Aico are already looking to exploit their gateway comms with property monitoring products, so what are you and your company looking to offer

Press the play button and the video doesn't load, therefore it isn't working

It will be interesting to see

Hi, we already selling our gateways (we call them HUBS) and they are superior to EI electronics(AICO). We have an IOS/Android app and numerous scenarios for Fire, Bulgary, Water Flooding incidents, Furthermore we have smart home capabilities, like lighting controls, and many more.

Life quality sensors are on the way. And the only thing we missing right now is the Mains Heat detector (bs5446-2) and Mains Smoke detector. And I don't want to be as already mentioned above, the kind of company that doesn't test the equipment before producing the damn thing. That's why I'm here discussing all this with you.

Needless to say that I'm already very thankful for your inputs and insights.

Could you post a link to your website showing details of the hubs you are currently selling. Thanks.

It is one of the oddities in the UK regs that 1mm is only permitted for fixed wiring if it is for lightning. 1.5mm is the minimum for "power".

Now you can say the fire alarms are being mains powered, so need to have 1.5mm (for reasons nobody has quite explained) as a dedicated supply, even if from a 6A MCB. However, often they are permitted to be powered from a lighting circuit since people will notice and presumably fix any trip of that supply, which of course is probably done all in 1mm!

Although bizarrely an argument can be made for 0.75mm flex!

If you go bigger than 0.75mm then your pendants dangle in a wonky manner. Which nobody wants

You might want a doctor to have a look at that @DPG

My Mrs sometimes says it needs to be thicker. Although why she's interested in pendant flex size i don't know.
