Pet friendly PIR's

[slider09]

Hi,

Looking to get a couple of pet friendly PIR for the kitchen. Dog is only small, probably around 7-8 kg.
Doing a search seems to bring up the following quite regularly:

Texecom 3D Petwise
Bosch Blue Line PIR

Looking on here there was a post from several years ago (2011 I think), that swayed more towards the Bosch over the Texecom. Has anything changed in the last 4 years, are Bosch the preferred choice over Texecom?

Not too bothered about cost, only want two.

Current alarm is a Texecom Veritas R8, assuming mixing Bosch with a Texecom control panel won't cause any issues? Current PIR's are connected with 6 core cable.

Any advice would be welcome.

Thanks

Blue Line, no question

I tried the cheaper Bosch Blue Line ones (about £10 IIRC) but the cat still occasionally set the alarm off, then changed to the expensive Bosch Blue Line ones (£26 IIRC) and haven't had any false alarms since.

Edit...these are the expensive ones which the cat hasn't triggered (not as expensive as I recalled tho)...
