The Visonic XCELPLUS Extended Life model is a high capacity battery backup for the original PowerMax wireless alarm control panel. The Extended Life model is recommended for anyone that requires more hours of backup from their control panel and doesn't want to replace the battery for the next 5-6 years, offering excellent value versus the standard 1300mAh.

The Visonic XCELPLUS Standard model is also suitable for the PowerMax alarm, but may only offer 4-5 hours backup in the event of a power cut, and require replacing within 2-3 years.

The XCELPLUS Extended Life is the highest capacity battery available on the market and unlike budget consumer batteries, it's produced using the highest quality industrial, nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) batteries.

Variations:
Depending on the requirements of your system and the country or origin, your installer may have installed 1 of 2 different specifications of backup battery. The most common is the UL Install 2200mA 6 cell pack. Other models found on earlier system are the 1300mA and the lesser 650mA.

Visonic recommend the Extended Life UL Install battery. This is the only insurance approved battery offering 24hr backup

Note: We do not recommend placing a lower rated battery into a system without seeking advise from a qualified alarms installer.

Features:
XCELPLUS are the only producer of Visonic batteries which include a PTC resettable fuse, used to protect against overcurrent faults or reverse polarity insertion. All batteries can leak acid when they're depleted for long periods if gone un-checked. PTC resettable fuses prevent further damage to the control panel from short-circuit faults caused by battery acid. As of 2014 all batteries sold by XCELPLUS now feature this vital protection.
