1.0 out of 5 stars False range claims, February 28, 2010

This review is from: Dakota Alert DK-WMT-3000 Dakota Alert Extra Wireless Transmitter (Electronics)

After my Chamberlain system failed due to water leakage, I was thrilled to see that the Dakota Wireless Transmitters had a rubber ring to waterproof. I was also thrilled to see that it's wireless range is 600. However, when testing, I find that it barely makes it 100' direct line of sight with transmitter sitting upright (antenna vertical) and receiver upright with absolutely no obstacles between the units. When I called Dakota, they said that the FCC changed the rules about the transmitters and that they couldn't get the range that they did a few years ago. So, the reviews are giving this unit a 5 were from units sold a few years ago and not from current sales. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED IN FALSE CLAIMS! On the other hand, they do say UP TO 600', and 100' is UP TO, but not even close......

I thought it was great when I bought it. Soon though I found people coming to the door without hearing the alarm going off beforehand. It only worked for 6 months. Stay away from this company and this product.

1.0 out of 5 stars Buy the WMT-3000 at your peril, October 5, 2009

I purchased two transmitters and two receivers for my farm. The receivers work fine but the transmitters are unreliable. Both transmitters leaked allowing rain water to ruin the electronics. The warranty only lasts one year. In total I paid over $300 for what I consider junk.
