I have a wireless alarm from response and i would like to hard wire the siren box as the sun does not catch it enough, It has a 7.5 Vdc jack socket inside that is for charging the battery up if it goes flat, can i just put 7.5v to this permently and this will keep the battery charged? Its a 6v battery aswell, or would it be better to connect the battery terminals to 6v DC?

I don't think there's an output from the control panel to charge your alarm box but as you suggest you can use the jack. A 6v battery needs aleast 7.2V to charge it.
Id but a 6v sealed lead acid charger from Maplin an wire that in...put it on charge periodically.
My SU6 is on a nort wall..its fine in the summer but I do swap the battery a couple of times during the winter.
