BRA 500 Cordless Backpack Leaf Blower

Introducing the new for 2025 STIHL BRA 500: A Powerful Battery-Powered Backpack Leaf Blower for Professionals

The STIHL BRA 500 is a revolutionary battery-powered backpack leaf blower, designed with professionals in mind. Capable of taking on the toughest clearing jobs, it's part of the AP System of battery tools and boasts a 72-volt motor powered by two AP batteries. This setup delivers an extremely powerful maximum blowing force of 32 newtons, comparable to the petrol-powered BR 600 professional backpack blower.

Key Features and Benefits:

• Exceptional Power: Ideal for demanding cleaning jobs, effortlessly clearing large areas in parks, fields, paths, and streets. Its high blowing force easily handles heavy and wet leaves, grass and hedge trimmings, or general rubbish.

• Constant Power Output: Like all STIHL AP System tools, the BRA 500 maintains its high power output throughout the entire battery charge.

• Optimized Weight Distribution: Despite a total weight of 14.5 kg (with two AP 500 S batteries), the innovative positioning of the batteries and motor snugly against the operator's back ensures excellent weight distribution. This design offers a more comfortable experience over long working periods compared to petrol models.

• Superior Carrying Comfort: The carrying system features comfortable shoulder and weight padding, identical to that used on the BR 800 petrol backpack leaf blower.

• Innovative Noise Reduction: Built-in noise reduction system minimizes high-frequency noises due to low fan RPM and noise insulation, making it more pleasant for bystanders in noise-sensitive areas like schools, parks, or public spaces.

• Enhanced Durability & Portability: An aluminum tube at the base makes carrying the blower to and from the work vehicle easier and increases the machine's durability during transport.

• Intuitive Control Handle: Features a built-in electronic interface allowing control of the leaf blower speed between Low, Mid, High, and Boost modes. It also displays useful information such as battery charge, cruise control activation, connectivity status, and basic diagnostic information.

Important Note: The BRA 500 requires and must be used with two AP batteries. For the longest working time, it is recommended to use two AP 500 S batteries.
