Efficient Garden Clearing with the STIHL BGA 50
The STIHL BGA 50 is the ideal battery-powered leaf blower for homeowners with small to medium-sized gardens. Its perfectly balanced and lightweight design ensures comfortable use, even over longer periods, making garden tidying a simple and enjoyable task. This model is supplied as the tool only, making it a perfect addition for those who already own batteries and a charger from the STIHL AK System. A kit version including a battery and charger is also available.
Power and Control at Your Fingertips
With a maximum blowing force of 11 Newtons and an air speed of 55 m/s, the BGA 50 packs enough power to shift all types of garden debris, from dry leaves on gravel to damp, stubborn leaves on the lawn. A key feature is the variable speed trigger, which allows you to precisely control the power output. Use lower power for delicate areas to conserve battery, and unleash the full force when you need that extra boost. STIHL’s intelligent electronics ensure the blower delivers constant power throughout the entire battery charge, so performance never fades as the battery depletes.
Designed for Convenience and Storage
Thoughtful design makes the BGA 50 incredibly user-friendly. When it’s time to put it away, the blower tube can be removed from the main housing without any tools. A practical carrying ring, or hanging eyelet, integrated into the base allows the tool to be hung securely on a wall in your garage or workshop, saving valuable floor space.
