Think paid over the odds for it when they fitted it which is the annoying thing.

I carnt believe its only lasted 4 years.  

 

Its got to be a crap sensor then? 

 

Whats the best system you guys recommend? 

Seems a shame and a waste of money dumping this system? But you guys are in the know.

4am low battery says temperature is an issue in my book.

 

Seen this with genuinely low batteries in the summertime.

So, I've decided to take my work back underground.... to stop it falling into the wrong hands

Lol no dont have dacia however i dont drive a rolls royce or a bentley or can afford one.  I see whay you mean. However only went on reputation of installer etc thats why i got the system put in by them. Now four years on and i am in a hole with. 

The sensor that failing is inside the house. Tempetature had never been a issue in last 4 years.

 

 

step back a bit then, you get the car thing. If its supported then its down to the installer? im guessing its not supported. Did you say at the start you didnt want a support contract?

why would any installer offer decent kit? As long as it does a year

its back to the cheapest car you can buy isnt it

So this system is a load of trouble then?  

 

no, after using the old abacus radio system we moved to Risco (2005ish) ...

 

I'd charge for corrective visit & a new pir (if its very early system it may be  old pcb in new case)

 

I'd then offer you basic or fully comp maintenance,

 

Like the radio abacus topic of the other day the equipment is stable but quirky a competent engineer with suitable experience of the product & its piece of piss

We must have70 wire free Risco tat on the books and to be honest we don't get much bother from it.
