MrHappy Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 3 hours ago, Spherehopper said: was replaced when we had all the boards up hence discovering later poor workmanship as well. when the alarm was done in 80's it was very unusual to gut & completely redo a house in one hit. the cable skinned across the door way would be so it wouldn't be seen under a thinning carpet, the soldiered joints where quite nicely done its probably given decades of service... If you've the budget to have all the boards up & replace all the doors, why haven't you got £150 for decent controls ? 2 Quote Mr Veritas God Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

datadiffusion Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 That kind of jointing might be normal, and I've seen it lots, but running bare cores any distance, normal, really? Blimey.

norman Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 An ex engineer I used to work with used to rout the boards when they posed a problem... probably quicker to lift or fish. Quote Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What would you suggest? I don't see any problem using decent electronics that are working fine. A new battery, all tests fine, it's probably half way through it's life. The Scantronic box seems perfectly adequate. Why blow £150 for no reason? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's an iPhone? (born 1958, an iphobe if not a technophobe). What I dislike is wasting money. Reusing my existing gear, tweaked to what I need it to do is surely being "green". If it "curls it's toes" then I shall replace it with a new panel. Whilst it works and does the job I need, then why change? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
