Eurolite Strobe Light Superstrobe 2700

MCS-700 Strobe for the BT VP1000 home alarm

Advantages: Gives you the external Strobe \ siren to compliment your BT VP1000
Disadvantages: Requires power supply so not totaly wireless

If you want to add a strobe siren to your BT VP1000, you will need this wireless siren. I added the MCS-700 to mine and was very simple, and all my friends have followed suit. I Got mine from www.bpcsystems.co.uk, seems to have more bits for use with the BT VP1000 than other places I have tried, and their prices are quite good. The only negative point is that it comes supplied with a 2 pin plug and not a 13amp plug. Not a big deal I know, you can simply put one on, but why should you have to ? Another point is the Siren "squawks" 1 squawk when arming 2 squawks when disarming. I have left mine switched on, but I know a couple have had this switched off, but this can only be done by the supplier. They have to call the alarm box by modem and remotely program it on or off, you can not do it from the panel. The siren was ...

Review of MCS-700 Strobe

Visioneer Strobe XP-200

Advantages: small - takes very little desk space
Disadvantages: single sheets only - cannot be used to scan page of a book

I have been using the Visioner Strobe XP-200 for a year . This is now an essential piece of kit for me. It takes up very little room on my computer desk and sits comfortably between keyboard and monitor. It was very easy to set up and calibrate and was in full use within fifteen minutes of unpacking. Scanning is easy and fast, just insert the page to be copied, print side up, into the scanning slot and the machine will immediately start up and feed the paper through. The scanned sheet is turned through 90 degrees and exits the scanner in a vertical(upward) direction, this allows unhampered paper feed even when the strobe xp200 is pushed right up against a monitor. The main advantage for me is the size of the machine which means I can have a scanner right in front of me all the time. This saves a lot of time as I can scan any ...

Review of Visioneer Strobe XP 200

Bend those Beamers

Advantages: Safe and efficient
Disadvantages: Designed for single use only

roads and proceed to blind and dazzle me with what feels to be full on beam headlamps. I appreciate then that notwithstanding the legal implications that doing nothing to adapt my headlamps whilst overseas is simply not an option. On previous vehicles working out which bits of the headlamp needed to be blacked out was always very simple from the prism type patterns on the headlamp glass. No longer is this the case, when you next bother to look in any detail at your lights you can find all manner of different configurations and projection systems which make our modern day lights so much more efficient. Enter then a universal headlamp deflector kit produced by Eurolites, widely sold by Halfords for example at £6.99 but available from online retailers from £4.99 and upwards. On opening the blister pack 2 silver stripey plastic sticker like ...
