The electrical trigger on your Lifeline fire system requires the highest-quality 9V battery pack. Not all 9V batteries are the same! Our research has found 9V batteries from reputable brands such as reputable brand, such as GP Ultra, Duracell, Rayovac, or Energizer and labeled 6LR61 are the best. These can be found at most hardware and big box stores or directly from us. But check the battery itself to ensure you have 6LR61 - some vendors will advertise it but supply something different.
Helpful tips to prolong battery life:
Disconnect your 9V battery between events
Bring spare(s) to the track
Replace the battery annually
Sold individually.
