Yah, What the heck? The XW Pro/Discover AES pairing makes up 2/3s of our installs. Right now I have a client who's Insight Home is glitching and drops out his smartphone connection. Without the SCP He'd be in the dark. I just purchased an SCP off of Ebay for 700.00 for a system we are building for a retiree who uses a flip-phone and doesn't use the internet. Him having to login in to Insight on a tablet every time he wants to see SOC would be laughable.
