    Not going to be much good. What are you protecting?

    A battery operated system will also need mains power to operate the control panel. If you look at the supplies list here you can ring and get prices for wire free systems on the market. I would stay away from the likes of systems you get in b&q and co. Not worth the money and they dont have any standards to conform too when making this system.

    I get the impression the OP is looking for some sort of standalone battery only unit.
    If its a normal wireless unit then as Altor says mains would still be required.
    Visonic Powermax might suit. What budget do you have in mind?
