The Yale XCELPLUS Extended Life model is a high capacity battery backup for the IA-2XX series wireless alarm control panel. The Extended Life model is recommended for anyone that has 2XX series alarm and requires more hours of backup from their control panel and doesn't want to replace the battery for the next 4-5 years.

The Yale XCELPLUS Standard model are also suitable, but may only offer few hours backup in the event of a power cut, and require replacing within couple of years.

The Yale XCELPLUS Extended Life and Standard model battery are compatible only with the IA control panel. 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 your requirements, there are 2 models models available.

As with the latest Yale home alarms, NiMH batteries come as standard and are highly recommend to select the Extended Life UL Install battery. This is the only insurance approved battery offering 24hr backup

Note: We do not recommend installing NiCD as its a non-RoHS Compliant product

Features:
XCELPLUS are the only producer of Yale batteries which include a PTC resettable fuse, used to protect against over-current faults or reverse polarity insertion. All batteries can leak acid when they're depleted for long periods if gone unchecked. 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.
