[QUOTE="BryanDP, post: 3044735, member: 1111"] In the last three months I have installed five Honeywell Total Connect security systems at properties owned by myself and my family. In doing so I have learned a LOT about installing and programming these systems and getting set up for self-monitoring via smartphone app for as little as $13 month. Before embarking on this massive DIY project I got several quotes for these systems which would have cost me considerably more up-front for the install and $40-50 per month monitoring on a three year contract. In the process I came to the realization that alarm companies are way overpriced and while this stuff isn't exactly easy to do it is possible. Over the next 10 years I will have saved myself literally thousands of dollars, plus I now know the ins and outs of my alarm if something goes wrong and won't have to pay a service call for a repair. I mention this here because I have received a lot of assistance over the years with gun and other types of questions and just wanted to add my new knowledge to the collective brain trust that is OSA. Let me know if you have any questions! [/QUOTE]
