Product Description
Emergency lighting is only as reliable as the battery behind it. The LIFE-PK-13 is a direct replacement battery for Streamer emergency LED drivers, including the YH11B-05WL and YH11B-05WL-55 series. When your building loses power, these drivers automatically switch to battery backup — and this 6.4V, 1500mAh LiFePO4 pack is what keeps that backup ready to go.
Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) chemistry offers real advantages over older NiCd batteries commonly found in emergency lighting:
- Longer usable lifespan with more charge cycles before replacement is needed
- Stable, consistent output so your lights perform reliably when it matters most
- No memory effect, so the battery maintains its capacity even with partial charges
Installation is straightforward — the LIFE-PK-13 connects directly to your existing Streamer driver with no modifications required. Keep your emergency lighting up to code and ready for inspection.
Frequently Asked Questions
What Streamer devices is the LIFE-PK-13 compatible with?
A: The LIFE-PK-13 is designed for use with Streamer emergency LED drivers, including the YH11B-05WL, YH11B-05WL-55, and YH11B-05WL-55 5W. It also cross-references with part number YHBAL2-1.6. If you're unsure whether your unit is compatible, the model number is typically printed on a label on the driver itself.
Is LiFePO4 a good chemistry for emergency lighting applications?
A: Yes — Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) is an excellent choice for emergency lighting. It handles repeated charge cycles well, holds its capacity over time, and doesn't suffer from the memory effect that can reduce performance in older NiCd batteries. This makes it a dependable upgrade for safety-critical applications.
How often should I replace my emergency light battery?
A: Most emergency lighting standards recommend testing batteries regularly and replacing them every 3 to 5 years, though this can vary based on usage and local code requirements. If your emergency light fails its monthly or annual test, that's a strong sign the battery needs replacing regardless of age.
Is this battery easy to install myself?
A: For most users, yes. The LIFE-PK-13 connects directly to the Streamer driver's existing wiring. As with any electrical component, it's a good idea to turn off power to the fixture before swapping the battery. If you're unsure, consult your driver's manual or a qualified electrician.
