Pleased I'm not the only one thinking the same thing. :D

That's great so it should cost around £100 - £125 for a gas safe installer to connected it up. I personally, after reading comments will not take the offer of the delivery bloke doing the job, as someone else said, they just want to dump it and run. Hope this thread is of help to people with...

That's fine, but isn't an answer to my question. Simple enough, I haven't got the money for someone to come out and say yes its a gas pipe, you can have a gas cooker and that will be £100 plus £50 call out please. I have a cooker, I have a gas pipe, was in use the 30 years ago I have lived here...

One last question. Does anybody know how much a gas safe installer would charge to install the gas bayonet adaptor and connect to cooker? Just as an idea before I look for someone. All dimensions seem fine for this dual fuel cooker I want. Got plenty of room for the gas hose to be behind the...

Thanks for all the replies. Order Cancelled. Can I just ask; the gas pipe with flange plug on sticks out of the wall behind the now removed electric cooker is about 30cms from the floor. What should I look out for in buying a dual fuel cooker? I'm reading about shaded areas in the manuals where...

Could you elaborate on that? I take it you mean the £80 I've wasted is for someone to just push, twist and go?

I have a new dual fuel cooker coming next week and I paid the extra £80 to have it connected by a gas safe installer when it is delivered. (littlewood's catalog) The gas pipe hardly sticks out of the wall and has one of those 1/2 flange plugs on it. All the installer says is they will only...

Unbelievably I am still having trouble with the magnetic contacts on what is a small shed door. I have the heavy duty ones "CQR SC550" as suggested in an above reply to see if that would stop the false alarms. I had the contact omitted for the rest of winter until late spring and ever since it...

Thanks for the above info, main worry was buying too cheap. But looking at more expensive ones online and they look identical to the cheap maplin ones. Can't find any branded ones. Its happened to me before on an outbuilding, replaced then fine for a couple of years then same problem. Then...

Magnetic Contacts. Plain white, standard surface mount, cater for four wires, but only use two just for trigger. One set on one building, other on different system in another building. After 3 years with no alarms, get false alarms "door", happens again, then again. No wind, no door...

They look just the job, but unfortunately FM Electronics only deal with trade.

I think thats going to be abit to complicated for me to setup. I was really hoping to just find a wired to wireless transmitter and a wireless bell box to receive the signal.

Would I need to get two of them, one for transmitting and one for receiving. Would it be simple enough to connect upto the trigger on the control panel, and the other end a sounder or strobe? Many thanks

I haven't got a fixed line, so I thought of a gsm dialler but they are so expensive. Yeah its not far, but with the windows closed at night you don't hear the siren from the otherside of the house. I have tried looking into a wired/wireless transmitter but they only add wireless sensors to...

I've got a wired Accenta Gen4 setup and would like to add a sounder or audible alert speaker 30 metres (open air) away in the main residence. To notify me the alarm is sounding in that building, even with the loudest of bell boxes it can sometimes not be heard with fans etc going. :| Any...

Can additional strobes be added to my system or will this interfere with the bell box strobe? I've got the Accenta/Optima Gen4 with a Lynteck/Midas Bell Box and I've added a standalone strobe and connected it to the +/- strobe terminals in the control panel. However the bell box is...

Checked the trigger voltage and its fine, the part that started to heat up and smoke was a transformer and some sort of resistor? Its an open circiut board, and on its reverse was a maze of cobwebs and insects. Any ideas?

Thank you for your replies. I did wonder whether it would be for the SAB mode. Decided I will go with that model as it is alot smaller than traditional bell boxes and ideal for a smaller building. I would have replaced the reson8 with another, it had given 3 years of service, but after...

I've got the Accenta Gen 4 with LCD keypad, I had a Reson8 Bell box connected for the past 3 years that suddenly started to smoke on a routine test. I'm looking at a new Bell Box, and as its for a small building I would like to replace the reson8 with the Lynteck LY65-016-57 midas low profile...
