FAQ
You can connect any battery with the operating voltage of 4.2–10 V to the hub using 6V PSU (type A).
We recommend using zinc-air alkaline batteries for extended autonomous operation. Before connecting such a battery, remove the stickers or open the air shutoff valves. If possible, leave the battery with access to the air for up to 2 hours. This will trigger a chemical reaction inside the battery and ensure proper functioning.
Below is a list of recommended batteries with guaranteed compatibility.

Hubs can only work with one power supply: standard or alternative (6V PSU (type A), 12V PSU for Hub 2/ReX 2¹ or 12-24V PSU (type A)).
¹ Discontinued product
With 6V PSU (type A) the hub can run on an external battery for years — without being connected to the facility’s electric grid — and be ready to protect run-down or empty premises, as well as buildings under construction against burglars, vandals and unauthorized occupants.
12-24V PSU (type A) is used to connect the hub to the low-voltage network of a car, trailer, yacht or to power it from an external battery/power supply.
Replace the standard 110/230V power supply unit with the 6V PSU.
