Nifty new remote lighting from Pelican Announcing the 9500 SLS Shelter Lighting System

Going through new product announcements I came across this doozy. A new Pelican Remote Lighting System for portable indoor shelter lighting for tents and other temporary shelters.

This was obviously designed with the military in mind. The upcoming (not released yet) Pelican 9500 SLS Shelter Lighting System promises to be one rugged and useful light in the field. But don’t let the ruggedized design fool you, this is going to be an amazing system for field researchers, documentarians, and any outdoor adventurer.

With Red or White light, controllable from an inline switch, the 9500 comes with three (3) heads that are chained together to a single battery power supply with a AC plug and an auxiliary 12-30 vdc outlet. Basically it can be plugged into AC, run on it’s own battery, or be powered by a secondary source (like how about another Pelican RALS unit like the 9430 or the 9460-pretty nifty).

According to our sources the 9500 SLS Shelter Lighting System gives off 2000 lumens for 70 hours on a single charge. It is unclear yet if they mean per head or for all the heads (We suspect per head looking at the limited specs we have available at this time).

Each lamp head can be controlled separately, so each part of the temporary shelter can choose to have the light on or not.

Bear in mind we just found out about this newest and latest release forthcoming in the now famous Pelican line of AALG (Advanced Area Lighting Group) RALS (Remote Area Lighting Systems) so the specs might be slightly different by the time it comes out. We have no date for release yet, but we will keep you posted.

For now learn more, see lot’s more pics, or even pre-order the 9500 Shelter Lighting System in the CoTradeCo catalog .
