  1. Hi
  2. Yep you can link out all the zones on your hotel apartment alarm come back the following week and burgle the new occupants
  3. Honeywell is available in Europe, well its quite popular here in the UK, but it will be a higher specification than the US version. If I recall correctly US do not have tamper circuits, they dont have external sounders in favour of a board in the garden, so the panel may not even have external sounder outputs
  4. Reading the plastic it says there is a back tamper, meaning that both lid and the tamer at the rear of the box needs to be closed
  5. Try holding the spring down and resetting the alarm, the button makes a click noise when closed
  6. Are you sure the lid is closing the switch properly? try stretching the spring a little
  7. On a serious note a career is if not the most important, it is one of the most important things you are going to choose in your life. Think about what you want to be doing with your life, a few of us have made a very good living from this industry, but I would say it is al relative. Its not about money its about happiness in what you do, its about having no regrets, if you want to do, then it do it, so long as you can afford to live on the wages. I would say at least a year not a few months to up your wage £3.5k, Ive just upped my trainee by £4k he has been with me just over a year and has had only one pay rise of £1k in that time, but he is now earning the co money whereas for a long time he was costing as he was slowing engineers down.
  8. I found a naturist magazine under the floor boards once thats about it
  9. use a 3.4 Ah battery you dont need 7Ah for 5 pirs a rkp and a bbox
  10. Just stating the facts Imran
  11. Im thinking about going and making a cup of tea
  12. 600mile round trip for me I doubt he would want to pay my charge for an engineer for days work plus overtime each way
  13. It looks like James isnt interested either, fussy bunch us lot
  14. There's a cafe on the M25 where many meet at lunch time but not sure which one or what time
  15. James covers Brum and he installs Honeywell, he may be able to help
  16. We have a minimum 3 week lead time, and work is constant. Lots of companies wont touch stuff they dont know, there are co's out there that are multi skilled but the problem with this is that it is hard enough training new engineers on panels that we already install let alone lots of different types of panels. We (As a company) never used to be fussy but we soon learned at our cost that its expensive not being fussy. Takeover systems that are not your preferred system and that have not been installed properly can come back and bite you hard. Theres a reason why many companies you called have gone, its mainly due to them being run the wrong way, the co's that run their co as a business are the ones that are still going, most of those will want to do the job their way or not at all. That said there are plenty of installers that install honeywell kit
  17. I wouldnt bother and just concentrate on getting my teleporter up and running
  18. I didnt say tight I said hard, there is a big difference to being tight and things being hard, Freudian slip perhaps
  19. In the hallway above the picture rail, in the downstairs WC, in the lobby, in the porch, in the outbuilding, in the other outbuilding, in the wardrobe in the main bedroom, in the dressing room, under the kitchen sink, in the utility room, in the dumb waiter, in the lift room,in the gym, I could still go on
  20. Its in the control panel, call the person who installed it as it could be anywhere, loft, garage, kitchen cupboard. plant room, larder, under-stairs cupboard, airing cupboard, pantry, powder room, orangey, second bedroom, cellar, I could go on
  21. Ben you need to make 5 posts before anyone can PM you
  22. Borrow a battery are things really that hard for people out there?
  23. Nobody is likely going to want to install kit they have not supplied, it becomes a pain if it goes wrong with all sorts of warranty issues.
