Hi. I have an issue wherein whenever I connect the tamper from sounder 1 (Texecom Odyssey 1E) to sounder 2 (ADE Reson8), the siren in sounder 2 makes a strained 'squealing' noise (not the normal siren sound). The panel is a Honeywell/ADE Accenta G4 Mini. The LCD RKP shows 'Tamper Fault...

Hi. A friend has recently moved house, and I decommissioned and removed the Accenta G4 Mini alarm system that I fitted for her a few years earlier. She would like me to fit this system into the new property for her. There is already an old panel (Texecom Veritas:cool: in the new property which...

Hi all. I have to wire up a Texecom Odyssey 1 sounder at the front of the house, and an ADE Reson8 sounder to the back of the house. The panel is an Accenta G4. This work is necessary due to a house move by my friend. I would like to ask if someone could please cast their eyes over my plans to...

Hello. Mods - please feel free to move this post to another section if this is not the correct place for it. I know this may be a long shot but after seeing some 1960 and 1970's Crown and Berger paint for sale on ebay, I thought I would post and ask on the forum here. I am looking for...

Afternoon folks. I am back once again with a Puma problem! I won't be carrying out any work as my landlord has an excellent gas engineer, but I like to find out what the cause(s) of the problems are with my boiler so that I can ensure the engineer addresses the correct areas. (My landlord...

Hi. I want to install a hook in my ceiling for the purposes of abseil training. Essentially I thought about getting a pair of eyebolts and screwing them into a joist. Once fitted, I could thread the rope through the eyes and attach it to a harness. Any fixings would need to support a minimum...

Hi. Like many people, I have a dodgy Potterton Puma 100. The issue I have is this: When I turn on the hot tap and there is a demand for HW at the Puma, sometimes the burner will not ignite, I can just hear loads of clicking and then the pilot will be extinguished due to the burner not...
