Just read a forum post saying wireless sensors are 'unreliable garbage'

I was scrolling through a security tech forum and saw a guy from Dallas claiming that all wireless sensors should be banned from commercial installs. He said he had a 30% failure rate on Honeywell 5800 series units last year alone. In my experience, it's usually the installer not setting the zones right or putting them near metal studs that causes 90% of the issues. Has anyone else had a job where a wired setup was straight up impossible, but wireless worked fine after a careful placement?

30% failure sounds like installer error, not the gear.

Yeah I'd bet money it's a bad install every time.
