The Solar Battery Lite for Gateway (RAK9154) is a compact, outdoor-rated backup power solution designed to keep WisGate Edge Pro and other LoRaWAN® gateways running through short-term power interruptions.
 
With its 12 V stable output, it keeps your IoT infrastructure running smoothly during grid dips or fluctuations — ensuring uninterrupted connectivity even in remote locations. Built with weatherproof, durable construction, it continues to charge and supply power rain or shine, making it ideal for outdoor and semi-exposed environments.
 
Using the included 10 W solar panel, the RAK9154 captures and stores energy in a 56.16 Wh (watt-hours) lithium battery, delivering a reliable, regulated supply to your gateway. With approximately 90 % energy efficiency, it can sustain a typical WisGate for around 10.5 hours under moderate load — long enough to bridge most short brownouts, maintenance cycles, or brief outages.
 
Installation is quick and straightforward, with the supplied mounting kit, connection cable, and steel straps for secure pole attachment. Once deployed, system status and battery health can be monitored via WisGateOS 2 or the WisDM remote management platform, providing real-time visibility and peace of mind.
 
Environmentally friendly and maintenance-light, this solar-powered, compact, and reliable solution helps protect critical IoT infrastructure where downtime must be avoided.
