(More customer reviews)First, I was skeptical because the online info and documentation was limited. I made the gamble due to good reviews. I am happy to report that it is a good product. Packaging was light, OEM style. Instructions were simple and easy to follow; but lacked specifications and some function descriptions. Still not sure about the "anti-interference defense" feature, but figured out the difference between "home" and "away" mode. All of the systems appear to be the same; some with more or less sensors. Overall the system performed as stated; very good DIY value!
Pro:
All the parts and features came as stated (the siren is the size of a fist and it's white; not red & black as pictured)
Very good range on sensors and controls - with antennas that can be pull out to extent the range
AC powered plus rechargeable battery in the control unit - other sensors are powered by common batteries.
The nonadjustable siren is very loud, like fire alarm, and the construction looks like it could be placed outside, if protected from weather
4 handy "key fob" (car remote size) has 4 buttons, lock (armed/away), unlock, home, and panic. the difference between "home" and "away" is "home" deactivates IR / motion sensors and the alarm will sound if the door / window sensors tripped. "panic" activates the alarm and the control unit will call the 6 user programmed phone numbers.
Wireless! You can take this alarm system WITH you; hotels, warehouse, summer cabin. or create cross Motion IR sensors to eliminate blind spots
Con:
Siren wire(connected to control unit), about 3ft, is short and piercing siren volume is nonadjustable; I was told they have optional wireless siren
No warning stickers or signs
limited descriptions (you will have questions)
The keypad control is common size; the Motion IR sensors is palm size; the door sensors are a bit large, 2"x3" size.
One door sensor did not work. I call the company and the lady was very pleasant and promised she will send me the replacement.
Setup, testing and planning took most of the 2 hour installation time. The actual installation took 15 min. thanks to taped-on door sensors. The tape is strong, make sure you do it right the first time.
