RIPS unit can be fully charged in 15 minutes.

battery is lead-acid with no Lithium content.
The RIPS Module is a sealed, on-demand maintenance item and is NOT field re-
pairable. Replacement of the module’s battery requires replacement of the entire
RIPS Module. No regular maintenance is required.
