    I rarely have time Peter, but I do click the link every now and again.

    Basically, like the Olympic Timer in this thread, if it's going to take longer than about 10mS (length of time to down half a cup of coffee), then no.

    Wow!, Welcome back Melanie. I thought you transferred to another forum.
    Just like what you said, I too rarely do replies however I check and read the mails of those senders that makes impact in this forum and you are one on them.

    Nice to hear from you again.

    Thanks,
    Nesty

    Default Hmm. Ok then Mel. So now aimed at anyone in the manufacturing sector....

    Since 1973, (old, aint I?) I have been in the security industry. The greater majority concentrating on alarms in Banks.
    Even today I find that almost all alarms can be defeated with a couple of bucks worth of components. (which I won't go into here)
    Just how does one find and interest a manufacturer to look at a high security module, capable of adding to virtually ANY alarm panel which will go a long way to overcoming the above mentioned shortcomings of existing systems. I am not sure if there is anyone out there with a face I can trust (except for Mel, of course (suck, suck)) who may be in a position to perhaps look at / evaluate this device without me having to worry about it being knocked off, something I have experienced before.

    I would be happy to discuss my thoughts, privately off forum with someone who may be interested.

    Regards and thanks.

    Hi Peter,

    I am in the alarm industry with 32 years behind me. I design and manufacture several devices for my clients. I am interested in whatever it is you have. But I must ask you first, does your area use cellular backup systems? Or do you have access to internet alarm transmission devices? The internet seems to be the big thing up here.

    If you want PM me and we can talk more. [email protected]
