Here's the facts:

1. 35$ each is not bad

2. they could also charge you a service call 75$ or more

3. it's quite a bit more than hooking up "two wires"

    	wiring, testing, programming, finding all the bugs that always
creep in

4. At a guess you got the typical ADT deal.they expect to make their
money from monitoring your system. that's why you get the "discount
deal"

5. If you want more zones, they charge like they are doing a new deal
with out the discount deal.

6. with that many new zones there should be zone expaznders added to
your system also. guess what? they cost money too.




You got took in by something that was too good to be true. now you have
to acept their deal or live with what you have.  Or buy out your
contract. guess how much that will cost.
