Basically, I'm looking to fit a light of some kind (large flashing LED/strobe light) to my existing alarm. NOT to go off when the alarm sounds due to an intruder, but instead to flash when the alarm is just SET.
I need it for an elderly relative who is hard of hearing, so that when he returns home he can see the light is flashing and that the alarm has been set (so he can then punch his code in).
It would also be useful for me as the alarm is set at night but there is no way of telling this - apart from walking into a room and triggering the thing!
I've heard that it is possible just to attach a light-box of some kind to one of the alarm panels and take the power from there.
Does anyone have any ideas, or have come across this type of thing before? Cheers, J
