Managed to source a 2nd hand set of excellent condition wolfs as really wanted a set.
However, same as post 10, i ended up being given another receiver by wolf (still had alot of warranty). I had a couple of issues, but the biggest was the syncing of alarm to receiver, would be out for several seconds.
I also felt they were far too complicated for what you needed them for. I Ended up selling them on.

Just received my 3 x nash cork scopes.
Used to duplon but fancied a change. Would you leave on plastic or remove ? If removed, how do you keep the cork clean (if possible)?

I'm definitely no expert, but just worked on a doer upper house.
I flooded every room with more power sockets than needed, definitely don't regret it. i also ran Cat6 through out for cabled internet (if needed) also ran Cat6 for CCTV. Whilst he was at it also ran power cable to front of house ready for electric car (which may happen in future).

Went to USA in July to meet brother in law etc.
Like you , Vodafone UK wanted stupid amount of money for 3 users for 2 weeks...around £250.
I went into a T-Mobile or Verizon store (Think Verizon) in Minneapolis and bought 3 PAYG sims. Had a quick look online but it seems to only cater for monthly deals. Anyhow, think i paid around £45 or £50 (need to add tax to cost) each for i think 10gb each. Personally i like to go in there and find out what im getting and make sure it works whilst in there, than buying from Walmart etc.
I had no problem with it and visited Minneapolis / Wisconsin and New York.
Hope that helps
