Valid point. The bell box stops ringing when the power comes back. Then it’s just armed so it’s no different to having it on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sixwheeledbeast Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 The noise is made by power from somewhere when you have no mains. Would expect one battery inside and one outside in the bell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah so the problem is probably with the internal battery then because when there’s a power cut the screen just goes dead and the panel buttons don’t work. Pretty sure the outside battery works just fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Replacing the internal battery wont fully fix it, you probably need a new panel too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
