Sprucey Posted January 26, 2015 Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 12v alarm panel Batteries are good, not sure on the amh mine is, but lasted all day on the flapper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_b_wales Posted January 27, 2015 Report Share Posted January 27, 2015 I use 12v/7amp hr batteries for my flappers and rota. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosd Posted January 27, 2015 Report Share Posted January 27, 2015 What Fenboy said. I used to use a 1.2amp on my Turboflapper and with an intermittent timer that would last all day, but I found it a little slow. A 2.6amp battery would be perfect and lightweight as said.....

superspark Posted January 27, 2015 Report Share Posted January 27, 2015 I have a 12v 10amp battery for my flapper. I also have a small 12v 40amp car battery with handle witch I power my magnet "on long lead" and the flapper at the same time. This is great if you have a truck to get all your kit where you want it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
