Key Features

High-Capacity 56V Lithium-Ion Power

The battery features 56V output, 40Ah capacity and delivers approximately 2,000Wh of stored energy, providing substantial runtime for demanding mowing applications.

Designed to provide:

Consistent high-output performance
Fade-free power delivery under load
Long runtime for large-area mowing
Professional-grade energy storage capacity

STIGA ePower Pro Modular Battery System

This battery is part of STIGA’s modular ePower Pro system, allowing operators to scale runtime depending on the application.

Performance potential includes:

Single battery: coverage up to 7,500m²
Dual battery setup: coverage up to 15,000m² (machine dependent)
Swappable design for extended or near-unlimited runtime with additional batteries

This makes the system highly flexible for larger properties and commercial use.

Advanced Battery Management System (BMS)

An integrated smart Battery Management System (BMS) continuously monitors:

Cell balance
Voltage stability
Temperature management
Charge and discharge optimisation

This helps maximise battery lifespan while maintaining consistent performance under heavy load.

Advanced Thermal Management

The ePower Pro battery incorporates Phase Change Material (PCM) cooling technology, designed to absorb and regulate heat generated during operation.

Benefits include:

Improved performance under sustained load
Better temperature stability
Enhanced cell protection
Extended battery longevity

This makes the battery particularly well suited to demanding professional mowing applications.

IP65 Sealed Aluminium Construction

Unlike many conventional battery packs, the ePower Pro features a fully sealed die-cast aluminium body with IP65 protection, offering resistance against:

Dust ingress
Moisture and water spray
Outdoor debris
Daily commercial wear

The rugged housing also contributes to structural strength and cooling efficiency.

Fast Charging Capability

The battery supports rapid charging with compatible chargers, with recharge times of approximately 2.5 hours (charger dependent).

This helps minimise downtime and improve productivity.

Suitable Machines / Compatible Models

The Mountfield / STIGA 40Ah ePower Pro Battery (279000004) is designed for compatible STIGA battery ride-on mowers, including:

STIGA Estate 384e
STIGA Estate 598e
STIGA Tornado 398e
STIGA Tornado 5108e

(Compatibility may depend on machine generation and battery system configuration — always confirm fitment before ordering.)

Typical Applications
