No. I am saying that wireless systems are ****.


You're just envious because no-one's paid you to fit a wireless doorbell!


By nature no wireless system is going to be as reliable as a cabled one.
There is obviously a point in having a cordless drill. Wireless
microphone, etc if it has to be mobile.


But a door bell or entry system? Only reason to fit that is laziness. ;-)


It depends on how far from the front door you want the ringer. Yes, I
could run cables to our respective studies and have an extension lead to
take a bell into the garden, but wireless is so much easier. My Friedland
set-up: 1 bell, 2 mains receivers and one battery receiver has worked well
for many years.
