Hi John ,

Bear in mind at all times 'Open Protocol' you have always room to manoeuvre if you go down this route.

Some people like it.... A lot don't !!

Personally I don't like the panels... As said, find a nice "open protocol" eg Apollo or Hochiki, and choose a panel eg Kentec, Haes, Advanced, Morley etc. You will always be able to get support and spares.
