  1. No, I'm in the English, we don't do that sort of thing... In his part of the world they probably, have dead dogs in the street, open sewers & wire alarm funny.... Was it Prestatyn ?
  2. dam... The alarm has been messed about with so- Ideally you need a proper alarm man, who'll charge you to look at it Its 20yr old kit if the rkp & cables are okay, a new battery & external sounder will probably be needed Retain the wires & replace every item is my preferred option Then you need to have a service agreement in place, as daft it seems they do require checking To do things properly cost money (I doubt you have 20yr mobile. Tv or car as daily driver)
  3. but never seen one these - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/REV-TEK-RB6-Burglar-Alarm-Control-Panel/312306621190?hash=item48b6ecdb06:g:GNkAAOSwG1Jb5Dfo oh yes,
  4. get a dog instead, you'll make new friends whilst wondering around with a plastic bag of dog shit in your pocket.... ni-cad, just buy a complete sounder (or a dog)
  5. its provably powered down as the rkp has had it ? IIRC we was fitting these in 2000 ish,
  6. some item went tits on control 4 system the dealer could have the item fixed for 4k, (but you only get 6 months warranty on a repair) or a new item for 7.5k when powered off it lost its config, (he'd never bother to look if their was coin battery on the pcb) the proper monitoring of the alarm dropped by the wayside, I assume a few hundred quid was too dear
  7. I got pissed of with Lenovo thinkpad's, last 2 broke hinges I have a toughbook tablet thing but prefer a laptop Work buys a laptop, it gets used at home for year or so, then goes to work when it gets marked then broken, meh. There already a replacement machine waiting in the wings...
  8. I suspect you'll have issue with your texecom radio stuff, get a man to do it for you & he'll have to sort the faults out
  9. buy a cheapo acer laptop & throw it away when it breaks...
  10. rip it out & put a decent lighting controller it, (but nobodys make anything to compete with it ?) take the cover off & walk test it (they go opaque with age swap sensor around to see it the fault follows work the pots back & forth to see if the lux sense are at a working level swap a sensor with a new one fault finding is 2 man job after hours, it cheap to put the lights on timer
  11. IIRC the IP rating refers to the electronics ? the E (Economy version) didn't have has rubber gasket seal on the internal plastic cover
  12. no, another young lad DD will be removing tat however by the time it comes off the wall its had 20yrs of sunshine, rain & birdshit on the plastics...
  13. A while back I saved & sent one out for one of the other lads on here that collects.
  14. You'd never be brave enough to go to Wakefield it's that rough even the muggers have to go out in pairs....
  15. 2005ish we did some flats you won't be replacing a 2nd floor ewd of a ladder... My person fav was end stations needing a triple ladder for access !
  16. the recommenced minimum height is 3m ? having to stand on a leaded bay was not uncommon however- working on this can't ready be done safety off a ladder?
