Stiga having 3 batteries systems all at the same time seems abit confusing.

 

24v homeowner 48v mid ranage then 80v pro

 

 

 

Is a  4ah 48v same as say a 8ah 24v?

 

4 x 48 = 198

8 x 24 = 198

11x18 = 198

 

 

Having theorectically the same  capacity  say  as a 11ah 18v battery makes it sound alot less expensive?

 

Is that right?

 

Says its a 1000w motor same as the makita cordless think,  whats are stihl motors rated seems a secret?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Stiga Mountfield (Stiga own Mountfield) entered the market a few years ago with the Freedom 48 system aimed at domestic users.
They then introduced the 80V system, which consisted of heavier duty machines and used a heavy 80V battery. Not strictly classed as Pro user stuff, but pretty good. There is a Pro mulching mower in the range.
Next came the lightweight 24v kit, all supplied in a box with a battery and charger, specifically aimed at domestic market.

Now we have the 500 series (also 48V), which is the latest technology and will I think slowly replace the older 80V and 48V ranges.

The 500 series batteries come in 2.0ah, 4.0ah and 5.0ah varieties. All exactly the same size, but different weights.
The 500 series mowers generally use 2 batteries.

The 80V saw is big and heavy. It uses a 2.5 ah 80 v battery providing 200w/h of power.

The 500 series saw is much more compact, and a topper to boot. Using just one 4.ah battery which provides 172w/h of power.
