Interesting - thanks for the reply. Have got the external siren connected, but not mounted outside yet. Will have to remember to remove the batteries before I start wiring it up or fiddling with the connection. Out of curiosity, what modification did you make to the reed switch, and what model / price is your glass breakage sensor. I didn't see anything like this in the Arlec range, so I'm assuming you bought it somewhere else. Also, how have you found the operation of the unit so far? Any issues, false alarms or other heads-ups you can warn me about?
