Saft LS14500 Battery: The Go-To Power Source for Your Shearwater Computer

Power your Shearwater dive computer with the manufacturer-recommended primary battery. The Saft LS14500 is a high-performance, non-rechargeable 3.6V Lithium-thionyl chloride battery, engineered to provide long-lasting, dependable power for your most critical dive instrument.

Why This Specific Battery Matters for Your Dive Computer:

This isn't a standard AA battery from the hardware store. Its advanced Li-SOCl₂ chemistry provides a stable voltage output throughout its life.

• Why this is important: This consistent power delivery is essential for the accurate performance of your Shearwater computer's complex calculations. It's the top choice for divers who prefer the grab-and-go simplicity and exceptionally long shelf life of a primary disposable battery.

Engineered for Diving and Travel:

The Saft LS14500 is built with the needs of a diver in mind.

• Incredibly Long Shelf Life: With a self-discharge rate of less than 1% per year, you can confidently keep spares in your dive bag for years, knowing they will be ready to go when you need them. This makes it a perfect "set and forget" power source.
• Extreme Temperature Performance: It's designed to operate in a massive temperature range, from -60°C to +85°C (-76°F to +185°F), ensuring dependable performance even in the most demanding cold-water dives.
• Easy to Travel With: This battery is non-restricted for most forms of transport, making it much easier to pack for air travel than many other types of lithium batteries.

Durable Construction:

The battery features a stainless steel container and end caps with a hermetic glass-to-metal seal. This provides superior resistance to atmospheric corrosion, even in humid, salty environments.

Compatibility:

This is the recommended primary battery for the Shearwater Perdix, Perdix AI, Petrel, and Predator series computers.

For a long-lasting, travel-friendly power source for your Shearwater computer, the Saft LS14500 is the perfect choice. Stock up today and never be without power!
