2GIG GC2e – Battery Replacement

The 2GIG GC2e requires a special battery pack available for purchase from the manufacturer.

Note: The standard backup battery that is included with all 2GIG Control Panels does not support UL 985 installations. To comply with the secondary supply requirement in UL 985: Household Fire Warning System Units, install the 2GIG Console Battery Pack (This is a high‐capacity 2600mAh Ni‐MH replacement battery pack).
