STIHL Unveils New ALLPRO Battery System, Delivering Faster Charging and More Power for Pros

Next-generation professional battery technology delivers more power, faster charging and longer service life, thanks to advanced tabless technology designed for all-day use

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va., Aug. 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- STIHL today announces the launch of ALLPRO, a new generation of professional battery technology designed for the real demands of forestry, landscaping and municipal services. Built for long days on the job and fewer interruptions, the ALLPRO battery system delivers more power, faster charging and longer runtime in a lighter, more efficient package. The ALLPRO system replaces the established AP system and is fully compatible with existing AP tools and chargers, allowing users to seamlessly continue using their existing tools and batteries.

At the core of ALLPRO are new high-performance batteries with varying energy capacities. Powered by innovative tabless technology, these batteries offer significantly increased power, an outstanding power-to-weight ratio, longer operating times, and much shorter charging times, all while maintaining the durability professionals expect from STIHL.

Compared to the previous-generation AP 300.0 S battery, the new ALLPRO AP 300.0 P delivers:

• 60% higher peak power
• 20% longer runtime
• Faster charge time
• Up to double the service life, up to 3,000 charge cycles

The result is fewer battery swaps and greater productivity on the job.

"With the ALLPRO battery system, we are setting the next technological milestone in the day-to-day work of our professional customers," says Michael Traub, CEO of the STIHL Group. "This innovation brings together our 100 years of expertise in the development and application of gasoline-powered equipment, as well as decades of experience in battery development. Just as importantly, compatibility with the existing AP system ensures our customers' current investments in tools and charging technology continue to deliver value, reinforcing STIHL as a trusted, long-term partner."

High-Performance Batteries Powered by Tabless Technology
The performance advantages of the ALLPRO system, featuring new battery models including the AP 100.0 P, AP 200.0 P, AP 300.0 P and AP 300.0 PC, are powered by tabless technology.

In conventional battery cells, energy flows through a single point via a tab, which restricts the flow of energy and generates heat under load. Tabless cells allow energy to flow across the entire surface of the cell, improving efficiency, reducing heat buildup, and significantly shortening charging time. Because heat is a major contributor to battery wear, this also extends overall battery life.

Rapid Charging for Maximum Efficiency
A key advantage of tabless technology is ultra-fast charging. Using the STIHL AL 1602 MO mobile fast charger, ALLPRO batteries can recharge to 80% in under ten minutes, whether indoors or outdoors - on-site, in a vehicle on the move or at a workshop.

When paired with the STIHL PS 2000 power station, batteries can also be charged in remote locations without access to a traditional power source. This enables continuous operation throughout the day, with one battery in use while another charges.

Built for tough environments, ALLPRO batteries feature an IPX5 rating, protecting against splashes and water from all sides, and are engineered to deliver up to 3,000 charge cycles without performance loss.

The Right Power for Every Application
With varying weights and energy capacities, ALLPRO batteries give professionals the flexibility to match the right power source to the job:

• AP 100.0 P (2 lbs., 111 Wh): Lightweight option ideal for handheld tools like hedge trimmers and arborist saws
• AP 200.0 P (2.9 lbs., 222 Wh): Versatile, all-around performance for everyday tasks
• AP 300.0 P (4.2 lbs., 333 Wh): The most powerful model with the longest runtime for demanding jobs 
• AP 300.0 PC: Adds connectivity for integration with STIHL's digital fleet management system

Intelligent electronics in ALLPRO batteries ensure consistent performance across all STIHL tools. Power Boost delivers maximum output when needed, while Constant Power maintains full performance throughout the entire charge, so tools do not drop in performance, regardless of the charge level.

Flexible Options to Meet Professional Needs
In addition to batteries featuring tabless technology, STIHL offers two competitively priced alternatives within the ALLPRO system. The AP 20.1 and AP 30.1 batteries use standard cell technology and are designed for professionals who prioritize durability and performance, but do not require ultra-fast charging.

The STIHL ALLPRO battery system is available now through authorized STIHL Dealers and online at stihlusa.com.
