my alarm is driving me crazy too--longish

so, I posted last week that in the middle of the night, my alarm sounded, if I reset it with the remote it would stop and start again, immediately.
when at work, the car only sits for 4 hours, then I go to lunch....so, overnight is the only time it sits for more than 6 hours. I started pressing the "night panel" button when removing the key, and locking the doors with the key, so as to reduce the number of sensors being used. No more alarms.
today, I brought it to the local indep. shop, we hooked up the tech II and found only 1 report of the alarm being tripped, that was because of the passenger door, but without a time/date stamp, I could say with some certainty that the passenger door event occured a long time ago.
the guys at the shop suggested is arm the alarm normally for a while, and then come back. They have seen the siren batteries fail, they also know about the water coming out of the a/c finding its way onto the floor and damaging the controller for the alarm (TWICE).
I am still betting on the siren, maybe this would not be traced by the OBD...
