Guest cctvman Posted December 17, 2005 Posted December 17, 2005 Lander now there is a blast from the past (showing my age) ! Microtech made the panels that lander used from the late 70's except that M&W CPA6 which sounded like it was ready to blow up while running through it's exit tone From the early keyswitch panel to the exe 50-100 & 1000 which was more like using a securicor panel but half the size & a bigger zone expander box which you could work in The bellbox's were also built in there East Kilbride factory & the last was the microtec polycarb cover bell & siren which had the great S.A. module that allways let water in the rear Microtech never made products for anyone else until Lander was bought out in the very early 90's if I remember correctly & selsport does a Lander bell up with 2.5mm clips bring back any memories ? Lander was one of the best companys around certainly up in scotland around the mid-late 80's until they sold up Right i better get of this subject before i start having nightmares about old panels like the ademco 210 & Munford & White Cpa 6 Arrggghhh Bring back the CPC 4 !

Selsport69 Posted December 18, 2005 Posted December 18, 2005 CCTVMan if I remember right it was only a Lander dummy bell that went up with 2.5clips but then again after trying that out and seeing the qualty fixing a few more dummies in Edinburgh went up like that. Shooo dont say anymore Quote Kev

Guest Trulloman Posted December 19, 2005 Posted December 19, 2005 Lander didnt make anything as far as i recall, but your correct about the pre Gal panel, it was called Excecutive or something like that. It was made by Microtech which was a new founded company. Arghhhhhhh!! dont forget the Micro 9 and the later Micro 3 or was it 6 with the built in faults that came as standard at no extra cost. Had the rows of red and green leds that gave a nice flashing light show.(if only the panel worked as well) Also //.National Installer.// did try out the DSC range 3/4 years ago, soon removed them from the stock list. There are a couple I know of that have hard wired and radio on on same panel. Customer knows more about the panel than the engineers. Quote
