  1. CAT7 seems a bit overkill?
  2. Hi, welcome to TSI. The best way to get urgent help is to call a local professional - whereabouts in the UK are you?
  3. Yes - exactly what I use - got mine from IKEA
  4. True, if I ever wanted a simple proscribed point of civil law clarifying the last person I'd ask is a copper.
  5. I know what you're saying, but they will on a brand new installation, and I thought it was those the advice was aimed at. Also, if people do let the batteries run down and not replace, with a dedicated MCB it's even easier to just turn the whole lot off to stop the 'annoying bleeping', so that's another good reason to have them on the same MCB as something people can't do without.
  6. Well they should have 3 days+ worth of battery backup!
  7. I actually thought dedicated domestic smoke alarm MCBs were discouraged because if they trip, there is no reason for the householder to do anything about it, unlike if it was shared with the lights, when they would prob fix it ASAP...
  8. Don't tell me he/she thought it was free monitoring?
  9. Something sounds not right there. Is the panel 2nd hand as this is not the current version.
  10. Hi Tracy, welcome to TSI - thanks for abiding by our rules and not posting any contact information in your advert. However, you will need to make 5 posts of your own before you can be sent private mail. I would introduce yourself in the New Members area for one, and could you reply below letting us know where the vacancies are located? Thanks!
  11. Welcome to TSI - why not make 5 posts then you can apply for trade then post job adverts in the trade section.
  12. I don't know much about Galaxy but the 1*** numbering indicates RIO1 afaik, usually this would be in the panel itself (I guess there are/were older Gal models though with no onboard zones, bit like a Menvier 2500?) So your 1001 output is RIO1, on board the panel, and yes can be programmed as a bell (or anything you like).
  13. http://www.solwise.co.uk/net-powerline-homeplug-tp.html It says twisted pair but they admit themselves it works perfectly on crappy CCA doorbell cable, so should be fine on short runs and cant imagine a lift company using rubbish cables in the loom.
  14. Hi and welcome, you'll need 5 posts and then you can apply to trade
  15. Agreed, Terminal 6 must be Tamper Source
  16. Don't forget even if there is only a single spare pair, even if not twsited, you can get 2-wire IP transmitters such as from Solwise
  17. Not me, sorry U You might want to post in Wanted section if you haven't already? Or you can if you're trade (and apply for trade meantime) anyway that is.
  18. Ah those were the days, back to the student flat for a 5am bottle of red wine each and a few Comic Strip VHS's
  19. lol the 2nd funiest incident was when a drunk driver thought we were plod coming home at 4am, back then I had a J reg white astra with wheel trims knocked off, looked like typical undercover copper car of the day It was cold as fook so we both still had our yellow jackets on The car in front was weaving all over the road at 5mph and hit the kerb then stalled. We stopped and approached the guy, who said 'im sorry officers i've had a few'. So we told him it would be better if he turned himself in at the plod station, by foot about 50m away as it happened. And watched him just about walk up the steps. He probably just got kicked out again for being pissed, and didn't say a word about drink driving, but who knows?
  20. Years ago as a student I had a saturday job operating CCTV, me and a mate always worked together We mostly worked nights once a week when the site was busy We did one day shift once only as a favour to the manager Mostly things were shut weekdays other than maccy d's so for anyone to park on the far side of the car park for no reason was odd CCTV was way ahead of it's time looking back, would actually shame some budget setups now. (I still remember the tape change alarm and the massive bollocking you got for missing it though!) Anyway, across goes the hand, glovebox, box roll, out comes Fiesta.... He's grinning away as he's cracking one off, just at the 'right moment' we hit 'print' and the mitsubishi printer (I remember that for some reason) whirs into life. As he approches the narrow exit (it was probably designed for parking barriers that were never fitted) I stop the car, and hand him his picture....
  21. that too, always boils my piss when you have the mag in front of you.
  22. I see they've tightened up on arbitrary use of tat codes with the new website, ********. You used to be able to add the current tat code ending to a lot more items than were featured in said tat mag and more often than not you'd strike bronze. Not so much now I find.
  23. I confess I got lucky and bought two 4x service cases at approx £35 from a closing down hardware store in Wales. Total luck when I bought my van a few years ago.
