The AP batteries are lightweight 36 V Lithium-Ion batteries that are compatible with the STIHL AP System of cordless tools, including hedge trimmers, chainsaws, grass trimmers, pole pruners, leaf blowers and lawn mowers.
They all feature a charge level indicator on the top with four LEDs so you can see how much charge you have left quickly and easily, at the touch of a button.
The working time for these batteries depends on which tool you are using them with. Take a look at the individual tool pages to find out the working times with different batteries.

Tips
#1Looking after your battery
Don't use a damp or wet battery in your tools and avoid using them in extreme temperatures (very hot or very cold). To find out more about looking after your battery, read our blog post.
#2Storing your battery
Take your battery out of the tool you have used it in and store it separately in a clean, dry place out of direct sunlight and ideally in some packaging, such as cardboard, to protect it, at a temperature between -10°C and 50°C. Don't forget to keep it out of reach of children.
