    Can anybody advise where I can get a back up battery for an Astec 63DV house alarm, preferably in the Navan or surrounding area.

    Thanks

    Most alarm/electrical suppliers would have these.
    This is the one you want.

    Be careful installing that battery. The Astec systems are not the easiest.
    Power down the system completely & ensure you don't snag the battery cables between back of the PCB & the battery.

    Thanks for that. Changed battery ok but now getting sab 1 fault. Same fault did show some time ago but then disappeared and alarm was working fine apart from battery error. Assume this is a bell related error and might need professional attention?

    It may be a fault with the sab as well. Double check the connections at the panel to make sure you didn't disturb anything.

    Thanks for that. Will take a look at connections. Hopefully that's all it will be.
