I've got an Omnipro II and I'm looking for a monitoring company. I've zeroed in on Alarm Relay. They offer, after equipment purchase, for $15.95/mo, monitoring using a device they call "ip bat cdma/ip dual path alarm transmitter communicator", which includes any cellular charges. It communicates with the central station, and has email and texting ability.
It wires into the panel and has an Ethernet connection, which seems redundant since I can already remotely access with Haiku via internet.
If you back out the cost of the standard land line monitoring @ $8.95/mo, that leaves $7/mo for cell charges. Seems like a good deal, price wise, but I feel the Omnipro II already has that function built in, aside from the cellular backup.
I understand that HAI has come out with an email/texting add on board.
Is anyone here using the HAI email/text hardware with a monitoring service, that competes with the above described?
