    Seems a bit misguided. If you already have wired sensors that work you can upgrade the panel to add the smart home integration features, cellular backup, etc. Less batteries is always a good thing.

    • @bigmoney4685
      @bigmoney4685 4 месяца назад

      Yes if you have a wired alarm system update the control panel to smart and also a louder bell box outside. Also have vibration sensors on doors and windows therefore the alarm is activated before the intruder enters the home these clowns going on about wireless alarms they are easier to jam the signals.

  • @TENTHIRTYONE
    @TENTHIRTYONE 3 года назад +13

    The automatic disarm on door unlock is a bad idea. If someone forces you into your home, you’ve just given up any chance of someone being notified as your system disarmed itself.

    • @bmanwpg
      @bmanwpg 3 года назад +5

      Yeah, no duress mechanism. Also the issue with these types of systems where they are all integrated into the keypad.. All a burglar needs to do is destroy that keypad when they enter and they've disabled the entire system. Much better to have a system where the control board is located somewhere that takes time to get to (utility room).

    Plungers suck because they stick closed in winter or just after time. Surface mount contacts are better, and easier to change batteries. That system is obsolete now. INTERLOGIX is not making the Simon system anymore or any system for that matter. Go DSC, 2gig, or Qolsys
