[QUOTE="FunkyCatUK, post: 511232, member: 33847"] Thanks for this. Will try to test the battery under load as you suggest (the alarm has it's own fuse at the fusebox, so presumably flicking this off would be ok, rather than physically disconnecting?). It is 8 years old so might just need changing, as you say. The short wire (will have to get a bit from Ebay or something) to the panel is a good idea. Again, will try to give that a go. Will look inside the panel to make sure I know where to actually connect the sensor - presumably there's no way, without special equipment, to know which connection at the panel links to the affected room PIRs (they're not 'marked up' in any way at the panel). Your conductors suggestion seems beyond my capabilities, as I've no idea what these might look like, where they are etc. I might give it a go if I can figure out how to do this. Suggestions much appreciated. [/QUOTE]
