The new system represents a significant upgrade to previous RALS models, improving both illumination and operational efficiency. With its rechargeable battery, the 9730 RALS eliminates the need for fuel-powered generators, making it a cleaner, quieter and more cost-effective choice. This transition helps reduce emissions, minimise downtime and improve safety on-site.
 
Engineered for industrial, emergency, law enforcement and military use, the 9730 RALS provides reliable, portable lighting for temporary work areas, command posts and inspections. Its removable light head allows multiple setups, including tripod mounting for wider coverage. The rear-facing puddle light improves ground visibility, reducing trip risks in dark environments. Compact and weighing 8.3 kg, the 9730 is easy to transport and deploy, with an IP-rated waterproof build for durability in harsh conditions.
 
Compared to earlier models, the 9730 RALS offers a 1,500-lumen boost and 18+ hours of runtime, while reducing weight by nearly 20%. It is RoHS and CE certified, reflecting Peli’s commitment to product safety, environmental compliance and long-term reliability.
