Product Description

This 21st century security device can save you hundreds of dollars a year in monitoring fees. It can "guard" your home or office seven days a week, 24 hours a day. If an intruder is detected inside its massive detection area (20 ft lengthy by 90 degress) it will sound a potent 125 decibel to scare away the would-be intruder and alert those inside to the attempted entry (the alarm function can be disabled if you prefer a silent alarm). Up to 3 telephone numbers are automatically dialed and your pre-recorded message (up to six seconds lengthy) is played. You could plan it to call your neighbor, the police, and your cell phone and play a message like, "this is John Doe, an intruder has been detected in my household located at 123 Maple St.." Capabilities include hassle-free operation (can be installed by any one in only minutes), arms and disarms applying a keypad (you set your personal security code), and entry and exit delays help stop false alarms. Two alarm method warning decals are included. Makes use of on your existing telephone line the unit comes with a line splitter (an extra line is not necessary) and 6 feet of phone cable. This alarm measures in at 6 1/two" x 2 1/two" x 1 five/8". Needs four 'AAA' batteries that are not included.

Customer Reviews

does what it says, and it's easy to use and install.
the options are nice, such as "silent alarm" mode, which dials numbers, but doesn't sound the audible alarm. comes with the cable and splitter you'll need, which is also great. not sure how fast it will chew batteries, but the unit was inexpensive. i can buy rechargeables.
weakness: the six second message is too short to describe an address and situation without speaking chipmunk speed, and it's very low-res and muffled sounding, (worse on my low voice, i think)--much worse than a bad answering machine. the clarity and brevity might limit its use to phone the police, but if you are being notified by cell phone, for instance, (then YOU can phone the cops), it's just fine.
i like it very much, and feel better using it.

Exactly as advertised! I had to fiddle with mine a bit as the batteries did not seem to be making proper contact, however, once I resolved that little issue, it works great. All I wanted it to do was let me know if anyone went into my office at home. It senses movement and calls my cellphone to let me know there has been an intrusion. I then have the choice of calling a neighbor and asking him to check things out or call the police myself. I would only use it in the house. It would likely sense any little movement outside and drive you nuts. You can have it dial up to three number with your pre-recorded announcement but I felt that calling my cellphone was enough as it is always with me. If you are expecting a $500 alarm system, forget it. If you are expecting an inexpensive product that actually works, it is certainly worth the few dollars you pay for it. I will be ordering more for the house...remember, you must have a house phone link in order for it to call you, and, it needs to be near the location you wish to place it in, otherwise you will have to run phone cord extensions all over the house.
