Amazon.com Review When a visitor--wanted or unwanted--approaches a house on foot or in a vehicle the motion-detecting sensor unit of this warning device sends a signal to the receiver indoors, which chimes an alert. The device is wireless and has a 400-foot range. It requires three C-cell batteries for the receiver and one 9-volt battery for the transmitting sensor. (Batteries are not included.) The sensor is housed in weather-resistant plastic, installs with a screw on any surface, such as a mailbox post, garage, or door, and measures 4-1/4 inches high, 2-5/8 inches wide, and 2-1/4 inches deep. The portable receiver has an identical housing, can be set to chime high or low (or turned off), and measures 5 inches high, 3-5/8 inches wide, and 1-1/2 inches deep. --Fred Brack
Great for shed alarm!!March 19, 2010 M. Baker(Zellwood, FL USA) I have two locked sheds and a long driveway. I ordered one of these just to see if it would work. I work at home, so my concern is that someone will break into our sheds while we are sleeping.
My first shed is about 80 feet from our bedroom (concrete walled). I placed the sensor inside the shed on a shelf and closed the door. Just by sliding the shed door open, the alarm went off in our bedroom. Worked perfect!
Our second shed is about 200 feet away from our bedroom (concete walled). I placed the sensor inside the shed on a shelf and closed the door. Just by sliding the shed door open, the alarm went off in our bedroom. Worked perfect!
I then placed the receiver on my office desk (where I am working all day and do not have a view of our driveway) and had someone stay with it. I got on my cell phone and started walking with the sensor down our driveway. I would say it stopped receiving after about 300 feet. The receiver was on the back side of our house, so I was pretty impressed.
I just order two more units. One for the other shed and one for our driveway.
I guess if there is one thing I do not like is that the receiver does not come with a 4.5 volt wall plugin and you have to use three C size batteries. I did a lot of searching online and a 4.5 volt wall plugin (or universal plugin) costs just as much as the driveway patrol unit does.
DefectiveMarch 15, 2010 Lisa Duncan(Dallas, Texas) Unbelievable - the product received didn't work. Since amazon is not the seller, the seller doesn't accept returns, says I must deal with the manufacturer; I say to the prospective buyers - buy only from amazon directly so you can return if the product doesn't work
Nice product!March 12, 2010 K. Cook(Houston, TX USA) This product does exactly what it is designed to do...I bought three and have them outside, protected from the rain. The distance advertised works fine, the product works fine...now, you will always get a false alarm now and then because these things cannot identify a bird or dog versus a criminal so let's be fair about understanding that these items are not high dollar military grade sensors, they are perfect for most home needs and I could not be more pleased with the quality, especially when considering the price. I have had and used mine for a month or so and have had no problems. Keep in mind, it is important to think about where to place them...you don't want a bush blowing in the wind that may activate them and end up driving you nuts. I don't even use mine as driveway monitors even though they would be fine for this...Mine are mostly placed around the house to detect unwanted guests. Keep them protected from the rain and extreme weather and they could be the exact thing needed to help protect your home and keep up with who's coming and going. I would buy more if needed.
Can't beat it for the price.March 10, 2010 N. Howe(Wesley Chapel, FL) I have 2 of these now, they both work great so far, only had them a couple months but so far so good.
