Should Scottish Government delay new smoke detector law

[baldelectrician]

Was contacted by a local paper last week and asked about the Scottish Government smoke alarm requirements coming in on February.

Was mentioned in an article (and even had my good looks used to enhance sales ), although they spelled my name wrong (Stewart McLintock)

@littlespark are you suggesting my pricing is too high?

No no…. Just that I’ve got the heat detectors, and no one else does apparently.

Can’t blame me for trying

Don't blame you in the slightest, it was an honest question, I have modified my "For Sale" to include offers. but looking around I can't see the SmartLink module's model Ei3000MRF for less than £25.00, the Ei3028 for less than £43.00 and the Ei3024 for less than £32.00, so add any one of those detectors to the value of the SmartLink and the Ei3024 is £57 for the Ei3028"s are £68.00 which comes too £261.00 so at £200.00 not a bad saving I thought.

Ones out of date though…..

None of them are out of date, just the Ei3024 has only nine years left on its replacement advice, I don't call that out of date.

 

[littlespark]

I’m just being pedantic…. What I meant was it doesn’t have the full 10 years left on it.

But that is why the dates are printed on removable stickers, right?
