Powersounder batteries on the way out. Disconnect & remove as they have been known to self-combust with dire consequences http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1220198611

its your power sounder telling you its batteries are low, very hard to change the them unless you are electronically minded, two options
1-- get a new unit
2-- disconnect and take out- they have been known to self combust  :(

Pretty sure they are designed as a sealed unit. New ones are about 50 quid.  :y

Send it to the local council tip, by the time they have crushed it, it will fall apart ;D


Buy a replacement, or leave without one ;)

Fitted the batteries and refitted the sounder, tested by disconnecting it again and lots of bleeping  ;D, refitted and all is well. I got the batteries form RS components but Im sure Maplins will do them as well. :y
