Just make sure that your alarm is disarmed when you disconnect the battery cables. Otherwise, the siren will go off in your face (depending on the placement of the siren), because, if installed properly, your 9V battery backup (hidden inside of the dash somewhere)will still be active. This is to make sure that someone can't just pop your hood and clip your battery cables to turn your alarm off.

Only by opening the case, so it can be replaced if you are comfortable doing that. However, you would not just carry a spare battery for extra charge on a trip.

I have not had to replace the battery yet. So far all I have had to do is just recharge it via the electrical cord.

It will draw power from the car battery but the alternator will recharge it fine. Only issue would be if you recharged it a few times without running you car. Then you might have to get your car jumped!

Murphys law it happens in the middle of the night. If you always change the battery when the clocks get changed for daylights savings time this won't catch you off guard. If it's a few years old and keeps going off it may need a replacement.

If you take it in the the emission inspection station with the codes blanked, they will ask if you have changed the battery recently and ask you to come back again.

You must get the battery out of the vehicle, and order a charger based on the part number on the battery.

You will have to remove the case in order to replace the battery. The case is made from soft plastic so it slips on and off pretty easy.

This thing will eat a battery up. The instructions tell you not to use it without the car running .

I don't know. I have not had to replace battery as of yet. You might call the company. They were very helpful to me.

I personally have not replaced a battery and have not had the opportunity to do deal with that question. If you are able to open it, you should be able to see the battery and get the number or size from the existing one inside. I hope this helps, but I am not the expert, just a casual user, contact the maufacturer or go on line to e-how and pose that question and hopefully you will be able to get an answer.

If you have to recharge it more and more often, then the battery is near the end of its life.

Disassemble the case; it snaps apart. remove the old battery and insert the new one.

Car batteries are not meant to be drained down. The answer is not long. Once drained your car battery will need to be jumped. Also a car battery becomes damaged once it is drained a few times. This is also dependent on what you are powering. A cell phone charger or a hairdryer.

you will probably need a new battery. You can disengage the old battery and bring it in to any battery store and they will know what you need. You will have to pay for a new one tho since it isn't covered. New batteries are generally about $60.

Your battery that you have now will tell you. The replacement will state what it is
