Re: Half Price BT Home Monitor VP1000 - Ends Midnight

[Mal Lansell <mal@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Well the Powermax has a PGM output that can drive a relay. It can be
triggered by the keyfob, or by the alarm state etc.
There's no mention of it in the BT docs, but the VP1000 is aimed at self
installers, so it may just be covered up or ignored - I'll not know for
sure until the thing turns up and I've had a play!

Bit of a bummer on the Savastore price, but the BT deal did have free
shipping, so there probably won't be much of a difference in the end.
Looking around, there are a lot of places selling it for £100 (even PC
World).  I guess it's just another hollow offer from BT - should have
known better!
