STIHL launches new AP 500's battery promotion
STIHL has launched an exclusive promotion on its cutting-edge AP 500 S battery, the most powerful AP battery in the STIHL range. Until 30th July 2025, professional users purchasing two AP 500 S batteries will receive a third AP 500 S battery for free.

In addition, during this period, professionals buying selected tools complete with an AP 500 S battery will receive a second AP 500 S battery free of charge.
This promotion is available across the following tools in the STIHL AP System: FSA 200, FSA 400, BGA 300, MSA 300, TSA 300.
Compatible with all professional STIHL AP System tools, the 36V AP 500 S features advanced flat power laminate cells, doubling its service life to up to 2,400 charge cycles and offering a working lifespan of up to ten years. It also features cold start technology to allow working from temperatures up to -20 degrees Celsius.
As with all AP batteries, the AP 500 S provides constant power throughout the battery discharge. Smart electronics measure and compensate for voltage drops during use, meaning the typical drop in power which is common with Lithium-Ion batteries does not occur, providing petrol-like performance from the start to the end.
With 20% more capacity and longer operating time across all AP System tools, the AP 500 S adds only 200g in weight, allowing professionals to work longer without significantly increasing the system's overall weight.
Additionally, the AP 500 S has STIHL Connected built in, enabling users to track total discharge time and battery location for smarter fleet management.
The AP 500 S battery promotion is available exclusively from STIHL Approved Dealers.
