  • Compatible with all cordless tools in the STIHL AK System
  • Intelligent electronics deliver constant power output, regardless of charge level

Reliable Power for the STIHL AK System

The STIHL AK 20 is a versatile and durable 36V, 4.0 Ah Lithium-Ion battery, engineered to power the entire range of tools within the STIHL AK System. With a substantial energy capacity of 144 Wh, it provides long-lasting performance for homeowners tackling demanding gardening tasks. Its lightweight design of just 1.2 kg ensures that tools remain balanced and comfortable to use for extended periods.

Intelligent and User-Friendly Design

A key feature of the AK 20 is its integrated 4-LED charge indicator, which provides a clear and immediate display of the remaining power, so you always know when it’s time to recharge. Furthermore, STIHL’s intelligent battery management system ensures a constant level of power is delivered throughout the discharge cycle. Unlike other systems that lose performance as the battery drains, a STIHL tool will operate with consistently high power whether the battery is 100% or 1% charged.

Advanced Technology for All Conditions

The AK 20 battery incorporates a special cold start feature. This technology protects the cells in low temperatures by warming them in a controlled manner before delivering full power, enabling reliable operation in conditions down to -20° Celsius. The battery cells themselves are designed to be extremely durable and resistant, ensuring a very long service life even under intensive use. This battery is compatible with the STIHL AL 101, AL 301, and AL 501 charger units.

Tool Compatibility

The AK 20 battery provides optimal power for a wide range of tools, although performance may vary depending on the tool’s power demands. It delivers full power for models such as the MSA 60, HTA 50, HLA 56, FSA 60, BGA 57, SHA 56, RMA 235, and RLA 240. For higher-demand tools like the MSA 70, the battery will operate at a slightly reduced power output to ensure efficient operation.
