hope to mount it in a cupboard with a hole in it so it will be not be seen thing they are a good idea as you want be able to grab any thing and run when the alarm is going off do you not think it will be a good idea.

do you not think it will be a good idea.

ever smoke clock or bandit do you have any prefrance which is good or bad

Positively underwhelmed with advice. Not exactly the best idea we've seen i'm afraid.

Some smoke machines are very effective. check this

.

very heavy though, as i recall 25 kilo's with canister. i usually hang from the fixings first to see if it will be ok. also, the nozzle gets extremely hot so make sure the hole you will make is wide. i love fitting these, well testing them.

ours are triggered by the alarm, intruder output.

Edited to correct a statement.

smoke cloak are really good ive worked with then a fair few times. last residential we did had six cloaks mounted above skirting boards then hidden with matching rad covers, it looked good.

Id be aware of the power consumption, itll probably require a new supply if you require more than one.

Ask for gary to do the install if you use them, very efficient and nice guy too.

Just a quick note re: the video link above.

That is neither a Bandit system nor am I entirely sure it is a system fitted by Abel (regardless of the publishers YouTube ID).

Be sure of your sources if possible.
