no I ment he tried to fill me full of lies about his system and why it's better then any other system ... Told me his GSM unit could not be blocked as its specially designed for them.. Wireless alarms are no good because the batteries constantly need changing every couple of months and they do nothing but false alarm . They also don't install inertia ( shock sensors ) on windows as they false alarm

Not to be offensive but I would consider that type of alarm to be a toy . Very limited functionality . It's a DIY alarm that can be purchased in B&Q and costs nothing to thw overcharged price he probably charged you . He's currently charging around €1000 to install these alarms throughout Newbridge @ € 25 a week .
Those alarms arent able to anaylise shock sensors . So your window can be smashed and the alarm won't sound

I've had mine 3 years though and never had to change the battery . It's never false alarmed on me either . I think he says it has a back up battery , I know when the electricity goes off it has a back up system , true about the shock sensors , i noticed i can walk walk in my hall door and stand in the hallway for nearly 60 secs before it starts to beep . Too long !

That would be the entry time being set to long .. You can get the manual online off that website I posted a link to . Most likely an aritech quick bridge was used

Unfortunately no as those panels do not have built in zone analysers . So shock sensors won't work with them . I don't think those alarms are up to standards either

Shock sensors can be put on any system by using an analyser board. All wholesalers sell them.

The honeywell accenta is a very basic but reliable alarm system, sure it's only a grade 1 but thats only down to the capacity of the log iirc.
You will not buy it in B&Q and shock sensors like vipers or impaqs can be fitted as normal, these sensors are extremely reliable.
Angle has been around for a long time and his business model obviously works

But the panel won't show gross and pulse on the event of an alarm

TB , Either back up your claims that this is not up to standards or retract your comments.
Likewise present link or proof showing these are on sale in B and Q or stop claiming it.
