Feel, Fuel & Noise
As the BGA 100 and the BGA 60 are both Stihl blowers, they benefit from the same level of quality and attention to detail.
- These two products are handheld blowers and therefore provide you with superior mobility.
- These models are cordless blowers, harnessing the convenience and affordability of rechargeable batteries as their power source, promoting sustainability and ease of use.
- In order to compare the weight of these 2 units, we first need to keep in mind that the Stihl BGA 60 comes with a battery, while the Stihl BGA 100 is a bare tool. Thus, for the comparison to make sense, we must consider the bare tool weight of the BGA 60. Excluding the batteries, the Stihl BGA 100, which is 5.5 lbs, is somewhat heavier than the Stihl BGA 60 at 5.1 lbs. That said, even when factoring the battery in, the latter remains the lightest unit (5.1 lbs).
- With a noise rating of 56 dB for both devices, you can expect them to be equally considerate of your neighbors and equally comfortable for you to use.
CFM & MPH
- With a marginal CFM advantage (494 vs 459 CFM), the Stihl BGA 100 may offer a modest edge over the Stihl BGA 60 (459 CFM) in terms of leaf-moving capability.
- With an MPH of 168, the Stihl BGA 100 edges out the 154 MPH of the Stihl BGA 60, potentially improving its performance in leaf blowing and debris lifting tasks.
Other features
- Neither the Stihl BGA 100 nor the Stihl BGA 60 can vacuum leaves, so you'll need an alternative approach to collect them.
