Thank you! I was a little nervous about changing this because of the warnings on the battery about the risk of fire or explosion… and even when I called my alarm company, the tech said to “be careful that the wires don’t touch, and that you hook up the red to red and the black to black.” Your video put me at ease that I could do this, and it was fast and easy! Thanks!

❤ LOVE YOU!! Thank you so much for making the video. I'm a single woman and hate being taken advantage of. When I find out that there is something I should and could have done myself and it cost me $100, I get irked. So I thought I would start researching to see if there was someone online that would show me how this thing gets changed. I was confident it was simple but would still feel way more confident once I saw someone else. :) So thanks again for taking the time to make this video. Now off to purchase my new battery. I'm not buying from ADT either for a 300% mark up!

Yes, ADT will charge you a service call plus a premium on the battery when you can purchase them on Amazon how much cheaper it’s not too hard to do. It’s really just two terminals that you have to smash in there. You can do it yourself and save money way to go. Thank you for watching the video.

@@TomLeeman - U r absolutely right! I tried to get ADT to do it and they wanted an arm and a leg. They sent me your video. I stopped by Home Depot. While locating the battery, I watched your video. Immediately laughed and understood why they said I can do it myself. Bought the battery. Took it home. Popped it in. Back in business. The unfortunate part is that the battery signal indicating that I had a problem went away. I wished I could have tested the battery to finalize that it really needed to be replaced. Oh well....what's done is done now and it is what it is ... Sooooo....I said all of that to say....I replaced the battery and thanks again. It was easy to replace and so far so good. 😁

Did you turn the power off first? Also, do you have to put it in test mode? When I spoke to ADT they told me I needed to put it in test mode or they would send police to my house when it's disconnected. Thanks for the video. Have been a little nervous about switching it out. My battery came yesterday and instructions said I need special tools and electrical tape.

hi, i have adt galaxy series alarm panel. My contract is over and I don't want to give any money. For him to call me in case of any situation where I will connect an automatic dialer. my question is, is there an alarm tamper detection status when the water panel is on? I do not have an engineer password, only the password I used for the login and logout given to me. I wonder if this password will solve the name?

So what I gather from your question is that you wanna use the alarm system without it being connected to ADT so to Waze they connected one is with their own radio frequencies and the other is through a hard line I believe that you could possibly get it to work but it would be hard because it’s proprietary your best bet would be by one of the new systems that are much cheaper good luck thanks for watching
