The optional battery backup will allow the guardian alert 911 product to operate during a power outage until the power comes back on, or up to 24 hours, whichever comes first.

I have been an excellent buyer from Amazon
Purchased this product; but did not open the box until 2016 (I was very ill and in and out of the hospital); machine not compatible with neck monitor; I have been an excellent buyer from Amazon; but I need to replace the set - I believe I paid $199.76 for this product. I rrespectfully request a refund for this purchase. I do not have the original box but I have what I received and its ready to ship back to you for full refund. This is not what I wanted. I have a new unit through Walmart where I pay each month and very satisfied with it and it does not tie up my phone line. I didn't realize that your system does. And I needed a local system. I look forward to my total refund on this expensive set.

It's powered by six rechargeable batteries.
This is basically a little plastic box that holds and recharges six NiMH (rechargeable) batteries. It goes between the 911 alert phone and the phone's power cord. It does not let you plug any other devices in for battery backup. The NiMH batteries will need to be replaced about every two years. For about the same price or a little more, you can get a real UPS (uninterruptible power supply) that has its own power cord and allows you to plug in multiple devices such as a computer. This unit is small and compact, which is good, but it does seem to be overpriced.

No More Worries Leaving my Husband at Home
My husband has had several falls being older than myself and having health issues. I take care of him and do not leave him for long. I was at synagogue when he had a fall. Luckily he was able to crawl to a phone and dial 911. After this episode I knew that we had to get something for him to have on him 24/7. This product was the answer. It works perfectly!! He is able to punch a button and it calls 911. No monthly charges!!! Thank you for offering such a great product!!! Now, I am able to leave the house with PEACE OF MIND.

I've never had to use but adds peace of mind
because the power does go out sometimes during the many storms we have, It's ready to go just in case.
