  1. So hack the smartphone and you have full access? Do you realise how easy it is to comprimse android devices and get full access without the user being aware? It's a piece of piss, and many are exploiting it. I wouldn't be putting my name to that sort of risk, especially something built to the usual chinese standards.
  2. True. i want a new range rover with most of the options ticked. I'm happy to spend almost £200 a month. Any recommendations?
  3. I tried leafleting various areas, nearly all timewasters calling off the back of them, now i just leaflet the 2 or 3 streets surrounding my new installs/takeovers, that generates a lot of good leads, usually after they have spoken to the customer, deltabell x lightbox with my logo printed in translucent ink generates a lot of interest.
  4. Gmail works just fine for me, as long as you log in to the gmail web portal first and enable access from less secure devices. Also have it working just fine through sendgrid.
  5. Its going to be a pain to tell someone your access code. Folk will think you are mental when you tell them to press mushroom carrot frog bird to get in. They'll think you have been on the shrooms. I can see someone raising a DDA complaint over it.
  6. What does the mushroom do? Does the room melt or start breathing?
  7. Many chinese power supplies, if the neutral becomes disconnected but the live remains, such as in the case of a severed cable or supply grid fault, the output side of the supply can rise to supply potential, giving 240v where only 12v is supposed to go. Fire and electrocution is a very real possibility, especially since so many chinese products come with no fuse protection and undersized wiring. about 2 thirds of the ones we investigated had underrated components, inadequate primary-secondary isolation, single component failures can cause either supply potential at output terminals or the device to catch fire. The plastic housings are of poor construction, a small knock can smash them leaving bare live unfused connections. Thousands of other examples but i don't have all day to list them. There is no regulation to stop these parasitic companies putting out dangerous equipment with falsified specs, in the uk, at least there traditionally has been a guaranteed minimum standard of quality and safety so people who buy on price alone still get a reasonably safe product that does roughly what it says on the box(except maybe british cars, maybe communist manufacture is the common denominator in **** quality?), dealing with chinese companies, there are no such safeguards, anything goes and there are a lot of scum getting away with outright theft. Until something is done about that side of things even good chinese products will be disregarded as chinktat unfortunately.
  8. It has no bearing on the uk market at all, although its not that hard to get a product through, at least it wasn't in 2004 when i was involved in getting telecoms, epos and gaming psus ul approved for export to the us working for a very small manufacturer, send the product off, either make any changes they request or the toss, to which they will change their decision if you present a valid argument to them. I can see how it would be difficult to get the majority of the dangerous chinese ***** flooding the market these days by them though, but that doesn't stop them putting ul on the label anyway.
  9. The blu ray version of that film is better.
  10. Thats a lot of kisses dan, i think he likes you.
  11. Not many were soft by the time i saw them, in fact they were pretty crunchy
  12. The one i suggested is hd, 1080p25
  13. I bagsy not hosing the staining off all the leather and rubber gear this time.
  14. http://www.connectorco.com/catalogue/bnc-panels.htm
  15. A battery operated flashing led in the 5e housing eould be the simplest route. Poweing the sab without a panel connected will cause lots of issues you dont want to get involved in.
  16. Less inductance. Higher frequency signal
  17. be great if it incorporated evohome too but that would be asking too much I fear.
  18. Doesn't everybody. Do you carry professional indemnity and efficacy insurance for this trade? How do you think things will go when one of your customers gets done over and their insurers ask who last maintained the security system?
  19. 6 pair cw1308 IS telephone cable so that seems odd.
