Product Description
When critical equipment can't afford a power interruption, you need a battery that's built for the long haul. The COMP-LS14500-WL is a 3.6V AA-size lithium battery and a direct replacement for the SAFT LS14500 and LS-14500, complete with 6-inch wire leads for straightforward hardwiring into your equipment.
Steady Power When It Matters Most
This battery uses lithium thionyl chloride chemistry, a trusted standard in industrial power. With a 2,600 mAh capacity, it delivers consistent voltage from the first day of use to the last — no unexpected drops, no guessing when to replace it. That flat, stable discharge curve is exactly what PLCs, memory backup modules, and utility meters need to function reliably.
A Shelf Life That Works on Your Schedule
The COMP-LS14500-WL can be stored for up to 10 years and still perform when called upon. That makes it a smart choice for backup power applications, emergency systems, or any device that may sit dormant for extended periods. Stock up with confidence.
Handles Extreme Conditions
From cold storage facilities to sun-baked utility cabinets, this battery operates reliably across a temperature range of -76°F to +185°F. Where standard alkaline or lithium-ion cells would struggle or fail entirely, the COMP-LS14500-WL keeps going.
Ready to Wire In
The 6-inch wire leads allow for direct connection to your device's internal wiring — no battery holder or contact clips required. This is a common need in industrial equipment where a snap-in cell simply isn't an option. Common applications include:
- Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs)
- Utility and water meters
- Memory backup systems
- Industrial sensors and transmitters
- Alarm and security panels
Whether you're servicing existing equipment or setting up something new, the COMP-LS14500-WL delivers the long-term dependability that industrial applications demand — all in a familiar AA footprint.
Frequently Asked Questions
What devices is the COMP-LS14500-WL compatible with?
A: This battery is a direct replacement for the SAFT LS14500 and LS-14500. It is commonly used in programmable logic controllers (PLCs), utility meters, memory backup modules, industrial sensors, and alarm systems that require a 3.6V AA-size lithium cell with wire leads.
How is this different from a standard AA battery?
A: A standard alkaline AA battery outputs 1.5V. The COMP-LS14500-WL outputs 3.6V using lithium thionyl chloride chemistry, which also provides a much longer shelf life, a wider operating temperature range, and a more stable voltage throughout discharge. It is designed for industrial equipment — not consumer electronics.
Can this battery be recharged?
A: No. The COMP-LS14500-WL is a primary (non-rechargeable) lithium battery. Attempting to recharge it could damage the battery or equipment and poses a safety risk.
Why does this battery have wire leads instead of standard terminals?
A: Many industrial devices are designed for direct wire connections rather than battery contacts or holders. The 6-inch wire leads allow the battery to be securely wired into the device, providing a more reliable connection in environments subject to vibration, temperature swings, or long-term deployment.
