Ive used Aico several times and never had a problem but they are expensive and quite bulky!

Hi Folks
I've been asked to quote for installing a "Funry Smart Switch ST 2", which the customer bought from Amazon or Ebay (I forget which). Both he and I are a bit concerned about the product in terms of whether it is manufactured and tested to appropriate standards and is safe.
It is CE...
Hi All
Anyone recognise this lighting tracking system and name it?
Its in a shop and the client wants more lights but there is nothing what so ever on it giving a name!

I know that there are quite a few members still fitting plastic, but I thought it might be useful to have some reviews on 3rd Amendment CU's from the different manufacturers, only time will tell I suppose.
I'll kick it off. I fitted a couple of Wylex's offerings. Not the most prettiest of...
I'm looking to install a Secuself wireless alarm system (www.electronics-line.com , no luck looking on there) and it requires a sim card for GPRS(to link the panel to the PIR/door contacts I imagine) and text alerts. Could anyone from experience tell me if it uses a lot of data, I'm wondering...

"Hello All",
As I am definitely NOT any kind of expert in Sky TV / IR Remote Control signal distribution products this may not be the `new innovation` product that it seems to Me - but just in case it would be helpful for other Members who work on TV / Sky distribution systems I thought that I...
Would it be possible to set up a review section, where we can post reviews of different products such as workwear, tools and vans, and services such as agencies, competent person's schemes and umbrella companies?
I think it should be similar to other review sites like tripadvisor and trustpilot...

Installed three of them in my living room and all seemed fine.
After a while, one of the rocker switches went slightly wonky, but still functioned so I didn't bother to do anything with it...
Hi All,
I'm in the midst of planning the re-wire of my new garage, and amongst this there will be some garden lighting that will need to be done.
What I'm hoping to do is to have a pair of PIR's on a switch circuit to control the LED lighting I'll be installing, but I'm trying to be fancy, and...
