Hi Can someone please help. I am thinking to purchase Visonic Powermaster 360R and having looked at the manual, it looks like it cannot be hardwired but have to use the plug-in socket for ac powersupply. Can someone confirm this is the case and whether it can be hard wired at all? Thanks LK

Hi, I am thinking to get the Visonic Powermaster 360r installed with gsm and wi fi functionality. I have been reading on their product website and it appears that their gsm module only does 2g and 3g and they no longer offer gsm modules (think it's end of their product line) Given the fact that...

Hi, I was hoping someone can help. I have a visonic powermax complete and lately, after changing the battery few weeks ago, whenever we arm the system, after a few minutes the alarm keeps going off. When we look at the report its the same sensor that goes off on which the battery was changed a...

Ahh... mines are not the only ones. They did not like we got the planning permission though and have been building the extension on our land. Their view was we could only extend as far as they have extended and they will be happy. Because they could not stop it its all the hassle I ve been...

Thank you Ronnyraygun. We do get along with them so far no issues from last 20 years as long as we agree and say yes to every thing they want and has to be done their way as they have lived all their life here in this property. They are like 2 year olds if they don't get what they want, the...

Thank you freddiemercurystwin. Good point. So who pays for the cost of the SE?

Thank you Alistairreid. Would it be structural engineer or the surveyor? I am not comfortable with surveyors as they try and milk money from situations like this and once you get the Surveyors you can't terminate their services until they decide. I am thinking I will give the neighbour the...

My objection is neighbours really gave us a hard time when they found out we are building an extension and they were hell bent only to allow to be built to the size what they built but council granted the permission and they were not happy about it. this extension is being built to accommodate...
