We have a set of Byron SD86 wireless doorbell chimes and the bellpush
is in need of replacement. The SD86 model appears to have been
airbrushed out of history - can't find any mention on Byron's web
site, and B&Q only sell SX and TX models - does anyone know of
anything compatible with the SD range, or have we got to buy a new set
- in which case I'll buy something else from somewhere else, as long
as it has a longer potential lifespan

Friedland have a range of wireless systems which you can get at the
merchants. Also with theirs you can install the electronic push inside
the house and connect bell wire to a standard external push. They also
have mains/battery option on the receivers. I have mine wired through
timers so the system can be turned off at night. I think they do 2
ranges of wireless and the cheapo version doesn't have those two
features.

.... and also have a policy of changing the design and dropping support for
the previous, incompatible, versions :-(

Am I reading this right - you have a timer to turn your doorbell off at
night??? Why?

Hmmm, quite like the idea of light-up notifiers triggered by timer...
- "Please wait" during sensible hours
- "Go away" during unsensible hours

My Headmaster at junior school had something very similar on his
study door. Must have been about 1960.

Byron CS responded quickly when I asked a question of them.
