Battery Replacement for Peli RALS 9430, 9480, 9490

The Peli RALS 9430, 9480, and 9490 are professional-grade remote area lighting systems used in emergency response, disaster recovery, and critical infrastructure maintenance. After years of intensive use, battery capacity naturally degrades — but replacing the battery costs a fraction of a new Powerpack. This service replaces your worn cell with a genuine Peli OEM battery, restoring full run-time and performance without the cost of a complete unit replacement.

To use this service: purchase it here, then ship your RALS unit to our service centre. We handle the battery swap with original Peli parts and return the unit fully tested. Two-way shipping label available — see How the Service Works below.

Genuine Peli OEM Battery — Not a Generic Substitute

Peli RALS systems run on proprietary lithium-ion packs engineered to precise voltage, capacity, and thermal management specifications. Generic third-party batteries often fail to deliver the rated lumen output or the emergency run-time your mission requires. The battery used in this service is a genuine Peli OEM cell — part number 009433-3047-000 — sourced through the authorised Peli distributor network.

Using an original Peli battery also preserves the unit's overcharge protection, thermal cutoff, and LED driver calibration. A mismatched cell can stress the power converter and shorten the service life of the LED module itself — an expensive component to replace. Original parts protect your investment in a Peli RALS system that can otherwise last well over a decade.

Compatible Peli RALS Models

This battery replacement service covers the following Peli remote area lighting systems:

• Peli 9430 RALS — compact self-contained unit with integrated battery
• Peli 9480 Powerpack — large-format Powerpack, internal battery cell replacement
• Peli 9490 Powerpack — extended-runtime Powerpack, internal battery cell replacement

If you are unsure which model you have, check the label on the base of the unit — the model and serial number are printed there. If you have a different Peli RALS model, contact us before ordering to confirm compatibility.

Why Replace the Battery — Not the Entire Powerpack?

A complete Peli 9480 or 9490 Powerpack costs several hundred euros. The battery replacement service is a fraction of that cost — and in most cases the battery is the only component that has aged. The LED module, housing, electronics, and mechanics of a well-maintained RALS unit are built to last well beyond a decade of professional use.

A successful battery replacement restores:

• Full rated run-time on a single charge
• Stable voltage supply for consistent maximum lumen output
• Full compatibility with the original Peli charger
• Warranty coverage on the replaced cell
