Guest Pedro Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 I have found an offer I am considering. I think I have seen this detector before, but I don't recall who the manufacturer is. Does anybody know what is on the image? Any experience with it? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monteey Posted May 21, 2005 Share Posted May 21, 2005 Well if its Lyntek then an air freshner would probably be more effective as a PIR than that thing Mark Hawks Ex BT Openreach Field Service Now Self employed telecom and data engineer www.mphtelecom.co.uk Also back doing sub contract work in the security industry.

Guest marcjacobs Posted May 21, 2005 Share Posted May 21, 2005 thanks for the URL (and the jokes), strange stuff those Lynteck-products, I think Lynteck is only for the do-it-yourself-market, or am I wrong? Never heard of Lynteck in my country, Gardtec (very famous in your country) is also unknown here, 95% of the market in Holland are Aritech-panels en Galaxy-panels.

They are sold into all distribution channels so you will find them everywhere from electronic / electrical shops to big industrial wholesalers. I was over in Amsterdam last week and noticed the large amount of aritech panels, only saw a few Galaxies though. One thing that did supprise me is the lack of bell boxes, I only saw one in the whole week I was there. Regards Bellman Service Engineer and all round nice bloke ) The views above are mine and NOT those of my employer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest marcjacobs Posted May 21, 2005 Share Posted May 21, 2005 External bellboxes are not allowed in Dutch housing-areas (because of to many false alarms), but if you put a sounder on your wall, nobody does anything against it (so today I put a Elmdene Vertec on the wall). A internal sounder (mostly Aritech AS270/AS271 or a Gardiner Betty) and outside a strobe (or behind the mirror) are the only sounders. Most alarmpanels in Holland are monitored, homesecurity systems are often "connected" to a mobile phone (if monitoring is too much expensive). Have you ever seen burglar alarms in Germany? Very strange, they don't use many PIR's there (only 1 pir in a large commercial building is "normal" there), but very many door contacts and old-fashioned glassbreakdetectors (yes, the old ones which you have to put on the window). External sounders in Germany are allowed, but you may not put a battery in it, mostly they use ugly metal sounders (FBI-horn in metal housing) with ultra large strobes on it, we had these sounders in the 80's, but the German installers still use them.
