to cordless in this price range? Any tips or brand recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

Found a solid Wahl model under $50 with a variety of guards and an adjustable taper lever. Battery life's decent for light use. Might fit your bill!

I've had success with the Wahl Color Pro Cordless, covers my needs.

I've had great luck with the [Brand X] cordless clipper, which meets all your criteria. It's been a game-changer for my outdoor haircuts. Definitely worth considering!
