    Premia 9 Alarm Control

    So I'm looking for a control panel other than the keypad? Obvious place would be in the garage, as the keypad is on the hall/garage wall, or would it be elsewhere? There's no room or space for a battery in the keypad

    Premia 9 Alarm Control

    Last night, I got a battery warning on my Premia 9 control. Read through the forum...low or worn out battery, check type etc and replace....sounds easy so far. Thing is, I can't find the battery! Its not in the control unit or internal sounder box, so I'm guessing it MUST be up in the Bell...

    Programmable Room Thermostat

    I fitted a PRT Heatmiser recently, and I'm very pleased with the unit. I read about cycling, and set a 5 minuite delay while setting up. It is indeed set at zero when supplied.

    Thanx for the Halfords spray suggestion... After a quick test to ensure they were working, they were firstly wiped off with white spirit to remove any polish. Took 3 hours to mask up properly, then a light rubbing down with scotchbrite to key the surface. Then another clean with white...

    HI FI Speaker repainting

    Maybe just a good clean with white spirit then emulsion maybe? I thought about Halfords spray myself. Guess it might be a better option as I'm masking them up anyway. Just thought a small roller would be less messy, and avoid overspray problems
