    Its still shit that they don't provide push notifications for free once the alarm is triggered - Boundary should just do a free package and a separate police response package.

    Great video as always. Surprised you've gone for wireless over a wired system given most burglars carry a frequency jammer in their pocket and can just walk in freely without alarm going off. Personally i'll stick to wired in the same way as CCTV cameras. Wireless install is a breeze, but not much help when you come back to an empty house. What are Boundary and others doing to combat jamming?

    Could you have hard wired the hub into another socket to remove the cable altogether?

    No as the plug is a transformer so cutting the plug off and hard wiring it into a socket will blow fuck out of the hub.

    I was wondering about this too. According to the website the power connector is usb C. So I reckon you could rig something together. Maybe a recessed box with a usb socket installed behind the control panel.

    Only if they keep the server plugged in and will likely stop working when android and IOS require updates. Seems the cellular back up has stopped as they will need to pay somebody for that. System is as good as dead if they don’t get taken over.

    Sorry but alarms are a waste of time and money. The alarm going off needs neighbours to do something. They wont and even if they call the police, they will not turn up. Even if you pay for a monitored alarm, good luck with anything apart from a call to say your alarm is going off!
