Re: http://www.instantunlocker.com/
With boards costing as little as $50, how can this possibly give you
your money's worth the first time out...or the tenth time out for that
matter. As Jim says, he has spent significant money for the equipment
necessary to do most any board made. I too have spent thousands of
dollars to do just DSC and Paradox, and probably Ademco if I cared to
spend the time. It is not as easy as plugging in a gizmo and setting
the board's installer code back. If it were that simple, I would buy
the thing myself !! A great many of the boards that I unlock have been
sabotaged by an irate installer, with the panel locked, and the board
in alarm, so this device won't do the job. And the boards that are
actually the most valuable to unlock are the older DSC boards that are
no longer available (1550, 2550, 3000)
Since it is only available to professionals in the trade, it does
nothing for the many end users who buy a home and find they have a
locked board. And since most alarmco's don't want to bother with any
alarm that isn't monitored, that still leaves many people out.
However, to give credit where credit is due (or may be due), it will be
worth watching to see if this gizmo catches on, or is simply a one shot
wonder..
I too very much agree with the poster who is amazed that any one would
take the time to develop a product with such a limited vertical market
