The Pelican 9460 Remote Area Light is a heavy-duty Remote Area Lighting System (RALS) designed to replace generator-powered lighting with a portable, battery-powered alternative that’s quieter, cleaner, and easier to use. It’s built primarily for professional, industrial, emergency, and field applications rather than general household use.
Key Features :
-
🔆 High Output: Up to 12,000 lumens (about 6,000 lumens per each of the two LED light heads) for bright area lighting.
-
📏 Telescoping Masts: Two adjustable LED heads mounted on telescoping masts that extend to about 6 ft tall.
-
🔋 Battery & Power: Runs on a rechargeable sealed lead-acid (SLA) battery, with an intelligent control system showing battery life and allowing selection of light intensity or preset power levels; can also operate while plugged into wall power.
-
📱 Control & Ports: Some configurations support remote activation (via Bluetooth) and include a 12 V power port + dual USB for charging accessories.
-
🏃 Portable Design: Housed in a rugged Pelican case with wheels and a pull handle for easier transport across job sites.
