- Made in the USA. Why it matters:
- Superior craftsmanship; rigorously tested; high-quality parts.
- Compatible with AN/PVS-4, AN/PVS-7, D-441/USNV-441 series, and ATN Night Star night vision devices — 3V Li-SO2 cell engineered for the power requirements of fielded military night vision optics and goggles (confirm full compatibility list with vendor).
- Extreme cold-weather rating: -60°C to +71°C (-76°F to +160°F) — the broadest low-temperature tolerance in this battery family, maintaining stable output in arctic and high-altitude night operations where thermal imaging and night vision are most critical.
- 6-year shelf life with ultra-low self-discharge — suitable for depot storage and pre-positioned equipment; note shelf life is 6 years, shorter than Li-MnO2 alternatives, which should be factored into stockpile rotation planning.
- Compact cylindrical form factor with pressure-type contacts — 1.03" diameter × 0.70" tall with dual pressure-type end contacts for direct installation with no tools or adapters required.
- Four NSNs supported; Assembled in the USA — requisition under NSN 6135-01-507-1135 or legacy NSNs 6135-01-447-5082, 6135-01-090-5365, and 6135-01-090-5363 through DLA supply channels.
Product Description
Higher-Performance Alternative Available
The Ultralife BA-5367/U delivers up to 60% more run time than this battery and carries a 10-year shelf life — under the same NSN (6135-01-507-1135). If your procurement allows substitution, the BA-5367/U is a drop-in upgrade with no equipment modification required.
Saft BA-5567A/U Military Night Vision Battery
The BA-5567A/U is a primary (non-rechargeable) Lithium Sulfur Dioxide (Li-SO2) cell manufactured by Saft for use in military night vision devices and compatible optical systems. Assembled in the USA, it delivers stable 3V output across an extreme temperature range — including the lowest cold-weather rating in this battery catalog — making it well-suited for night operations in arctic, mountain, and high-altitude environments.
Compatible Night Vision Systems
The BA-5567A/U is compatible with a range of fielded military and commercial night vision platforms, including:
- Night vision goggles: AN/PVS-7
- Night vision weapon sight: AN/PVS-4
- Night vision scopes: D-441, USNV-441 series (ITT, ATN, Morovision, Aimshot variants)
- Commercial night vision: ATN Night Star Scope
It is a direct replacement for all BA-5567 and BA-5567/U part number variants. Consult your equipment's technical manual to confirm battery position and quantity required for your specific device configuration.
Built for Night Operations in Extreme Conditions
The BA-5567A/U carries the broadest cold-weather rating in this battery catalog: -60°C to +71°C. Stable voltage output across this range ensures consistent night vision performance from the first activation — no warm-up lag, no voltage sag that could degrade image intensifier performance during critical operations.
Shelf Life and Storage Planning
The BA-5567A/U has a 6-year shelf life under proper storage conditions — shorter than the 10-year shelf life of Li-MnO2 alternatives in this catalog. Procurement officers and depot managers should factor this into stockpile rotation schedules to ensure operational readiness.

Frequently Asked Questions
What night vision devices use the BA-5567A/U battery?
The BA-5567A/U is compatible with the AN/PVS-7 night vision goggle, AN/PVS-4 night vision weapon sight, D-441 and USNV-441 series night vision scopes (including variants from ITT, ATN, Morovision, and Aimshot), and the ATN Night Star Scope. Consult your device's technical manual to confirm battery type and quantity for your specific configuration.
What is the D-441 / USNV-441 battery type?
The D-441 and USNV-441 night vision scopes use the BA-5567A/U (or BA-5567/U) — a 3V primary lithium cell. This battery is non-rechargeable and must be replaced once depleted.
Is there a rechargeable version of this battery?
No direct rechargeable equivalent exists for the BA-5567A/U in the same form factor. If your night vision device supports rechargeable battery options, consult the manufacturer's documentation for approved alternatives. This listing is for the primary (non-rechargeable) BA-5567A/U only.
Why does this battery have a 6-year shelf life instead of 10?
The BA-5567A/U uses Lithium Sulfur Dioxide (Li-SO2) chemistry, which has a shorter shelf life than the Lithium Manganese Dioxide (Li-MnO2) chemistry used in other batteries in this catalog. Plan stockpile rotation accordingly to maintain readiness.
What NSNs can be used to requisition this battery?
The current NSN is 6135-01-507-1135. Legacy NSNs that may appear in older TMs or supply records include 6135-01-447-5082, 6135-01-090-5365, and 6135-01-090-5363. All reference the BA-5567A/U battery family.
What part numbers does this battery replace?
This battery covers all variants in the BA-5567 family: BA-5567, BA-5567/U, BA-5567A/U, BA-5567U, BA5567, BA5567/U, and BA5567U. It is also cross-referenced against part number 205129-001.
How should this battery be stored?
Store in a cool, dry location away from heat sources and direct sunlight. The Li-SO2 chemistry supports a 6-year shelf life under proper storage conditions. Keep terminals protected from conductive materials and follow applicable handling protocols for Li-SO2 cells, which may vent sulfur dioxide gas if damaged or improperly handled.
