  1. I would have thought quality gear would have been OK - the wireless chip scanny uses was developed intially by a division of GEC-Marconi (their Essex based EEV division) which did a lot of commercial spin offs from defence work, was possibly over specced and/or benefited from the input of the sort of scientific genius probably far more than is needed for the average 'consumer' product. Texecom is a lot newer so no doubt designed with 4G in mind from the start, whoever the RF chipset provider. However, perhaps Honeywell gear, although I'd have thought it decent, has it's RF origins in a US product that just happens not to be going down so well with 4G? Risco, I have no idea. That's all totally off the top of my head. Chinky stuff will undoubtedly suffer the most, even if the RF IC sections are blatent clones of EU designed chipsets. of vague interest - http://rsgb.org/main/files/2012/11/EMC02-final.pdf
  2. Certainly it's got TV suppliers paranoid enough to filter and modify a lot of their gear...
  3. Unfortunately, paypal, ebay, do indeed refund the minute evidence of sending any type of tracked package is given. I have even had someone 'return' something using the entered royal mail code 'Fukoffebay'. They of course got a full instant refund, although I did eventually get it reversed after a LOT of shouting...
  4. If you are going to commit fraud, always a good tip not to plan it out loud on a public forum, don't we think?
  5. Does anyone remember those ludicrously biassed 'cost of two wire vs conventional systems' comparisons in trade mags where they used to quote 'EOL units' at £150 each for the conventional price?
  6. If you want to keep your neighbours as friends, I would call an out of hours pro now. The battery is faulty, almost certainly dead after all these years. If you find the main control box, and disable it, then it's possible the external siren will then start to sound for up to 20 minutes. Smashing it up, or disabling the keypad, will not help I'm afraid.
  7. I had a funny dealing, on the 'M' also that 'lid tamper' inc case and modules was always an eng reset event? Whilst of course you could set zone tamper to user... Not sure if that's right but had a play with an M600 last week prior to scrapping.
  8. There, you answered your own question Nope, not a panel that's well liked - (except by norms BiL and whistles parents)
  9. Hi there, welcome! Have moved your post to a new topic
  10. Better take it up with the ICO then - it's very clearly laid out on the 'domestic CCTV' section of their website.
  11. Any time public space is included, even if it is a small overlap i.e pavement in front of garden, the domestic total exemption no longer applies.
  12. It will very soon, although have admitted enforcement will be few and far between at this stage.
  13. Always the sign of a rush job isn't it, bracketed PIRs sat in the middle of the ceiling. Used my 2nd one ever last month, moving an existing IR120.
  14. TBH they are already going for a fair few quid on ebay, can't see prices rising just yet
  15. Nope youre right, it's something they introduced on the last incarnations of the now discontinued 9751 9752 and 9853 EN models that's slightly pointlessly crept into the remaining 9651 model
  16. There is no issue, although on a 9651 the only relevant bus checks it's doing are for keypads. A longish wait is normal, I upgraded a 9853 last week with a second keypad and xpander and that takes about the same time to get to 'exit engineer?'. Other than mains or battery, if there are faults it can see, it won't let you exit. The only specific bellbox fault this panel can detect is an open tamper.
