Default Installed new battery backup for home alarm

, Opera's revolutionary e-mail client: http://www.opera.com/m2/

hi there,
i must agree with the person who said that putting batteries of this type

in
parrallel is not a good thing for the stated reasons. however the internal
charger in the alarm panel will be a constant voltage type with current
limiting, designed to float charge the battery, this means that the

current
will reduce to a small float level (trickle) when the battery has fully
charged. so i would say disconnect the small battery and the large one

will
be ok (just take longer to attain the full, float charge voltage so the
charger will be putting out its max current for longer)
regards
bob


********. The PSU is simply not capable of charging this capacity and it
should be disconnected NOW.
