New DSC 1864 model

Apr 30, 2006 5 Replies

I did see a post from 4/12 that people had heard of a new DSC line.



Any further details on this? Any advanced features?



I'm looking at a new alarm and considering the DSC 864 (lowest choice right now) and the Caddx NX-8E and the Elk-M1EZ8.



Yes, this will be a DIY install, and yes, with my background I am more than capable of the install.



Hopefully some of you will post pertinent data instead of the constant flame wars.

I've looked through the programming of the 1616 and 1832 and they don't seem to have any major feature upgrades that I can tell

Elk hands down.... waaaaaay more fun and firmware upgradeable etc If you are a tinkerer and I suspect you are, cough up extra dollars for the M1G

I hope they are not using the Dealers to test and find the faults in the "new and improved" equipment.

Not they have done that in the past.

Every company does that, manufacturers can test all they want but they will never find every bug in a given system.

That's one reason to always wait 6 months or more before buying into new stuff whether it be alarm stuff or software...or whatever!

Man, I usta jump on the bandwagon as soon as new stuff got released...learned my lesson...and earned my nick of CRASH (from beta testing software :-)
