With blow forces of between 17N and 21N, comfortable harnesses, easy to access intuitive keypads and zero direct emissions, they are ideal for use in areas that require low noise levels such as schools, residential neighbourhoods, hospital grounds, hotels and public parks - helping keep things as quiet and comfortable for the operator and those around them.
Not sure which model is best for your needs? Here’s everything you need to know about the Husqvarna 340iBT and the 550iBTX Battery Backpack Blowers.
340iBT - Professional Power & Performance
Featuring not one, but two battery slots, the 340iBT Battery Backpack Blower from Husqvarna is the perfect choice for landscaping professionals who need ongoing power and performance when on the job and away from power outlets.

The specially designed backpack harness distributes weight across the back for a more comfortable user experience; especially for repetitive and long-lasting cleaning tasks. Boost mode gives you fast acceleration exactly when you need it most, helping you maximise battery runtime in less demanding situations.
Another addition greenspace professionals and landscapers will appreciate is the intuitive keypad located on the blower handle. With easy reach and access, you can view the battery's current power levels, engage cruise control, activate boost mode and start and stop your blower with a quick tap.
As the 340iBT is powered by Li-ion batteries, you can safely get to work in noise-sensitive areas. With reduced noise output, fewer vibrations and zero exhaust emissions, it provides maximum power and maneuverability for everyday garden cleaning tasks. Features of the 340iBT

Redefining Battery Power for Professionals
Both the 340iBT and the 550iBTX have been designed with ongoing power in mind. When looking at the 340iBT, dual battery slots give you twice the power as a standard single slot. Boosting runtime, the individual interchangeable batteries and auto-switch function ensure you have all of the power you need to work through the day without interruption.
With the 550iBTX, the large BLi950X battery brings long-lasting power to the forefront. The addition of an ergonomic harness that reduces load ensures that your workday is as comfortable as possible. The high torque to weight ratio brushless motor reduces noise while increasing reliability and efficiency.
The addition of Boost Mode lets you ramp up power and speed when you need it the most, helping you clear dense and large areas of leaves and organic matter in no time at all. Once you’ve cleared the bulk, switch back down to Cruise Mode to get more out of your battery throughout the day.
