Finally ditched wireless sensors. So much more reliable.

I ran a test last month. Installed a 2GIG panel with hardwired sensors in my own house. Compare that to the wireless DSC system I put in my brother's place. Zero false alarms on mine in 4 weeks, his went off 3 times from a damn spider.

@hayden_rivera you nailed it on the false alarms, but the real hidden win with hardwired is no battery swaps ever. Those wireless sensors always seem to die at 2 AM when you're too lazy to change them. Spider triggers are annoying but at least you can troubleshoot a wired system without guessing which sensor is fading.

Used to think wireless was just cleaner and easier, honestly. Had a string of false alarms with my old setup that drove me crazy though. Hardwired has been night and day different for actual reliability.
