    In 1979 I started working for a Gentleman called Paul Miller, his company was called Sonic Alarms. Paul went on to open his own ARC call National Monitoring. Sonic alarms introduced bar codes to all its stock items which were scanned on service etc. It took me almost 20 years to catch on.


     

    I didn’t know you worked for sonic at one point.

     

    I used to maintain a lot of their work around Altrincham, Hale Barns way.  The standard of the installations where some of the best I have ever seen.

  2. Had exactly the same thing many times.

     

    Once a customer was convinced it’s was the alarm and insisted we attend site to fix. I advised that we would charge for the visit.

     

    On arrival I found an old carbon monoxide detector down the back of a sideboard in the lounge, I was on site less than a minute.

     

    they kicked off big time when they got the bill and canceled there contract, they did pay though.

     

    good riddance nob heads.

  3. Buy cheap, buy twice.

    We agreed to fit cctv at the directors house of one our customers, we don’t do low end domestics.

    He had a system fitted 12 months ago by the local Facebook gang on the cheap.

     

    Now wonder it had stopped working.

  4. The new Eaton 9943 keypad is fully backward compatible with all of the 9651 panels.

    buy the panel as a kit with a keypad as it’s within a few ££ of buying the keypad on its own.

    for a split second I thought that was Vesda, ha ha turns out its a fishing rod.

  5. We recently upgraded a bargain booze shop and fitted the 2mp Hik tvi cameras as the coax was already in place.

    i paid £xxx per camera and charged more than Logan’s full install per camera to swap them over.

     

    When will these lot stop working for peanuts.
