  1. Always the sign of a rush job isn't it, bracketed PIRs sat in the middle of the ceiling. Used my 2nd one ever last month, moving an existing IR120.
  2. TBH they are already going for a fair few quid on ebay, can't see prices rising just yet
  3. Nope youre right, it's something they introduced on the last incarnations of the now discontinued 9751 9752 and 9853 EN models that's slightly pointlessly crept into the remaining 9651 model
  4. There is no issue, although on a 9651 the only relevant bus checks it's doing are for keypads. A longish wait is normal, I upgraded a 9853 last week with a second keypad and xpander and that takes about the same time to get to 'exit engineer?'. Other than mains or battery, if there are faults it can see, it won't let you exit. The only specific bellbox fault this panel can detect is an open tamper.
  5. I had a great way of blocking ads on the PC using the Hosts file. Unfortunately I need to see if I can do the same at the router for youview...
  6. Hmm, sounds like PR chain rattling to me... Time will tell.
  7. Yes, indeed it's easy to forget most JP aren't as stupid as the average alarm monkey!
  8. Get paid? Slightly better effort than my smelly alarm joke How come they went to a security Co rather than broadcast? Oh yeah, cost?!
  9. Yep this is it when you're checking every year, it's not so relevant.
  10. Was it something like lead carbon I saw in Rs last year, five times the price but a ten year warranty?
  11. Has anyone ever thought of making a 7aH battery comprised of several bellbox batteries?
  12. +1 Axis are bulletproof, and no mickey mouse company to deal with either, which is a bonus.
  13. Yeah thought that except customer says they got to choose the kitchen but were never offered an alarm Maybe some Co they had lined up pulled out Oh and there is a no bellbox covenant on the whole estate, oops!!
  14. Sized up a job this week where no wiring in a new build but a spur on a dedicated circuit marked alarm. Must have been for a wireless system but not even a keypad wire. Odd.
  15. Im qual but not part p, as I try to avoid panels in bathrooms and Sheds! And non domestic isnt under the scheme as we all know. All paperwork using iet model forms.
  16. There is absolutely no requirement for any additional fused spur being added to a ring circuit or lighting circuit to be doneby a Part P bod. But it should be a competent person and should be certificated for the tests that were done. Obvious exceptions would be; Domestics in a Bathroom or when any part of the cable runs outdoors with a junction box also being outside Connecting direct to the CU and prob lots of others....
