Warning: I tried a new wireless sensor for a month and it's not even close to the old wired ones

I installed a set of the newer, popular wireless contacts on a few residential jobs, thinking they'd save me time. After a month, two of them had battery alerts and one gave a false open signal, while the wired sensors I put in a different house are still solid. For a reliable system, are you guys still sticking with hardwired on most jobs?

Ugh, that's rough. My buddy had a wireless sensor die right after the warranty ended, total headache. Makes you wonder if the time saved is even worth it.

Man, that's the worst feeling @angela_dixon. It really does feel like some stuff is built to fail just outside the warranty period. Makes you lose trust in the whole brand, lol.
