I will be installing a security system in our new house and I am torn about which system to get, the elk M1 or the omnipro?
I will be automating the house in the future, but right now I don't have the time and I just want to get the security and fire portion in.
I think it will need about 5 door contacts, 3 motion detectors and a few wired screens. I will also be doing the smokes. I will be having a company monitor the system and I will also be installing an Acti IP camera system.
I am pretty good with this type of stuff as I have set up access control systems, IP camera systems, commercial HVAC controls, etc so it doesn't have to be "user" friendly. Also cost is not so much of an issue.
Any thoughts are appreciated and I am open to other systems as well. At the end, it probably doesn't matter too much, because they both are good and I am guessing most comments are going to attest to that, but any feedback is welcomed.
