accentra 8 alarm sounds after power is turned off?
I recently moved to a house with an accenta 8 installed, when I disconnected the mains for maintenance the alarm bell sounded (for about 10 mins). We tried re-setting but nothing we done at control panel worked. Any ideas? Would scare the living daylights out of me if this happened during the night!
Hello
My alarm worked yesterday morning but last night when I went to turn it on the keypad didn;t work.. There are lights on the numbers but no lights showing on the power light below.. We did turn the power off in the house yesterday to replace a socket, not sure if this had an effect..

Hello,
That will be your battery in the panel that is faulty.
Depending on the amount of detectors you have will govern what battery will be needed. Your best bet though is to go for a 12volt 7amp SLA. Slightly dearer than the others but will last a lot longer in the event of a power cut. Readily available from Maplins etc, expect to pay between £12 - £22.
