Ammonite Battery - Accu 9

The Ammonite Battery - Accu 9 was created to be a low profile, low Wh rated and lightweight travel unit mainly for travelling divers flying to dive destinations. 

Due to the risks associated with lithium batteries, transportation is globally subject to strict rules which differ from country to country and from modality to modality. Stricter requirements apply to air freight than to sea freight or road transport. Moreover, the regulations are constantly changing.

This is the reason why Ammonite created the Ammonite Battery - Accu Type 9 with a watt-hour rating lower than 100Wh as operator approval is not required this battery pack to be carried by the passenger.

Listing is for battery only, does not include Ammonite Charger, Light Cable or Light Head.

Durability and reliability

The main section and lower lid is machined from a solid piece of Delrin®, an exceptionally rigid and durable construction thermoplastic.

The upper lid is made from hard anodised aluminium, which makes it resistant to abrasion and weather factors as well as provide increased thread strength for repeated tightening and unscrewing the cable plug.

The canister is sealed with two O-rings and equipped with an overpressure safety valve.

Small size, low weight

Ammonite Accu Type 9 is one of the smallest and lightest batteries available on the market.

Universal and safe source of power supply for all Ammonite System umbilical lights

Connecting a light source and separate battery means you can have a combination of a small headlight that produces lots of bright light with extensive burn times.

Accu Type 9 contains a lithium-ion (Li-Ion) battery pack, with a total capacity of 96Wh, completely free of the so-called lazy battery effect. The battery is protected against short-circuit and overvoltage.

As an alternative, we would recommend either the Ammonite Battery - Accu Type 10 or the Ammonite Battery - Accu Type 14 which would allow longer burn times.
