Wireless Home Security System

by Mace

Product Description

How it Works: 1. When the door/window sensor or motion detector is triggered, it sounds an alarm and sends a signal to the base unit. 2. The base unit dials the first telephone number of your programmed list. 3. The person answering the call will hear a prerecorded alert message. 4. That person will have the option to listen in on the room, broadcast their voice through the base unit, or disarm the system. 5. If there is no answer, or if the person doesn't disarm the system, it will dial the next number on your programmed list. Includes 1 base unit with AC adapter, 1 Window/door sensor (wireless transmission up to 250 feet), 1 motion detector (range up to 8 yards) and 1 remote control with panic feature for arming and disarming the unit.

This does what it says. I will start with the dialing the phones part since this was my main concern when I ordered. Set is easy if you follow the directions. I put in my cell phone number, my brother in law who is a cop, and my neighbors number along with a couple of more, and this system was ringing my cell phone within a second of being set off. I then let it keep going and it dialed everyone perfect. You can turn it off via your cell phone, listen in own the system, talk via the system and it comes with a card that you can put in your wallet to help you remember the codes. The only reason I didnt give it 5 stars is b/c the remote control chain for my key ring broke.(not the remote, just the chain) For a unmonitored system and at less than a hundred when I bought it, this works great. If you have a home with two doors, then this will work. I put the door monitor on one door, and the motion detector in the room with the other door, and both have been working for over 3 months without having to change the batteries. Love mine, just wish it came with 2 remotes but the keypad is easy enough to use. Want a nice inexpensive nonmonitored system, this should do you great.

I have been very surprised at how well this product works considering the price. The remote motion sensor and door/window sensors work very well. The control panel is pretty easy to use. There are a couple of drawbacks, though. The noises that sound when you key in your commands and when the base is alerting you that it's doing something (not the alarm) are really loud. And, you CANNOT control the volume. It's like shockingly loud, which if you live in an apt complex, sort of ruins the element of surprise, if you want that.

This product works great except for one thing... it includes a call-in feature that allows the owner to call the home and set it's functions remotely. However, if you have an answering machine, it overrides it. So, either it picks up before the answer machine does (and nobody can leave a message) or your answering machine picks up leaving you unable to access the alarm. If you have a second home line the alarm could hook up to, that would be ideal.

Oh, and the alarm instructions were written by a moron. Not good.
