Hi,
do you have some experience with fire/smoke alarms that would have an option for part of install to be linked up with cable, and part by radio bases?

alarm----cable----alarm----cable-----wireless alarm (radio link) wireless alarm (radio link) wireless alarm...

Hi, anyone got any idea on pricing and a supplier for a wireless contactor. Basically I need to disconnect the pv on loss of grid prior to the generator kicking in. Unfortunately i'm unable to connect on the grid side of the generator set without digging up a trench.
Thanks.
I know there are various available, but I'm looking for a recommendation for a reasonably priced one, simple 1 gang to switch a kitchen light. I'd priced for moving a switch (needed due to a door being rehung to the opposite hand) but now find the proposed cable route is a no go. My mistake, so...
Hi. I've joined this forum because I was very alarmed (excuse the pun) by the quotes from so called specialist companies in fitting fire alarms. Obviously they have big corporate profits to make, but where is the man who actually does the work to be contacted. I need to fit a wireless system and...

Are any of the wireless ones to be recommended? All I've ever heard of them is negative, but a school I do work for needs one to cover one door and it would be the simplest solution.
They have the usual entry system with comms and coded keys, but the need a bell/buzzer for one door. It's for an...
Hello all,
Sorry for jumping in out of nowhere, I do plan to use the forum a bit more in the future as I don't want to just "take" knowledge without giving.

Hopefully someone may have come across something like this.

I bought the Lenovo Ideapad Z410 yesterday and was excited to try it out, however one thing i noticed off the bat was the poor WiFi performance on the otherwise flawless laptop. At times it becomes weak, and suddenly disconnects, leaving me with the "Limited Connectivity" sign.
Hello Chaps

I'm looking to add a wireless room stat to my own heating system at home. I'd prefer to keep the hard wired clock, but add a wireless thermostat as we are just using the temp control on the boiler ATM and I don't like it. I'm just wondering if I could wire the RF receiver for the stat, after the...

Hi there. I've not come across this before and I'm sure it's probably something simple but I thought I'd check here to be sure, I have to connect a wireless stat, pump and a valve, but the plumber tells me it's just doing the heating so it's sort of the same as a combi system.
How would I go...
