Katana sitewide 40% discount. Free 2ah battery with code. I have brought their tools before and found them a good deal at the discounted price. They have had several 40 - 50% off sales recently.
Free delivery if you order over $100 after discount.
Ordered a line trimmer and fan this time around.
Don't forget to add the free battery and 40% discount code.

Katana, I guess.
I can't find anything else to fit yet. Tried ozito, AEG and aldi.
I believe it's Mitre 10 (Rockwell), worx and Supercheap auto
Generally which of these have the best battery/charger sales? Approx what price are good?
How sure are you this is correct? I’d love it to be correct as would increase the range of tools available but I don’t think it’s correct. Someone on a previous deal posted the manufacturer of Katana and it wasn’t Positec
It's unlikely to be correct, see further down.
Recent 50% off reduced to 40% on boxing day sales?
Yep. They have done 40 a few times. Only seen one 50 off. Spent $300 at 50% off and another $100 today.
FREE2AH code for 2ah battery seems not working cart total only comes to 40% off blower & battery.
Worked for me. Put in KATANARAMA first then FREE2AH. Mentioned on their homepage as well. Added free battery in small print just above total.
Okie, so we just need to add the code & not the battery as well to the cart.
Yep. Add code and it adds battery in small print. When you do checkout near last step it shows the battery as well.
In case you're interested, I bought into the last 50% off deal and took a good look at the batteries, determining the original OEM in the process:

As for who they'd be "compatible" with, I'd say Yato is the only one I am aware of that I suspect to be a drop-in compatible.
That's seriously brilliant! It would be awesome to have your skills. Thanks!
This is so good. Someone above suggest Rockwell may be compatible and also WORX. I have to say, Rockwell range of tools looks almost identical
I'm not so sure. Looking at the thicker profile rails of the Rockwell battery and a few keying "bumps" in front of the contact receptacles, they don't look quite right for the Katana. Likewise, their charger is a different design. As for WORX, I think they're physically compatible with Rockwell at a glance, but again, likely not Katana unless proven otherwise. I don't have either on hand, so I can't say for sure, but it doesn't pass my eyes. Look up an eBay listing for a Rockwell battery to get a good look and compare for yourself.
A helpful OzBargainer put this one together which confirms my suspicions regarding Rockwell and WORX looking the same - https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/591076
The only one I was willing to vouch for was Yato, as even though I don't have any, the charger and batteries are visually (shape-wise) identical to Katana.
Caveat emptor!
Legend thanks mate
For $19 more you can get the blower too with 2x 2ah batteries and 1x 4.5ah battery
Don't forget to add a charger if you're new to the ecosystem and you're not buying a kit!
Takes some of the value of of the deal.
Not a bad deal considering it comes with a 5 year warranty, and it's an actual line-trimmer (Not like the Ozito one that requires you to buy plastic blades!).
Brushless motor too.
Katana seems to be a subsidiary of Kinchrome Tools by the looks of it
Tempted to go for the Standard Line Trimmer (Which isn't brushless) + Charger + Free battery = $74.79 Delivered, but I honestly don't know how long a 2.5AH battery would last (Run time wise)?
Edit: Made the decision to go with the Standard Line Trimmer, 4ah Battery & Charger, 2.5ah Battery (Free) = $100.80 Delivered - Lets hope I don't regret my purchase!
Haha. I did the same thing too. Line trimmer looks half decent for the money (fingers crossed). Mower actually seems decent too. Cheap way to go all electric hehe.
PS. @OP. Thanks for the heads-up!
You mean $119.40 or is this a different deal?
Different deal, they have two Line Trimmer models, the one OP posted and a more basic one (Brush motor instead of brushless)
Ah crap. Need to buy a charger too with this deal?
Just a quick PSA for all who purchased Katana tools -
To get your 5-year warranty, you must register your tool within 30 days, otherwise you will only have three years according to their Warranty page:
https://www.katanapowertools.com.au/warranty
So don't forget to register your tools via https://www.katanapowertools.com.au/register-tool to make sure you get your full 5-year warranty on the tool. Batteries appear to be 3-years regardless. It doesn't matter if you purchased via a reseller or via their webpage, it seems you need to do the registration process. After registration, it should come up in your tool bag - https://www.katanapowertools.com.au/my-tool-bag
What battery ecosystem are these?
