The battery is fine for years.
Not all buildings have somewhere difficult to get to.


Handy for a can of foam, then?


When chubb fitted real bells they had a special box specifically made to
stop expanding foam from getting in. They were the triangular ones. I
won't comment on what they did as they may still use them for all I know.
