Husqvarna Cordless Power Tools BLi200 40V Li-Ion Professional 5 Ah Battery 967964102

What It Is

The Husqvarna BLi200 is a 40V, 5.0 Ah lithium-ion professional-grade battery designed to power Husqvarna’s cordless lawn mowers, trimmers, blowers, chainsaws, and other 40V tools. It’s built for sustained runtime on medium to large properties (up to ~0.5 acres per charge, depending on tool).

Fitment & Compatibility

• Exact fit: Husqvarna 40V cordless tools (lawn mowers, trimmers, blowers, chainsaws, pole saws). Check your tool’s manual or existing battery model number (e.g., BLi100, BLi150) for compatibility.
• Not compatible with: 36V, 56V, or 80V Husqvarna systems, or any other brand’s tools (e.g., Stihl, Ego, Greenworks).
• Physical size: 6.5 x 3.5 x 4.5 inches; ensure your tool’s battery compartment has clearance (some older mower models may have a tight fit with the BLi200’s larger capacity).
• OEM only: This is a Husqvarna genuine battery. Third-party “compatible” batteries may save money but often lack the same voltage regulation and safety certifications.
• Charge compatibility: Works with Husqvarna 40V chargers (QC80, QC250, QC330). Do not use with non-Husqvarna chargers.

Key Things to Know

• Runtime: 5 Ah provides roughly 50–70 minutes of continuous mowing (depending on grass thickness and mower model). For a full acre, you’ll likely need two batteries or a second charge.
• Weight: ~2.5 lbs – heavier than the BLi100 (2.0 Ah) but still manageable for handheld tools. Expect noticeable heft on a trimmer.
• Installation: No tools required – slides into the battery slot and clicks. No wiring or modifications.
• Common gotcha: The BLi200 uses a proprietary connector. It will not fit any non-Husqvarna tool, even if the voltage matches. Also, avoid deep discharging – recharge when the tool noticeably slows to prolong battery life.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you own multiple Husqvarna 40V tools and need extended runtime for larger yards or heavy-use tasks (e.g., thick grass, dense brush). It’s overkill for small properties or occasional light trimming – a BLi150 (4.0 Ah) would save money and weight. For professional landscapers or serious homeowners, the BLi200 delivers reliable, long-lasting power and is worth the premium.
