jb-eye Posted April 24, 2005 Posted April 24, 2005 Surely they wouldn't run the risk of installers turning their back on them to retaliate against an obvious move to damage OUR industry? 49947[/snapback] Redcare dont give tuppence for installers. I quote Rich post above ARCs are only supposed to sell Redcare connections to approved installers, Redcare is also expensive for what it is, and what tends to happen is that end users only buy it if their insurer tells them they have to have it. Redcare is on OLD piece of outdated rubish that we have to instal because insurers make us.Jef Customers!
Guest IM_Alarms Posted April 24, 2005 Posted April 24, 2005 What make you think it's outdated then. I can't see many competitors waving their flags and showing us better products. But then then i'm too busy to be looking

A product that reports a line fail and sends a customer out (without backup) to god knows what? Would you buy this if you had a choice? No didn Customers!
Guest IM_Alarms Posted April 24, 2005 Posted April 24, 2005 I dont get it? Surely you cant suggest that Redcare is out of date because of ACPO verification needs, that doesn't make sense. I was expecting something along the lines of .............. Company A make a piece of kit which is X times faster, X times smaller, half the price and has these better features...........

sparky83 Posted April 24, 2005 Posted April 24, 2005 And why is it not SIA rather than sending pins what a load of rubbish I think they can do better! Trade Member
Nova-Security Posted April 24, 2005 Posted April 24, 2005 Redcare did do SIA and Point ID on the Redcare Serial STU (256 Channels), but know body used it due to the price and the only panel it worked on properly was Airitech which most installers dont like, so it got scrapped. www.nova-security.co.uk www.nsiapproved.co.uk No PMs please unless i know you or you are using this board with your proper name.
Ken G Posted April 25, 2005 Author Posted April 25, 2005 So, Ken what DO you mean?The question as phrased doesn't make sense as Redcare is a very specific and highly secure SERVICE that happens to also use some interesting technology. I can't imagine you're planning to set up in competition. What are you trying/hoping to do? 49834[/snapback] Set up in competition is exactly what I intend to do! My clients are sick and tired of paying through the nose for a not fantastic service that's been forced upon them by their insurance companies. Having looked into it in some detail I am convinced that the only thing that the insurance companies are going to accept instead of Redcare GSM is an exact copy of Redcare GSM, preferably with some added features. I have everything in place to do this except for the hardware. I understand that the STU's are available fairly easily, but what about the other end?
BUSTER Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 I hope you've got a serious amont of cash available because first of all you have got to set up an ARC and get NSI approved Any comments / opinions posted are my opinion only and do not represent those of my employer or Company
