Stihl ALLPRO battery system launched

Outdoor power equipment supplier Stihl has launched ALLPRO, a new generation of professional battery technology designed for the demands of forestry, landscaping and municipal services. The ALLPRO system replaces the established AP system and is fully compatible with existing AP tools and chargers.

New battery models include the AP 100.0 P, AP 200.0 P, AP 300.0 P and AP 300.0 PC, all powered by tabless technology. Unlike conventional battery cells where energy flows through a single point via a tab, tabless cells allow energy to flow across the entire surface of the cell, which Stihl said improves efficiency, reduces heat buildup and significantly shortens charging time.

Compared to the previous-generation AP 300.0 S battery, the new ALLPRO AP 300.0 P delivers 60% higher peak power, 20% longer runtime, a faster charge time and up to double the service life, Stihl reported. In addition, ALLPRO batteries can recharge to 80% in under 10 minutes using the AL 1602 MO mobile fast charger.

Intelligent electronics enable consistent performance across all Stihl tools. Power Boost delivers maximum output when needed, while Constant Power maintains full performance throughout the entire charge.

The new batteries feature an IPX5 rating, protecting against splashes and water from all sides, and are engineered to deliver up to 3,000 charge cycles without performance loss.

Two competitively priced alternatives within the ALLPRO system, the AP 20.1 and AP 30.1, use standard cell technology and are designed for professionals who do not require ultra-fast charging.
