Just like the title says. Any of you guys or gals got any recommendations on a good back up battery?

 

DEI 520T

 

That is if you toss the battery that comes with it in the trash and buy a better lead acid replacement.

 

The battery that comes with the back up battery is horrible? What is a better lead acid replacement then?

 

They have always worked for me just fine. What's your recommendation then?

 

The problem is they are inconsistant and always have been for as long as I can remember. They also dont have much capacity. Go pick up a 12V lead acid battery for house alarms or ups back up from frys or some place similiar.

Something like this http://www.frys.com/product/3002479

The more amp hours (Ah) the more alarm accesories you can supply power to and for longer. The quality of battery will be far superior.

 

good to know. I might go check this out

 

Do check it out. I am still finishing up my test with a couple of aftermarket batteries. I have a thread that i started about this.

 

I agree. I went with the DEI 520T from the get go but the battery that came with it wouldn't even hold a charge. I went to Radio Shack and bought a bigger lead acid battery and never looked back.

 

Did you have to do anything different or just rewired it?

thanks
