Can anyone ever say they rated a Pyronix product as best? With all of these alarms and their new features, that can contact you and do all sorts of other things, like home automation, do you not think the true meaning of a home alarm system has been forgotten? It is nice to have all of these new features, however, it can be very complicated, and may even be less reliable.

I think I said tat wrong, all I meant was it has become so complex, it may put some people off wanting an alarm, or they may find it too complicated, compare an Optima XM to the Vanderbilt SPC alarm, surely the XM is easier to use, programme and may even be more reliable, with the only thing to go wrong a battery charging resistor Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/41028-accenta-g5-release/page/4/#findComment-459974 Share on other sites More sharing options...

james.wilson Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 most apps require you to enter a valid user code to use. Plus you can use the lock on the phone. Just don't write the code and your address on your phone! securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.
