How do you know it is "a small adjustment" ?
How do you know it isn't a small adjustment? Maybe the OP should try YG3's advice before making all sorts of speculations about sudden interference from neighbours
often its the simple things that go wrong isn't it
what I consider trolling is the changing batteries remark, which is a cheap and ignorant shot. How many devices use batteries that they rely on?
Cars, mobile phones both are used for critical situations perhaps we should have wired ones!
As you say wired alarms are also subject to failure perhaps the user isn't aware of that and thinks he is protected when he isn't what then same scenario isn't it?
As for shortcomings ALL systems have them wired included, very expensive to install, expensive to repair, often linked to costly management contracts,not infallible.On top of that never yet seen any verifiable proof that they stop more burglaries than wireless or even dummy boxes with flashing lights
I think the constant sarcasm whenever someone mentions a wireless system is that the installers of wired ones see ANOTHER lost sale, so they have to denigrate them to feel superior.
Installing a wireless system is pretty easy and doesn't require half your house getting stripped out and redecorated. It is CONSIDERABLY cheaper and likely for the average person more than adequate for the job
