Thanks, I thought I was quite good compared to my ADE Accenta 8

Just out of interest, What are your opinions on the Pyronix Paragon Plus?

Think I'll replace it with a Ventcroft Compact.

Thanks. So it's probably just a home built bell box?

The Novagard on our house makes a very fast hi-lo tone. If anyone knows what they sound like it that it? or do they sound different?

I'm trying to solve the problem of our Risco Novagard 4 not having any flashing LEDs. Is it possible that Risco started making the Novagard just as a plastic housing without any components in at all and companies would have to put in a siren, strobe and tamper? Or did Risco Make it as one whole bell box with all the electronics fitted? Thanks

I think I might just take it down. It's not very loud anyway. Any Opinions on the Ventcroft Compact Classic? Fancy fitting one of these

I thought the bell box may of been home built by the security company which I was hoping they wouldn't have done. The bell box makes a very fast hi-lo tone is that what the Novagard bell boxes sound like?

The panel has never shown a tamper though. Is it possible to disable them? That's the only reason I can think of because they are not flashing and it's not a tamper fault Is it possible that an early version of the bell box didn't have any LED s at all?

The alarm has never gone off and shown a tamper fault it continues to work correctly

I thought that the company who installed it may of disabled them but I did wonder why. It could be a tamper fault because whenever the alarm is set a red alarm led starts flashing on the panel

Yes, it all works fine siren and strobe

Hello everybody! I have a question for anybody who knows about the Risco Novagard 4 bell box. I've seen them on houses with 2 red flashing LEDs they all seem to be working correctly but the one on our house doesn't have any LEDs flashing at all. It is connected to a Pyronix Paragon Plus alarm panel which is working fine and the alarm gets used. I have no Idea how old it is but I'm guessing mid 90s because of the colour of the bell box and the type of panel. As far as I know since we moved to our house in 2002 it has never had any LEDs flashing then ether. Here is a link to the picture:http://www.riscogroup.com/uk/sites/default/files/GT%20Products_NovaGard%204%20Cover%20WhWh.jpg Any help would be much appreciated on solving the mystery of the bell box.

Hello everybody! I was just wondering if anyone knows where ADE or now owned by and known as Honeywell manufacture their alarms like the Accenta and the Optima Compact My old Optima XM was made here in the UK but now they are owned by Honeywell and not branded or sold as ADE anymore if anything has changed manufacturing wise or if they are still made in the UK. Thanks for reading

Does anybody know where I could get a hold of an old style bell box like this?
