    Texecom Premier Part set question

    Hello all, just wanted to find out whether the texecom premier 88 panel has the option of setting off only the internal sounder if the alarm goes off in a part set. I don't wish the external sounder to sound in a part set, i.e when I'm sleeping upstairs with downstairs armed. I've briefly...

    Checking Standby Battery for Charge Rates

    Hello, & good evening I'm just curious about how a standby battery in a control panel is checked for its charge rate. Do you need a special tester to do this? How can you tell that a battery is still in good condition, after say 3 years and minimal mains power disruption. The DVM can only...

    Qn about Elmdene HS500 External Sounder

    yep they are a little disco, fill up the whole lens. The new Risco lumins looks cool, but I read a review where they tested it against a pyronix deltabell Plus, and its not as bright as the delatbell. Also again, sourcing one is a little tricky! I like elmdene products, I'm gonna ring them...

    Yeh I know alarm is a big fan of the rapier, he has recommended it on here a few times & I don't blame him! Its a top notch unit but for a price of a decent control panel :shock:

    Good evening, I am looking for some advice regarding the Elmdene HS500 external sounder (Hexagonal shaped one). Is this a good bellbox to fit? What colour are the flashing LEDs? Also are they as bright as those found on the Gardtec Novagard 20 models? :wink: It does not seem to have a...

    Dodgy Panic Alarm Button

    Hello europlex,if you mean leaf type means two metal leafs that touch together, then yes. As you suggested I tried tightening the red plastic pusher but still no luck. I think the problem lies within the leaf mechanism itself. If its too far apart, then it registers tamper even if closed, too...
