This is the 3rd system I've had in my house. I replaced a commercial alarm system after repeated false triggers got the police just a little upset. In 3 years, this unit has NEVER false triggered, and sometimes I'm away for 3 months straight. Well worth the investment!

I have previously reviewed this Elk M1 Gold system and I have an update a year later. This is an outstanding unit! It is well thought out. You can protect your home inside or outside. Heat sensors in the attic can detect fire. Water spill sensors can telephone you if your toilet leaks or even your washing machine leaks. While it is easy for a beginner to install you can learn into it. This means that if you want to learn about the heat sensors in the attic you can hook in a couple and have your attic protected from fire. Water sensors around the house will protect against leaking toilets, washing machines, ice makers, or any gizmo using water. Since the Elk M1 Gold sensor is programable by your home computer using a windows like enviroment. You can get a long RS232 cable at HomeSecurity Stores. This unit is expandable up to dozens and dozens of zones. With an Uplink AnyNet you still have protection if your power fails. Always check your battery size! Are you sure a four amp hour battery is enough to protect your home if the streets are frozen over and you can't actually get home quickly? Make sure your battery is big enough. HomeSecurityStore can order you bigger batteries from their vendors if you ask about them. I also bought a ELK-P412K. This is an add on power supply with extra back up battery. I added six sirens inside the house and two voice modules. Yes, they talk to you! I added three sirens in the garage. All sirens are the maximum loudness they let you have. Adding extras instills great panic in theives because it is so loud you really can't think. To power these extra sirens and voice modules you must have this power supply. HomeSecurityStore ordered it direct from the factory for me.They can get any item from Elk Products that you want ordered for you, by HomeSecurityStore. Expander Boards, big or giant batteries, glass break sensors and much more. This tech service it the best in the industry and nobody comes even close to them. I also bought the phone line surge protector.
