Re: Looking to purchase alarm system - suggestions?



I had one yesterday in an old radx 2212 (iti xmtters) using those silly =
1/2 AA 3.6 lithiums. Original owner never changed them, never called us, =
then sold the house, new owner didn't want to invest in new batteries on =
friday...guess what? he got to buy 4 from radio-shaft at 14.95 each on =
saturday. He coulda bought them from me on friday for a lot less...but =
