New Infinity ID2 firmware: changeable access codes, double-knock I/O and faster walk tests
Zeta’s Infinity ID2 panels now ship with new firmware (Panel: 1.U / Loop: 0.P) and three changes installers have asked for: access codes you can change, a double-knock mode for input/output (I/O) modules, and a walk test that covers every zone in one pass. None of these changes alters how you wire or address an […]
Upgrading an older VoCALL system? The wiring may already be in place
An older VoCALL emergency voice communication system may have served a building well for years. But when a panel needs replacing or a site is being refurbished, finding a practical route forward can be difficult. Nobody wants an EVC upgrade to mean reopening walls and running new cable throughout the building. That’s the problem Vox […]
Amendment 4 is live. Are your cable clips still up to the job?
A good moment to look at your clips Amendment 4 to the Wiring Regulations took effect on 15/10/2026. It’s now the only version of BS 7671 that counts, so every new job and every certificate you sign from here on is measured against it. Most of the attention has gone on the big new chapters. […]
AirSense MiniLaser: single-zone aspirating detection built on the ModuLaser platform
Not every job that needs aspirating detection needs a multi-zone system. A server room, lift shaft, archive store or small clean room often calls for one detector, one pipe run and a budget that will not stretch to a full multi-channel system. The AirSense MiniLaser from Kidde Global Solutions is built for exactly that gap: […]
Huvo Winter 2026 Padel Open: Request your place at our first trade tournament
Most of our conversations with you happen over the phone or by email: talking through a fire design, checking compatibility on a panel, or making sure the right kit lands on site in time for your next install. On Friday 11th December 2026, we’d like to swap the headset for a padel racket. The Huvo […]
Photograph a call point, get the right reset key: Huvo’s new app is in beta
Huvo is building its own mobile app. The first feature, Call Point ID, identifies a manual call point from a photo and shows you the reset key and cover that fit it, with live stock and a link to order. We’re looking for installers to trial it before launch. The site you’ve never seen before […]
Changes to Huvo delivery charges, and a new £4.75 DPD Pickup service
From today, 23rd September, Huvo’s delivery charges are changing. Two of them are going up, and we’d rather tell you plainly than let you find out at checkout. But there’s also a new option that costs less than anything we’ve offered before – and for a lot of installs it will be more useful than […]
Smarter CCTV networking: meet the new Ruijie Reyee range at Huvo
An IP camera is only as reliable as the network sitting behind it. On a straightforward installation, that side of the job can be fairly simple. Add more cameras, longer cable runs, multiple buildings or higher-bandwidth devices, though, and the switches and network links quickly become just as important as the equipment hanging on the […]
SmartConnect: the single-loop addressable panel with networking and cloud access built in
Speccing a single-loop addressable panel usually means a familiar trade-off. The panel itself looks affordable – until you add a network card for a multi-panel site, a communicator for remote access, and the engineer time to configure it all. By the time the extras are on the quote, the “budget” option isn’t. The Zeta SmartConnect […]
