Looks good value to me. Might just invest in one myself.
It works OK, I take it? Any snags we should know about?
Thanks for the heads up.

There was an issue with folk hacking the wireless sensors on this type of alarm...

and you need a lot of batteries.
.. I'd stick with (old fashioned) hard wired sensors......they are a pain in the ar*e to install but......fit and forget
