  1. I was going to offer you a balloon on a stick, but I think the balloon is too generous, how about a stick?
  2. Keypad flaps missing otherwise I'd have had it... What shade of tobacco yellow is that anyway?
  3. The battery is ready for changing @ 4 years, the light on the main control may be dim by default. The only way to test the battery would be a discharge test.
  4. Do you know when it was serviced last? Turning them off and on is not good for them if the back up battery is faulty.
  5. Must be a typo, on his flyers it says dogging service...
  6. Where he throws in free boiler cover?
  7. Apologies, no, as the siren rings this can sometimes vibrate the internal tamper spring from it's position causing a tamper. You can check for a negative return on the tamper wire from the siren at the panel end. At the control panel identify the correct wire from the siren, remove from the control panel and put the negative probe of your multi-meter on it, the positive probe onto a 12+ source, if the tamper loop is complete the multimeter will show c12v, if the tamper loop is broken it will show 0v Be careful there is mains voltage present in the control panel so only do this if you are competent, otherwise call a specialist.
  8. Ringing siren caused a tamper? check the tamp return for -v
  9. Get off that fence and tell us what you really think!
  10. they were issued in the mid 90's iirc in these...
  11. They used to issue an 'Approved Installer' credit type card
  12. Beat me to it, we're dinosaurs in comparison with skills that are no longer needed, don't knock plug and play in a few years home security will be wireless plug and play interconnected to your Alexa... Oh...
  13. Unlikely but just a thought, I've never had issues with them but the LED's are easily replaced if you are OK with a decent soldering iron.
  14. Have you tried swapping the RKP's to see if it's a voltage issue?
  15. Very cutting and I'm wiping the tears from my keyboard. Did you get it sorted btw?
  16. AS ABOVE, IT'S SKIP FODDER.
