Estimated runtimes for Tough blowing with Husqvarna 550iBTX (battery and charger included).

Runtimes for the backpack battery are not shown by default. To view them, please select the checkbox above.

Battery runtime on a single charge depends on several factors such as battery capacity, which kind of machine it powers, the type of application, and external conditions such as ambient temperature and weather. Battery runtime is also influenced by e.g. the battery’s age and health status, the battery’s usage history and remaining capacity, and how the equipment is operated and the power level of the application. The battery runtimes shown are “up to” values based on internal testing of products in energy saving mode, including typical work, basic maintenance, and movement/climbing. These figures are guidelines only and may vary between tasks, settings, and environments, and are not guaranteed to be repeatable in real-world use.

Frequently asked questions

What are the CFM and MPH ratings for the Husqvarna 550iBTX?

The Husqvarna 550iBTX delivers a maximum air flow of 551 CFM and a maximum air speed of 148 MPH. Together, these generate 21 Newtons of blow force, providing clearing power comparable to a 50cc gas backpack blower.

Does the Husqvarna 550iBTX come with a battery and charger?

Yes, this specific kit (model 970502602) includes the high-capacity BLi950X backpack battery (36V, 31.1 Ah) and the QC500 fast charger.

Can the Husqvarna 550iBTX be used in the rain?

Yes, the Husqvarna 550iBTX features an IPX4 weatherproof rating. This means the blower and its electrical components are protected against splashing water from any direction, allowing you to work safely in damp conditions or light rain.

How much does the Husqvarna 550iBTX weigh?

The blower unit itself weighs 13.9 lbs excluding the battery. When equipped with the included BLi950X backpack battery, the ergonomic harness distributes the combined weight across your shoulders and hips to reduce operator fatigue.

What kind of motor does the Husqvarna 550iBTX use?

This leaf blower utilizes a highly efficient brushless motor. Brushless technology eliminates internal friction, runs cooler, maximizes battery runtime, and requires less maintenance than traditional brushed motors.

How do I track the Husqvarna 550iBTX in my equipment fleet?

The 550iBTX includes integrated connectivity that pairs with the Husqvarna Fleet Services app. This allows professionals to track the machine's last known location, view usage statistics, monitor service history, and check battery status from a smartphone.

Is the Husqvarna 550iBTX as powerful as a gas blower?

Yes, the 21 Newtons of blow force generated by the 550iBTX makes its clearing performance equivalent to a traditional 50cc gas backpack blower, but with zero direct carbon emissions and significantly lower maintenance requirements.

How long does the Husqvarna 550iBTX battery last on a single charge?

Battery runtime depends on the application, but the included BLi950X 31.1 Ah backpack battery is engineered for extended commercial use. Runtimes will vary based on whether you are doing light sweeping or utilizing Boost mode for heavy wet debris.
