They have a new head of marketing, his name is Baldrick and he has a cunning plan. Sell direct to the consumer to maximise margins allowing them to take old models in px to push sales volume of the latest model then when sales taper off close down and retire to the sunshine.

As of the WEEE directive dispose of them in the correct manner.

As I've said before in this thread you can't harvest the old electronic components as they are probably obsolete / too old etc etc.

With the age of delks it's like thinking can I put those bits ifrom my CRT TV into an OLED...no !
I work in electronic design, you have to redesign products every few years due to technological advances and component obsolescence...

The challenge is if you have an alarm that is too old to fix / replace you'll have to contend with eBay which will only get more expensive.

Each to their own.

Yes no way Delkim would take parts out of broken alarms to make working ones, even if they were of the same type.
And I can't see them selling on old alarms to someone else, they'd get next to nothing for them, the only person to make any money is the person who takes them on and resells them, and why would Delkim want a load of old units flooding the market when they are trying to sell new ones?

I doubt Delkim will keep spares for the TXI+, you will send in your faulty unit in and they will replace will a brand new alarm until the TXI+ is obsolete.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
