How many amps does it take to power this siren. 1 amp ?

These small alarm horns draw practically nothing. They operate on 12 volts DC and can be fed from your alarm panel with #22 alarm wire. As far as amperage draw goes, I wouldn't even concern myself about it it's so small an amount.Hope this helps.R

You could use an SW-433 and plug in a 12VDC at about 1.5 Amps power supply that would run a regular security siren.And you could run the 12 VDC 2 conductor wire out side to the siren. ( and keep the 120VAC inside the house).I actually have a 12 VDC power supply turned on when triggered by a alarm signal. The alarm signal goes to a relay board that turns on the 120 VAC to the 12VDC power supply and the 2 sirens are powered by it. Takes a load off the alarm board.

8.4 amps at 12 volts http://www.xylemflowcontrol.com/marine-and-rv/bilge/rule-electric-submersible-pumps/rule-2000.htm

No more than five amps. I use it with a 12v remote jumper battery without a problem.

1 Amp. I would not buy this item if you plan to use it more than once. I kept it well ventilated and ran it under the usage rating but it still quit working after a month. Waste of money, spend a little more and get something better.

Extra wiring. It only has a few inches of wire and isn't enough to connect to your sirens amp. I rewired it with 8 gauge wire just to have a better sound quality. Speaker is loud but recommend 2 of them for use on emergency vehicle

yes. you can wire it directly to a 12 volt source and switch. Sounds like the cops are coming. Great siren.

From what I know there is an output for a relay on the 5200. You could use the relay to operate the siren but it would need its own power supply.

My outdoor siren is out in the garage about 75" away. All I had to do was plug it into a wall socket and when the main panel detects a problem it will communicate with the siren and set it off. No hard wire needed. Hope this is helpful.

Very low. I believe it was less than 1.0 amp. Like 0.6 when I did the math but on the safe side it was 1.6 at the very most. My memory is failing me at the moment but im pretty sure it was less than 1.0 amp. Hope this helps

It's only one type of siren, actually my grandson calls it woo, woo, woo. But for the price, I'm sure glad I bought it, I also bought the firetruck and ambulance. Very satisfied.

You would need to connect it to a compatible alarm control panel. The alarm panel provides the control signal and power to the siren.

I think your asking if the siren will work with a 700ma (milliamp or .7amp ) the answer is no. The siren requires at least 1 amp and would prefer 1.2 amps at 12 volts. This siren is really loud and will get others folks attention..

I don't know how many amps, however, it is more powerful than others that I have used. It still isn't quite as powerful as I would like, but better than most.

Amps I have no idea... I do know that it is very powerful, amazing in fact. I have "shag" area rugs & it works wonderfully on them.

2 modes: 7 amps (.84kW) and 12 amps (1.4kW). In an hour, those are .84kWh and 1.4kWh respectively
