You have to buy two battery, one for the remote and the beaper. It’s connected by a phone cord to the remote. Just feels cheap imo. Not sure if the others are better but ack elt feels like something made in China. Sorry guys but just seems cheap and poorly made.
Agreed, I have the ACK-04 too. I takes 3 batteries to do what the main battery does with the Artex-345. My remote switch "10 year" battery died after 5 years. I have had one false activation. The phone extension cable got upgraded with a shielded cable to reduce the possibility of another false activation, whereas the ACK-345 can be wired with shielded wire on the provided connectors.
