Not to contradict you (I appreciate the assistance), but I dont have a
clear evidence that
the battery IS the (only) problem. I will replace it due to the
overheating issue, but I have a feeling it isn't going to solve my
initial problem

lets recapitulate:

1) Under "normal use" (panel powered by the home circuit), when an
alarm is triggered, the siren will just "blip" for 2 sec and the
system will not call the
central. In theory, the battery shouldnt be a factor as there is still
electricity feeding the panel/siren

2) Under "normal use", the panic button can cause the horn to ring
until we stop it (so the siren itself is not the problem)

3) When I cut the breaker, the system was able to call the central (so
the communication is not the problem). I dont recall if the siren went
on when
I did this test (the wife thinks so...I can't repeat it now, its 11
PM)
