Accenta G3 Alarm Battery

looks like the rechargeable battery has gone.

According to the manual it requires 12V up to 7Ah

Seen numerous batteries on Amazon, contacted a few companies asking if the battery is compatible, but they don't want to tell me

Any help much appreciated

    I can't say for definite but on a few systems where I've replaced batteries, a regular 12v sealed battery like this is normally fine. Just check the dimensions are ok for your enclosure.

    You best bet is to open the panel and get the ratings and dimensions of the existing battery, they're standard sizes. Obviously watch out for the mains supply inside and you should isolate before opening.

    That's the correct one for the Accent G3 (I have the same alarm) although I would go for a known make such as YUASA NP2.1 – 12.

    Yucel is a Yuasa brand.

    I agree ... that’s the right one. Very easy to swap. Ours seems to last 5 years.
