    Butt (UY) Connectors In Alarm

    That’s what I was going to do but as I mentioned, the existing alarm is in a very cramped area so my concern is getting the wires in so that they stay put while I tighten the screws.

The alarm is situated in a very cramped area so I am concerned about transferring the wires successfully. What I was thinking was could I prewire the panel and expander with a short piece of wire on...

    Cleaning Glued LVT

    Tenda Access points, any good?

    If you mean the mesh Wi-Fi system then they are rubbish. I bought a set but had to reboot them everyday so got rid.

    Veritas R8 - Replace PIR's (And Maybe Panel)

    Hi I have a Veritas R8 alarm panel which was fitted over 20 years ago and I would like to replace the PIR's with pet friendly ones. The old PIR's have the standard 6 wires as do the new ones. Is it a straight forward swap or will I need to do any programming to the panel? My second...

    Veritas R8 Replacement (Maybe)

    Veritas R8 Replacement (Maybe)

    Hello I have a Veritas R8 alarm panel fitted about 19 years ago by an installer who is no longer in business and I don't know the engineer code. I considered resetting the panel but saw that the installer may have locked the code so I thought I may replace the panel with the a newer version...
