  1. What about hot wiring an wireless door bell from Argos , the door bell switch might be able to be operated like that somehow Otherwise you will have to an on a tx Rx somewhere and spend loads on a chime Ps does the Optex AX-100TFR cost more than the takex?
  2. I used the reflector one , cabled one end

  7. Expensive way for driveway chime
  8. Maybe this version isn't correct for your application so explain application and then perhaps go for another model? Although you can get small low voltage buzzers
  9. Out of curiosity ,it has a relay output I assume your having it on your drive and using it as an alert or something? So it's cabled back to the house? If so then you can use any PSU with extra relay and any chime But what do you mean it only has a 3.6v output?
  10. Dude when you mean get a year , is that minimum? Whats maximum you seen them work?
  11. It's possible , especially with DIY stuff and depend on position of sensors and other factors batteries , what heating controls you have , some are worse than others

  14. Point behind intruder company Allot of them actually only have basic experience in fire , as the fire companies have basic experience in intruder Few smaller companies hold expertise in both when a problem occurs Or they just to busy to give it real attention, small contract not being worth much
  15. Is the company specialising in intruder alarms or they jack of all trades ? Get a fire company in for a quote and get wallet out
  16. 7years working 5 years ago recommended Not very good for an orangery more like Few posts later than this the blag has started Question are you going to change the smokes yourself , or instruct your alarm installer to do it ?
  17. No that's cos they doing undercover HMO and plan to convert to units later......
  18. Go for seperate detection in orangery and link to your intruder if business is good enough seperate Comms Unless the alarm gorillas can suggest how to have all on one set of Comms
  19. Fire brigade will more like downgrade your attendance ? I would ask your installer to quote something better , reality is "weather" your willing to pay for it or not
  20. Can you select then to be smoke only ? And heat only and fit to better locations for each Pete , beams??? Depends on how it's setup no?
  21. Your already getting average prices , so wasting your time , what you need is a local electrician to fit you a texecom Veritas cheap and get on with it
  22. Buy whatever you want , a house basher might charge you £450 to swap over whatever you want with no warranty or call backs..... Unless you pay callouts of course
