Woosh Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 I personally would not recommend this what about a larger standby battery is the alarm monitored? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, If you know what your doing, and only if you know what your doing. a 66Ah car battery, trickle charged by the panel should run a domestic alarm, assuming 1/2 an amp idling current for about 5 or 6 days. How long are your power cuts ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magpye Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 yes its monited Ok, but why are you thinking of doing this? & What sort of monitoring? Please Someone told me I was ignorant and apathetic, I don't know what that means, nor do I care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, you would need a change over relay for a start. You cannot have two charging supplies on one battery. If it is that isolated, how does the phone line stand up, or is it GSM?
