Our runtime is much less than Stihl’s claims however, our area mowed is much more, in the shorter time. This is 360 sq-ft more than Stihl’s numbers. Mowing for the 16m17s accomplished a little less 1/10th of an acre, 3,800 sq-ft to be exact. We’re pretty confident runtime could be extended using the side-discharge, but most homeowners are going to use the mulching option. We did have the mulching plug installed, so the mower was recycling all the clippings. During our tests, the AK30 battery in the Stihl RMA 460 lasted a total of 16-minutes and 17-seconds (16:17). Stihl claims a 44-minute runtime in their testing with this battery. The AK series batteries include an easy to read 4-bar charge status. Battery and Runtimeįor our testing, we’re using the Stihl AK30 which is a 4.8Ah battery with 187Wh output. Our zero-turn cut the grass at 5-inches, with the intention to set the Stihl RMA 460 to a 3-inch deck-height. To help ensure our testing is on level ground, we first cut the Bahia grass field with our Exmark Radius X-Series zero-turn. The Stihl RMA 460 comes with a 15.85-gallon grass catching bag, and the mower can bag, mulch, or discharge from the side. Users can adjust the cutting height to one of seven positions, ranging from 1-3/8″ to 3 -3/4″. It features 10″ rear wheels and 8″ front wheels for easy movement over rough terrain. Stihl bills the RMA 460 as a maneuverable and efficient mower geared toward the homeowner. When mowing through lighter grass, the mower automatically reduces power consumption for better battery life. Our actual testing runtimes differ greatly, but not all negatively (see below).Īdditionally, when the RMA 460 senses resistance, it automatically adjusts to peak power. On the Ak 30 battery, claims are the Stihl RMA 460 can tackle 44 minutes of runtime per charge, which works out to about 3,440 square feet. That breaks down to about 2,475 square feet. Stihl claims it can run for 29 minutes on their AK 20 battery. It has a 19″ cutting deck, which breaks down to an actual 18.1″ cutting swath. The Stihl RMA 460 has a brushless motor and works with the Stihl AK 20 and AK 30 batteries.
