The Stihl BGA 160 cordless blower is a high-performance tool designed for professional grounds maintenance and landscaping. It offers strong clearing power in a lightweight, quiet package, making it ideal for contractors and facilities teams who need reliable performance without petrol fumes or noise complaints.
STIHL BGA 160 AP Battery Run Time
| Battery | AP 20 | AP 200 S | AP 30 | AP 300 S | AP 500 S |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Eco mode | 58 mins | 75 mins | 106 mins | 110 mins | 130 mins |
| High power | 8 mins | 10 mins | 14 mins | 15 mins | 17 mins |
Eco mode delivers longer run time for lighter blowing tasks, while high power mode offers maximum air speed for heavy debris. Actual working times can vary depending on airflow settings and usage conditions.
Why choose the Stihl BGA160 cordless blower?
The BGA160 sits above the BGA 86 in power and below the backpack BGA 200, delivering a strong 21 Newton blowing force. It outperforms Stihl’s petrol handheld models (BG 56 and BG 86) but without the emissions, refuelling, or extra vibration.
Its compact build and balanced design make it easy to handle, especially around tight spaces and delicate planting areas. The central battery position helps prevent wrist strain and keeps the blower steady even at full power.
Key features of the BGA 160
Full power throughout each charge
Many cordless blowers lose strength as the battery runs down — not the Stihl BGA160. It maintains a constant airflow until the battery is fully depleted, so you get full performance throughout the job.
Variable speed and boost mode
The variable trigger lets you adjust the power as you go. For stubborn wet leaves or heavy debris, simply press harder to engage the boost mode for maximum force. Cruise control is included for long clearing sessions, reducing finger strain.
Lightweight and easy to handle
At 2.6 kg (without battery), the BGA160 is designed for comfortable use over extended periods. The short, compact tube makes it simple to navigate around obstacles without awkward twisting.
Reduced noise for sensitive areas
With a sound pressure level of just 80 dB(A), this blower is suitable for schools, hospitals, parks, or early morning work without disturbing people nearby. No ear defenders needed for most users.
Balanced design and angled tube
The angled blower tube helps reduce wrist fatigue, keeping the airflow steady and reducing the effort needed to control direction. The handle and tube are aligned to avoid any twisting motion.
Efficient EC motor
The brushless EC motor is durable and highly efficient, providing a long service life and lower maintenance compared to petrol engines. It also helps deliver strong runtime from each battery charge.
Smart connector compatibility
The BGA 160 supports Stihl’s Smart Connector system, allowing you to track usage hours and maintenance intervals via the Stihl connected app — handy for professional fleet management.
Weather-resistant build
The IPX4 splash protection means you can keep working in light rain without worrying about water damage.
Battery and runtime
The recommended AP 300 S battery offers up to 110 minutes on low power and around 15 minutes on boost. Charging times are roughly 55 minutes to 80% with the AL 500 charger (sold separately). Other AP system batteries can also be used, depending on your needs.
