Re: Paragon Plus - mains spike

["Paul Ekins" <123pmekins@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Don't remind me, I'm still trying to rectify a direct hit on an access

every controller. Going to be a costly experience for the client as there
are 11 door controllers on the system.
Hope they are insured!!!! as I don't think they will get away with warranty
exchange!!!!!
