Veritas R8

Hi all

I started using the veritas R8 for budget installations and I use the Galaxy and the excell for everything else. I am working towards S.S.A.I.B recognition and this may seem silly but is the R8 ok for smaller installations. (ssaib ok I mean)?

We are an SSAIB registered installer and we use R8 for all budget installations they are fine, just make sure you check what grade each model is!

R8 is g2 as is the excel.

standard veritas g1, so long as SDP states the grade your fitting to is what tha kit is graded at, no worries.

I really can't be ar**** with it anymore.

I thought R8 was grade 1. R8+ is grade 2

Your right im wrong,

I was about to say the difference is the plus has comms and can have lcd rkp

The r8 only has 7 event log.

Id be better off keeping me trap shut.

r8 has a very small event log - this may not meet recommendation from insurance companies that require a certain size log.

the cp8l from risco- can be a grade 2x panel, but has a 250 event log and they now do the software to meet EN regs.
