  to find that someone is selling telecom sounders on ebay.

I thought this was metal until I looked closer. No wonder the bottom nut was rusty, bet mounting it like that wasn't intended?

Suspect Roy has bought this from another seller a few weeks back and now realises he doesn't have the time, skills, or inclination to fit a 30 year old alarm system.

I remember ordering a Moss 'lightswitch PIR' from Maplins only to be told 3 weeks later by letter that it was now discontinued with a cheque at the bottom as a refund.

 

Alans funny stories back again, same time tomorrow.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Those bloody paragons are the devils work! Programming is an absolute nightmare and the key combinations are stupid. I have one in my collection, which I should really bin because the power supply is whacked. It runs when on batteries though so why not keep it? My god I have a problem...

Never used or seen a pyronix paragon. Might get one for my collection one day

It will be in your junk collection tho

There is gear we rate some is poor some is great. I doubt any of us thats worked with it has pyronix in high regard. Castle yes pyronix no. I'm hoping hik will make castle great again but it's not about that so probably no. 

I have used a couple of euro minis. They are pretty good but I wouldn't fit them. Before I moved to Orisec the deltabell was my sounder of choice but the back light did get on my nerves. You could either choose one that only lights up half of the box or one that looks really weak. 

I should see if I have an msx card for that 44 of yours I'll have a look later today

I have a euro 44 panel.  My favourite panel after the gen1 optima panels 

Try Orisec, you'll soon change your mind

 

If you send them an e-mail they can sort somthing out for you. I am only 14 and only do installs for relatives and family freinds, so not much in terms of registered companies here. The sales team are great and will try to accommodate you as well as they can
