Guest Chewie Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 Can I get some reccomendations for a bellbox. I have one from TLC but I am going to return it as it does not have flashing LED's. Just a strobe and power LED. I think flashing LED's when the system is armed adds that extra level of deterent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be too obvious and now against the regs to give visual indication of set status outside the premises. Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.

Guest Chewie Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 OK if the LED's are on all the time, no problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antinode Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 I'd take a look at the Texecom Oddysey range. They're affordable (even the full featured ones are well priced), the LEDs are nice and bright, they're easy to install and they are easy to get hold of. I bet the one you got from TLC was the ADE Sonade. When I did my work expeirience, the company I worked for used to fit those and moved onto Pyronix Belles while I was there. I would'nt really recommend either of them judging by the amount of problems they were having. Plus the LEDs on the Belle always tend to go a bit haywire which looks very unprofessional IMO. Stick with the Texecom and you won't go far wrong. Trade Member Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Chewie Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 Do the Texecoms have flashing LED's. I was looking at them on this website. http://www.alertelectrical.com/product_type.asp?typeID=4 It does not state that these texecoms have LED's, it does however say that the Pyronix has alternate flashing LED's. Is the Pyronix any good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 I'd stick with the Odyssey if I were you. The CQR Protecta looks similar but the LED's are a bit brighter I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Chewie Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 So do all the Texecom bellboxes have LED's. I dont want to order one online then find it has no LED's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Chewie Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 Thanks for the heads up. Which is the odyssey to go for 1,2 or 3. There is very little in price difference between them. Is the only difference the shape ? Is the 109db range enough or should I go for 115db All these questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest RICHL Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 The Odyssey 4 is a nice low pro-file looking unit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
