EGO’s new ARC Lithium MAXTM battery has been developed to showcase the full capability of battery power, giving dealers a compelling response to the most common question: Will it keep up with petrol?
As the leader in battery-powered outdoor power equipment, EGO understands that dealers need products that not only deliver petrol-matching power but also make it easier to demonstrate the benefits battery technology can bring to their customers’ businesses.
That’s the thinking behind the ARC Lithium MAXTM, which maximises productive uptime through faster charging, fewer battery changes and improved performance, enabling professional users to complete up to 20% more work* over the course of an entire working day. The result is a battery that gives dealers a compelling solution for customers looking to transition to battery-powered equipment with confidence.
Andrew Frohock, IoT Product Manager for EGO, commented: “As more professional users look to reduce emissions and work with lower noise and vibrations, dealers need products that remove the barriers to battery adoption and create opportunities to move customers into premium battery solutions.
“Built on EGO’s industry-leading 56V platform, the ARC Lithium MAXTM battery provides a much higher power output than a standard-cell battery, delivering the dependable all-day performance professional users expect and helping businesses improve productivity, take on more jobs and maximise the return from every project.”
Designed around the demands of professional users, the battery delivers greater confidence that equipment has the power and durability to perform for a full working day. With reduced heat generation, the new battery delivers a 40% higher power output** and faster charging, enabling more work to be completed per charge. Compatibility with EGO’s full product range also means users can integrate the ARC Lithium MAXTM into their current inventory.
Andrew continued: “As a battery-first brand from day one, we are committed to pushing the boundaries of cordless performance. Integrating tabless cell technology into our platform is the next step in that journey, and as a result we have created a battery that sets a new benchmark for battery-powered performance and allows users to spend less time waiting and more time working.”
When paired with the PGXTM Power Bank, a compatible ARC Lithium MAXTM battery can be charged from empty to 100% full in as little as 20 minutes, while its tabless cell technology means that it has twice the cycle life of an equivalent EGO standard-cell battery. Together, these innovations help dealers address the barriers that have kept some professional users reliant on petrol-powered equipment.
The 8Ah BA4480X ARC Lithium MAXTM battery is available now, with additional 3Ah and 6Ah capacities planned for 2027 as EGO continues to expand the technology across its battery platform.
