licaiwang Posted April 20, 2016 Author Share Posted April 20, 2016 so if the battery voltage is low, is it possible to cause it off?

PeterJames Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 If it has been like this for a while it may have damaged the charging circuit, what is the voltage on the leads without the battery connected Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/40023-false-alarms-on-optima-xl6/page/2/#findComment-445018 Share on other sites More sharing options...

No put new one in, they are cheap to an extent Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/40023-false-alarms-on-optima-xl6/page/2/#findComment-445021 Share on other sites More sharing options...
secureiam Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 probably the battery, but running it so low can damage the panel. just run without the battery connected and does it still false alarm? I suspect not. Then replace the battery and see what happens, if it messes up again then replace the panel.

PeterJames Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 From that description it could be many things my guess would be that the charging circuit did get damaged from the earlier problem, I would lay money that your new battery is not charging. check the voltage Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/40023-false-alarms-on-optima-xl6/page/2/#findComment-447097 Share on other sites More sharing options...
