Does a low cost 'modern' wired alarm exist?

[scottharry]

Just wondering if a reasonably priced 'modern' remote keypad, wired alarm with internet connectivity / phone app and integrated GSM 'if all else fails' exists??

I've searched till green in the face!

Texecom premier

How much is the panel+keypad - Internet connected with GSM?

What's the app called?

 

[sparkymarka]

£300-400 for premier 24kit and either com-gsm or IP-com just look in App Store for texecom

mmmm...
Texecom Premier Elite 24 Metal CAA-0004 ~£53
Premier LCD Keypad with Prox DBC-0001 ~£52
IP-Com CEJ-0001 ~£78
Com-GSM CEG-0001 ~£125

£308 + VAT £62 = ~£370 for Panel with Remote Keyprox, IP and GSM and App - not too bad actually

Compared with 'Flex FX020 £165 + IP+GSM Coms £234 = ~£399 mark' looks like they are all price watching each other!

I do prefer the Texecom keypad to the Honeywell actually

mmm but should be a kit now with those features for ~£200 in the days of more for less - in these Raspberry PI times
NewRaspberry Pi A+ £15.50 + VAT

I think the Texe keypad perhaps looks better, but the Honeywell is easier to use keypress wise. Everyone has their opinion on this stuff...

I had hoped for a flat capacitive tablet style surface mount keypad by now, but the UK based security market is several years behind in the technology front. The Galaxy touchcenter is at least a real LCD touchscreen, but it's huge and has a horrible resistive screen.

The American market seems to be advancing faster, but their panels are still horrible due to their own standards.
