The STIHL AP 30 is a high-performance 36 V, 7.5 Ah Lithium-Ion battery designed to power tools within the extensive STIHL AP System. With a significant energy capacity of 270 Wh, it provides long working times for a variety of tasks. An integrated LED charge indicator clearly displays the remaining power, letting you know precisely when a recharge is needed. This battery is an ideal power source for lighter gardening, landscaping, and tree maintenance tasks, making it a versatile choice for homeowners, semi-professionals, and professional operators alike. Its durable construction is IPX4 rated, certifying it for reliable use in all weather conditions.
A key feature is its cold start capability, which protects the battery cells by warming them in a controlled manner before delivering full power. This allows the battery to function effectively in temperatures as low as -20° Celsius. Furthermore, all AP System batteries incorporate an intelligent battery management system. This clever technology ensures a constant level of power is delivered to the tool, regardless of whether the battery is 100% or 1% charged, preventing performance drop-off during use.
POWER BOOST: Thanks to intelligent electronics, STIHL power tools and batteries communicate with each other. When a device and battery are equipped with the POWER BOOST function, the battery consistently provides the maximum possible power for the specific application. To ensure optimum battery life, the device will temporarily adjust power if it detects overly intensive use.
CONSTANT POWER: Unlike many battery tools that lose performance as the battery discharges, STIHL cordless tools with CONSTANT POWER maintain consistently high power. This is achieved through intelligent electronics that regulate the power output, ensuring reliable performance from start to finish.
DURABLE, LONG-LIFE BATTERY CELLS: STIHL AP system batteries are engineered to be extremely durable and resistant, designed for the high demands of intensive professional applications. This longevity is based on a robust design and special, long-lasting battery cell technology. Intelligent electronics also allow these STIHL batteries to be charged more frequently and faster than average.
IPX4 CERTIFIED: The IPX4 rating certifies protection against splashing water from all sides. This means battery-powered tools with this certification are designed for daily professional use, even in rainy conditions.
The AP 30 battery is compatible with the AL 101, AL 301, AL 301-4 and AL 501 charger units. It provides full power for a vast range of tools including models like the BGA 86 Blower, FSA 135 Brushcutter, and MSA 160 Chainsaw. It will also operate higher-demand tools such as the MSA 220 Chainsaw with slightly reduced power. Please consult your tool’s manual to confirm compatibility and expected run times.

The AP 30.0 battery is compatible with all tools in the STIHL AP System. It provides full power to a wide range of products like the BGA 86 blower, FSA 90 brushcutter, and HSA 86 hedge trimmer. For some higher-demand professional tools, like the MSA 220 C-B chainsaw, it will operate them with slightly reduced power. It’s always best to check your tool’s manual for specific compatibility and performance information.
The STIHL AP 30.0 battery is not fully waterproof, but it is IPX4 certified. This rating means it is protected against splashing water from all directions, making it safe and reliable for use in rainy conditions and typical outdoor environments.
The battery features an integrated charge level indicator with four practical LEDs. By pressing the button on the battery, the LEDs will light up to show the current charge status, allowing you to easily see how much power is remaining and plan your work accordingly.
The ‘Constant Power’ feature is a result of STIHL’s intelligent battery electronics. It ensures that the tool receives a consistent level of power throughout the discharge cycle. This means your machine’s performance won’t fade or decrease as the battery runs down, providing reliable and predictable power from a full charge right down to the last percent.
