Hi all
I need to install an alarm in my new place and I have decided on the Honeywell galaxy flex 20. It's quality that I'm after and I want to be able to control it via my phone or home automation system. (I'm away I will have to write something to get that to work)
I have done general alarm work for myself before. Removing the old one for a start and also moving my works alarm so am pretty confident I can install one of these.
My only problem is knowing what to buy to make sure it all works together.
Firstly the flex 20 with MK8 Keypad
Then I require a battery for this, However I don't know if I need a special one or if they are all the same.
I require 8 wired PIR's to start with. (Wireless in the future) Again, I guess it's good to stick with Honeywell ones but there seems to be so many different types. What basic one but quality do I require? I don't want the white plastic to go yellow in a few years time because it's cheap.
The good news is that the external sounder looks like a quality item already so no need to change that.
I will be working with my electrician to install as he has done many before and put in all new 8 core cable ready for it all.
Thanks all
Mat
