Remember when we had to run a separate wire for every single sensor?

Back in the early 2000s, my van was just a giant spool of 4-conductor. I'd spend half a day fishing wire through a finished house in Cincinnati. Now, with a good wireless system, I can do a full 8-zone install before lunch. The change really started for me around 2015 when the battery life got good. Anyone else miss the simplicity of a hardwired panel, even with the extra work?

My back still hurts just thinking about it lmao. I don't miss the wire spaghetti at all, but I do feel dumber now that I can't blame a bad crimp for my mistakes.

Feel like wireless just trades one headache for another, grant.
