Default sporadic low pressure warning mode on Triton Shower?

PS:

The Triton 'filter' is just a small thimble-shaped 'bundle' or
brass-coloured wire held within the 15mm shower inlet fitting. Rather
like a small version of those those stainless steel 'brillo pads' that
you put inside the kettle to attract scale.

Triton charge a fortune for these and I'd like to source an alternative.
However I've no idea what they might be called. Any suggestions?

Thanks

Why not drop it in some descaler?

The water pressure may be low in the mornings for reasons beyond your
control. Is the show significantly above street level?
Are you at the top of a sloping street?

It does sound marginal maybe the sensor is down on the shower. Is it
possible to hold you thumb/finger over the end of a MAINS tap?
