STIHL BRA 500 Cordless Backpack Blower

The STIHL BRA 500 Cordless Backpack Blower weighs 14.5 kg with two AP 500 S batteries installed, featuring an optimized weight distribution that places the batteries and motor close to the operator’s back. This design offers superior comfort compared to traditional petrol backpack blowers, where the engine sits outside the fan wheel. The ergonomic carrying system includes high-quality shoulder and weight padding, ensuring ease of use during extended periods of work. Ideal for professionals seeking a lightweight, well-balanced, and comfortable cordless blower for demanding tasks.

The STIHL BRA 500 Cordless Backpack Blower features an advanced noise reduction system that lowers high-frequency sounds through its low fan RPM and integrated noise insulation. This innovation makes the blower significantly quieter, enhancing comfort for both the operator and bystanders, especially in sensitive environments like schools, parks, and public spaces. This thoughtful design ensures efficient performance with minimal noise disturbance, ideal for professional use where discretion and community consideration are important.

The STIHL BRA 500 Cordless Backpack Blower is designed for ease of transport and durability, featuring an aluminium tube at its base that simplifies carrying and protects the machine during transit. Its control handle includes a built-in electronic interface, allowing precise adjustment of blower speed across Low, Mid, High, and Boost modes. The display provides real-time battery status, cruise control activation, connectivity checks, and basic diagnostics. Integrated STIHL Connected technology offers enhanced machine management and monitoring, making the BRA 500 a highly efficient and user-friendly tool for professional use.

The BRA 500 cannot be used with one battery and must be used with two AP batteries. For the longest working time we recommend using the leaf blower with two AP 500 S batteries.
