Hello,

Does the sensor keep chattering or transmitting or is there a communication from the Control Panel which switches the reporting to a lower frequency thus saving
the battery power spec sheet gives greater 4 years normal usage but not sure if this covers leaving window open. Standby = 7microamp transmit 40mA a hugh difference.
