Saft BA-5800A/U Battery for GPS and Government Applications

Saft BA-5800A/U Battery 5.8V

The Saft BA-5800A/U is a military-style battery used in select GPS and field electronic applications where dependable power and correct-fit replacements matter. If your existing battery label shows BA-5800A/U, this is the direct like-for-like model designation to match.

Because “BA-” batteries can be deployed across multiple devices and sometimes have configuration differences (fit, connector style, and device-specific requirements), the safest way to confirm compatibility is to match the exact part number on your old battery and verify the device make/model.

BatteryPlex can help you confirm the correct replacement quickly—share your device model and a photo of the original battery label to prevent ordering the wrong battery.

How to confirm you have the right battery (fast checklist):

1. Match the label: confirm your old battery reads BA-5800A/U exactly.
