I used to work for Modern Alarms so I expect I'll have the paperwork for your panel and would therefore be able to tell you the battery to get.

Any chance of a picture, easily identified then.

Ok, 20yrs old, yes a new system would be good but I'm a great believer in 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it'.

If it was/is still working and you're happy with it, let's find out what the panel is and easily ID the type of battery needed.

Someone told me I was ignorant and apathetic, I don't know what that means, nor do I care.

Hi as above ADT acquired Modern alarms some time ago, they are available on 0800 7816 999 and will be able to assist.

Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.

What planet are you on?

Their version of assist will be to sell a NEW system, they won't be interested in looking at the old system or even just replacing the battery.

That's why I didn't mention *** and wrote what I did.

Your gaff your rules, but I can't see a big issue with posting contact details for a firm that the OP is seeking

I suspect they & many other firms will want more current controls
