Another post here brought to mind something I consider every so often. I am attempting to make this work by a "Poll" function. Hope it comes out right.
Many here I believe possess an above average level of knowledge regarding security systems and electronics. I am curious to know what is your perception - a best guess with no case studies, testing or anything else - of how long an alarm backup battery will keep a panel powered sufficient to sound an alarm and be able to report trouble to the monitoring service.
For fun, lets say the system is an Elk M1G with 2 zone expanders, a wireless expander and 3 keypads.
