What's the battery life on these? null

Hi Chris, thank you for your question. Battery life will vary depending on the model and installation environment, but here are the specifics: For the battery-powered SC5, the expected battery life is approximately 4 years under normal conditions, assuming there are no frequent alarms. This model uses six Duracell or Energizer 123 lithium batteries, which should be replaced when the device signals low battery or after the 4-year mark. For the hardwired SC5, the battery serves as a backup power source in the event of a power outage. Under typical conditions, where AC power remains consistent, the backup battery is designed to last the life of the product and generally does not require replacement during that time.— Charlie
