I wil be going on vacation and will have my car parked at my residence for two weeks. I'm concernced about the car alarm as I dont want the alarm to go off while I'm away. Since the car will be parked in my driveway for two weeks, will the battery drain and cause the alarm to go off?

Hi cfrancisco71,

If the battery condition is very good, then it should last the 2 weeks. If it drains, it would not activate the alarm until you try to open the door when you are unable to disarm it due to the weak battery.
