Easy to set up
Prompt delivery. Good value and easy to set up. Does not go "Ding Dong" as advised on box! Just a loud noise.

An excellent device.
Due to a recent occourance we needed something like this.-Thats another storey.!There is no pairing involved, just grab some batteries and go in both units.As you can see ive put mine in a alleyway, ive now also covered the PIR led with black tippex so its not so obvious when its triggered.Remember to install the PIR away from central heating boiler exhausts otherwise it will false alarm.!The signal/speaker unit can be put virtually anywhere and can be very loud togeather with flashing LEDS.Yes very happy with this purchase, have to see how it puts up with bad weather though. Thanks Amazon!

Load of Rubbish. Do not buy. Only fit for the bin . Not worth the one star.

the jury is still out on this one
This unit could be so much better without interfering with the price.It does not have a wall bracket so has to be attached directly to the wall [or fence] this means it's angle of direction has to be 90 degree to the wall or fence. An adjustable bracket is needed. I cannot set this looking directly down my drive as i cannot set it in the location needed due to no adjustable bracket, so i have had to set this on my garage door to achieve the effect i want. [for me it is too far back at this location]The alarm tone - don't know as i would call it "ding dong" and it is only a single toned unit - needs a few tones to choose from!Volume - no options other than high or low. high is loud - very loud. whilst low is very low barely audible in a room with a tv turned on - HOWEVER to be fair, it was enough to wake me from a sleep at night. but i am a light sleepercolour - white, makes it highly visible - suggest black would be better! for the outside unit.LED - bright and again highly visible, needs an option to turn this off which will save on power!!IP Rating - Rated at IP44 - this is not ideal for outdoor use, it will probably allow water ingress in a torrential rain storm [which we are getting more of] needs to be at least IP65 or IP66 ratingSensing distance:- this is interesting as it claims to be 5mtrs [give or take] and for human detection i found this to be reasonably accurate BUT it will detect a car coming past my drive at probably 15mtrs or more but will not detect a human at that distance.It is capable of doing the job but i do feel there are better products out there for a similar price point. that would offer a little more flexibility for mounting, sounds and battery life. this will be greedy on batteries for sure. i have yet to experience battery life but when i know there are product that uses 4 AA batteries with a life span of over 1 year a PP3 and 3 x C batteries with an alleged life of just 1 month [which i have not yet confirmed or disproven] really does put this product at the lower end of the "good product guide"Addendum December 2024:- Some people have complained about battery life, so far this item has been running 24/7 for some 10 weeks or more and i am still running from the original batteries i inserted. - i did a battery check after 4 weeks and all 4 batteries were still showing as being fully charged. So, to those people that are complaining about battery life, perhaps you are using cheap batteries?Along with another security device i have covering my property this item DID alert us to intruders that prevented the theft of a motorbike. Whilst i remain convinced this product can be improved without extra cost, the fact that the battery life has well exceeded the 1 month many have complained about, and that it did the job as intended i am upgrading my rating from 2 star to 3 star - i would like to give it 3.5 but i can't and i am not convinced it is worth a 4 star but is defo worth more than my original 2 star rating
