datadiffusion Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 C is not strictly 'no connection'. It is actually a 'normally open' circuit off the relay that for some reason isn't marked as such. Or at least it always was when I last checked years ago. Hence this could cause problems if being used as a resistor common etc...

The chap from the electrical wholesalers seem to rate them and apparently a good seller. Had a look online too and appear to get good feedback. I suppose as long it does its job what more can you ask from smoke detector ! Well, intruder alarms aren't exactly designed to be fire alarms. It's normally best to fit mains interlinked in this situation. Don't get me wrong they work well but it's not the best method for quite a few reasons. Hence comments above...

You could well be right - last time I actually put my meter on it was about 2004 I think!
