It seems to work just fine. I used my backhoe to dig a 250 foot trench down the middle of my driveway and back filled the dirt. I hooked it up to the Vehicle Alert module in the house and it senses vehicles that enter my property with a loud 3 or 4 second beep from the Vehicle Alert module. It's pretty sensitive. I have it about 20 feet from the end of the driveway and it still falses whenever a vehicle with a dirty ignition system drives by. There is a potentiometer on the Vehicle Alert module to make the sensor less sensitive. I did make a small adjustment and got rid of most of the falses. The school bus that drives by the end of my driveway at 8am and 3:10pm sets it off for the 3 or 4 second beep. I don't mind it. When I first installed the system it was way too sensitive and incoming thunder storms also made it go off. If a thunder storm was getting ready to start, the closer it got, the more the vehicle alert module would beep more and more, then "boom", the thunder storm would start. I have it adjusted to pretty much how I like it. It seems to be a decent system. I can also hook it up to my CCTV system camera alarm input and can turn on a camera when the sensor senses a vehicle entering the property.
