Professional work in the green sector demands power, continuity and, above all, reliability. With the new STIHL ALLPRO battery system, the German brand carries its experience in professional equipment into a new generation of cordless machines, designed for intensive use and long working days.
ALLPRO is the evolution of the earlier STIHL AP system, with a clear goal: to give professionals more power, shorter charging times and significantly longer battery life, while keeping compatibility with AP system tools.
A battery designed to last
One of the most interesting aspects of the new range concerns the service life of the batteries themselves.
The high-performance STIHL ALLPRO AP 100.0 P, AP 200.0 P and AP 300.0 P(C) batteries use a new tabless cell technology, developed to reduce internal resistance and to handle high power output and heat build-up more effectively.
The figure STIHL quotes is a striking one: up to 3,000 charge cycles with no noticeable drop in performance, and the battery can still be used beyond that point.
For anyone who uses chainsaws, brushcutters, blowers, hedge trimmers and other professional equipment every day, that means a battery designed not only to provide run time, but above all to keep its performance steady over the years.
STIHL reliability in the cordless world too
For more than a century the STIHL name has been tied to forestry, gardening and professional grounds maintenance equipment. With ALLPRO, that experience is being carried over to battery technology in ever more concrete terms.
The new Performance batteries were developed with real working conditions in mind: intensive use, frequent charge and discharge cycles, and the need to keep working in demanding weather.
The AP 100.0 P, AP 200.0 P and AP 300.0 P(C) models also feature IPX5 protection, improving resistance when working in rain and damp conditions.
It is precisely this combination of technology and toughness that makes ALLPRO so interesting for gardeners, grounds staff, arborists and professionals who cannot afford long interruptions during the day.
More run time, but above all less downtime
A professional battery does not just have to last a long time over its life: it also has to be ready quickly so you can get back to work.
With a STIHL AL 1802 MO charger, ALLPRO Performance batteries can reach 80% charge in just 9 minutes, under the conditions specified by the manufacturer.
That changes how the working day is organised. A short break is enough to recover a good part of the run time, reducing the number of spare batteries needed and limiting interruptions.
Performance closer and closer to petrol machines
ALLPRO was not developed simply to increase run time. STIHL quotes up to 60% more peak power than the previous AP 300 S in the configurations indicated by the manufacturer.
The system therefore brings together some of the key advantages of battery technology — lower noise, no exhaust emissions in use and great practicality — with performance designed for demanding professional applications.
The main strengths of the new platform are:
- up to 3,000 charge cycles with no noticeable loss of performance on Performance batteries;
- charging to 80% in just 9 minutes with compatible chargers and conditions;
- higher peak power than the previous generation;
- high protection against water and weather;
- compatibility with tools from the previous STIHL AP system.
A platform built around the professional
A further advantage of ALLPRO is continuity with the AP system. Anyone who already owns professional STIHL equipment does not have to start from scratch: the new system keeps compatibility with AP tools, allowing the fleet to be updated gradually.
That matters a great deal to a professional, because a battery is now part of a genuine ecosystem made up of machines, chargers and accessories.
STIHL ALLPRO: power today, reliability over time
The real innovation of the new STIHL ALLPRO batteries is therefore not only in the numbers. It lies in the intention to build a platform capable of holding high performance over time, even when it is used every single day.
Up to 3,000 charge cycles, ultra-fast charging, more power and professional toughness make ALLPRO one of the most significant steps forward in the STIHL cordless range.
For occasional use, run time alone may be enough. For a professional, what really counts is knowing the machine will be ready to work today, tomorrow and for many seasons to come. Durability and reliability are exactly what STIHL built the new ALLPRO generation on.
