    Much appreciated :D
    UTC are insisting only phonewatch can supply them .
    It's a small 6v battery pack ( like Visonics)

    Don't get mixed up with Visonic, they are 7.2 .

    If this is the same battery I think it is try Maplin. Not cheap but may have the one you need.

    Post a picture of the battery next to a ruller and I may be able to comfirm.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,717 ✭✭✭✭altor


    No, it is a 6V battery for the Simon, Maplin do not stock this battery. They do stock the 12V battery needed for most alarms. From memory they are about €45 from them.

    Did you get the pack with AA batteries enclosed in plastic ? Should have a power clip coming from it .
