@gabs an extension speaker in its basic form is just a speaker in a box You need to have mould made & could use a 3rd party to produce a run of plastics Speakers would be bought in, production would be putting leads on ect... assembly & packing As a hobby you'd probably cover your costs... As a business you'd probably loose money

to set up manufacturing you'd go to a venture captial co. However I'd assume CSL have made lots more £ than any panel maker ever has & there a "marketing co." ?

Produce a pp3 power standalone shock sensor like we used to buy in the early 90's Produce commercial controls which network together rather than panels & expanders ? Produce an 8 zone wire panel with onboard keys, which is nice & slim cuase it got a NiMH battery There loads of stuff which could be made, the hard part would be making money

Consumer electronics ? or something like a room thermostat is 1/2 the price of 9948 but the development & build cost must be way cheaper An expensive thermostat is about the same cost of commercial controls & keypad but the development cost must be way cheaper & in your warehouse you can fit 20-30 in same space as metal endstation

If I was insane enough to get involved in the manufacture of alarm stuff- Happytronic would import cheap & cheerful tat from the far east, say sounders or lead acid batteries if this proved to be successful the most simple product to start in house manufacture would be an tampered extension speaker, I suspect creating a commercially successfully alarm panel manufacturer from nothing is very hard ...

4 I assume- ADE came from logic basic key operated panels & each new model became more complex than the previous ? Texecom was cheap Pir maker which expanded the range into a vertias then employed a 3rd party to engineer the premier ? Pyronix was a cheap Pir maker, (mid 80's be 5 x 2019 prices) expanded out to making other sensors, sounder & then low end panels, in the end purchasing a proper panel maker I'd also assume if you had the ability to produce intruder alarm controls you would make a lot more doing something different ?

I have assume it was rapier if the PCB was'nt marked up Toplock ?

no, however I have once swapped all insides into a texecom oddsey 3 housing

Kinda thing Arf used to bang on about

your 25yr alarm is working great apart from it false alarming.... lid tamper is either- "lid of the control equipment" adjust switch, adjust lid switch / or pcb failing A failed or old battery "External sounders tamper" Switch (adjust) lid (adjust) the bell module / pcb (replace whole sounder) the cable between the sounder(s) & the controls Personally I'd rip the both the controls & bell out as their old tat

looks like spam- link removed

long shot, but before defaulting try powering down whilst in day mode, if your eng code will silence the panel when restarted it may let you into eng mode

You'd need the prat symbol, not the bat symbol... there's some shite about the wattage of halogen tube (it is /was harder to buy 500w?) however light is measured in lumens,

Hidden cupboard full of the no duty paid cigs & tabaco...

IIRC alarm cable is rated 1A at 12vdc Should this device fail & cause death, injury or fire. The implications could an insurer refusing to pay out or a prison term

nobodies gonna swallow that...

google'd it & was surprised its was a sensible answer...

15 Dollar....

No CE mark Metal case = Class 1 Metal case is not earthed oh dear....

radio zex's 1 =012 2 = 345 3 = 678 I'd assume it will do strange stuff if there's a wired zem no'd 8 too ?

when you buy a proper one, the man will rip it off the the wall for free...

Remove the modem ?

I can no longer meet people off the internet as their is no longer any room under my patio...

I've never heard of him...
