Powering With a Backup Battery
Ensure your Konnected Alarm Panel stays alive during power interruptions with the Konnected Backup Battery—the mini‑UPS designed for Konnected Alarm Panel systems.
What Is the Konnected Backup Battery?
-
A 7800 mAh Li‑ion mini‑UPS that plugs directly into your 12 V power adapter line to provide uninterrupted power during outages. It can power a Konnected Alarm Panel for up to 12 hours under ideal conditions.
-
Features include auto-switching to battery when AC power is lost, dual outputs (12 V DC at up to 2.5 A and 5 V USB at up to 3 A), overcurrent protection, wall-mounting capability, and compatibility with many devices like routers, hubs, Raspberry Pi, and USB gadgets.
-
Includes a DC male-to-male cable, a mounting screw, and a quick-start guide. Requires a 12 V DC power adapter (not included)—you can use the adapter from your Konnected kit.
How to Connect It Inline with Your Konnected Alarm Panel
-
Disconnect the power to your Konnected panel by unplugging the adapter from the wall outlet.
-
Plug your 12 V power adapter into the Backup Battery’s input port.
-
Connect the Backup Battery’s 12 V output to the Konnected panel’s DC jack using the included male-to-male cable.
-
Wall-mount the battery if desired—hardware is included.
-
Plug the power adapter back into the wall. The battery will charge and remain ready to take over seamlessly if the power fails.
Auto-switching Feature and Minimum Load
The Backup Battery automatically switches on and delivers power when a load is detected. This auto‑load detection circuit requires at least ~30 mA draw to remain active. If your connected accessory draws very little power, it may make the backup battery turn off.
