      why use a lopper? Get a an electric Ryobi pole saw with the extension. It is oil-less and with the large battery you can cut up to 6" limbs or kudzu easily. if I was not old now, I could cut it faster and longer. I flew F-4 jets in Vietnam and injured my back and both shoulders. Takes a lot of time for me.
