Specialist Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 Oh dear lord no, wouldn't touch another 1 with a bargepole. It's a mates alarm that he bought as a kit, then realised he couldn't fit it. So roped me in for the price of a Chinese takeaway. To be fair apart from eating batteries, it's worked ok for just over 2 years. No mate: My normal kit would be DSC, Gardtec, Pyronix & Texecom.

Barsnake Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 The Dual Frequency Pyronix Stuff works well and stop the supervision/jamming (All NEW kit is OK) Beware on older stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Specialist Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 Well the LED street lighting outside this property has been reconnected for 4 days now and each night when the light is on, they have at least 1 false alarm normally 2 or 3. So out it comes, to be replaced with a nice wired alarm. Quote Customers Love us, Intruders Hate us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's probably going to be replaced with a Castle Euro mini panel, Pyronix detectors & external sounder. It's a nice panel and so far I've never had any problems with them.

james.wilson Posted April 16, 2019 Author Share Posted April 16, 2019 Thanks I was curious as I assumed wireless. Wonder how this will go with newer systems supported by a maint contract?

Specialist Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 Have to be honest, if it had been my choice there wouldn't have been a cheap tat wireless system fitted in the first place. It's a small takeaway and during working hours the front and back doors are open constantly, so roughly 10 hours a day. You can imagine how well it goes through batteries, the other thing with the Prime is that the detector cases are really brittle and the securing tabs snap off easily.

sixwheeledbeast Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 Can't beat a wired system, I'd at least choose something hybrid so if you have an issue with the wireless you have options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Specialist Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 Hi SWB: It's going to be down to his budget a lot and knowing him, it won't be large. At least with the panel and kit I was going to spec with an ACT1313 thrown in for good measure, he should be well covered and have peaceful nights. Quote Customers Love us, Intruders Hate us.
