Hello, They communicate wirelessly to the main panel and they plug into an outlet for power. No battery. Thanks! www.FortressSecurityStore.com

No. The sensors are part of the safety circuit. Could they be jumped out, yes if you knew what the resistance was telling the opener everything is ok.

The window sensors only work when someone tries to open the window. Some systems also have 'glass breaker' detectors if someone tries to break the glass, but I don't like those as any vibration can cause them to trigger.

Remote sensor takes batteries, but they last a long time. Unit is very accurate.

The last time I researched the dual alarms were not available in battery operation. They are only made to be hard wired because the dual capability needs more power than batteries can provide. The battery operated ones that I bought are VERY sensitive and work VERY well on all 3 floors of our home.

No. They are wireless receivers and can operate off of batteries or can be plugged in to an outlet. I have mine on my patio and the wireless through my TV in the house and they work awesome!

The glass break sensor itself doesn't make a sound. It activates an alarm on the system when triggered just as opening a door does if the system is armed.

these will trigger/signal only the kidde smoke detectors wireless or wired/battery backup of this series of detectors. i have changed all my wired/battery backup detectors on my second floor to kidde and changed all my existing battery detectors to kidde on my first floor, they all alarm if any of them goes off. one word of advise don't install any detectors close or adjacent to the oven because if you are broiling and you have a breeze blowing it will set off all/every one of the smoke detectors an all floors.

The batteries are included. It is not necessary to hard wire into the room you are monitoring. There are removable self adhesive strips that can mount the device to most surfaces. Ideal for RV, Campers, Boats, Planes, Foreign Hotels, etc. Let's hope you don't need the detector, and be glad that you had it!

Installed ours about 6 months ago and it works great! It is battery powered (3-AA batteries) and I assume the sensors must be a circuit board inside the case. Hope this helps.

Hi, No, they have to be plugged in to light up and then unplugged to shut-down. I wish they did have a light sensor switch. On the other hand, it would be something else that could go wrong and prevent the system from lighting up if it malfunctioned.

All the components included with the system are wireless battery-powered devices (each device is a "zone", not sure off top of head if remote controls / extra keypad use up a zone), however the control panel has the ability to have up to 8 hard-wired (non-battery / non-wireless) two-wire sensors ran to it and monitored. There is a wireless add-on item available and compatible with the system that detects glass breakage - use your favorite search engine with "Shield Tech Security" and part number "STS4-GLSS" to locate it - however it needs a power supply wherever it is installed unlike the sensors included in this package.

The ones in our house are hard wired but it needs a battery back up in case the electricity goes out - so I guess I can't honestly answer that question!!! Sorry.

No they do not, but the batteries will last for several months. I access them several times a day checking on my property and they last around 5 months without any problem. If you leave them on all the time the batteries won't last near as long.

Can't tell you. Recovering from hip surgery, upstairs, batteries are downstairs. I do know this is a bargain, batteries are fresh, and last a very long time in motion sensor lights. Hope this helps!

Yes there is. The alarm goes off if there is any sort of break in the wire.

Yes they are, need to remove the plastic strip to activate the batteries. Happy with mine works great.
