Well, in cleaning up and making room for the two new compact high speed CNC machines that arrived yesterday I am doing some cleaning up. Never had Ji m Rojas' inventory, but I just half filled my dumpster with old panels. Lo ts of old XL2-S/G/P/T panels went in there. Also several XL31 panels. Tho se were my work horse for middle size semi custom homes for years until FBI I sold out to Ademco. Even threw away a few XL4s. Never had a failure wit h one of those. There was still one running a whole school until they tore the school down and rebuilt it a couple years ago. Still have another one in another school. There was a perfectly functional SK Access 2000 with r eaders and cards. Gone. Some early Caddx NX8s. Lots of Ademco pulls. On es I could just convert. (Most I could convert.)
Oh, and misc panels I yanked and saved just for parts... There was a pile of those, and that's not counting the panel boxes I saved for project boxes . Man what a pile.
I still haven't brought myself to start pitching the "newer" stuff.
I'm excited to have that space back again.
Now to get into my stacks of sound, phone, and network equipment.
I thought about selling a lot of it off, but I decided that I don't want an other year of providing support for it. Especially the used stuff. What's in the dumpster is staying in the dumpster.
There are a few things I'll ebay off, but nothing I have to stand behind. Its all Buyer Beware, but nothing that is likely to turn out to be a brick.
I'm keeping all my camera stock, and a lot of current alarm parts. Why hir e somebody to do what I can do for myself. Most of the older cameras aren' t worth much retail anyway with the plummet in the price and price to specs ratio in the last decade. Nice thing for guys staying int he business is if they stay up on it they can still make money. Just have to change brand s and lines every year or so to have the best price/options to work with.
