[QUOTE="Richard-the-Ninth, post: 455955, member: 23472"] For what its worth.......... Don't touch anything radio, it can / has/ will cause grief, not to mention each device needs its own battery. If its your first alarm install don't get anything that is / can be computer programmed. Its a novel idea and ok if you do lots, but for a first one, no. get something that has a paper manual and is relatively easy to follow. I don't use them but I do hear Texecom are ok (But like I said you don't need all the whistles and bells) I would go for a hard wired system every time. less grief all round. Don't be tempted to put smoke detectors on it. Just don't. Remote signalling, don't do that either, you are on holiday and it calls you to say its gone off, what are you going to do other than worry all the time (its only natural) Stay away from shock / vibration sensors and don't bother with much upstairs, a P.I.R. on the landing is all most have.
