Tools and Hardware Reviews of Chamberlain PIR2-300S Sensor for Reporter Wireless Alert System
Customer Review: The best driveway alarm available!
Summary: 5 Stars
The alarm works great... I've had mine for over three years. The recent order was for two additional transmitters (sensors). I have the transmitter hid 8 feet up in a tree approximately 700 feet from the receiver. I do get false-alarms from raccoons and other small animals. It is a hassle to replace the batteries, requiring the removal of four small Phillips screws but since the first batteries lasted almost three years, why worry! I do suggest replacing the Phillips screws with regular hex-head screws.Customer Review: Not as reliable as I had hoped
Summary: 3 Stars
I recently purchased The Reporter Alert System for my driveway. It was easy to install and fairly simple to set up. The only issue I have is that the system doesn't always work. I have two of the extra sensors directed at my driveway but the system only alerts about half the time. Even after adjusting the sensitivity and locations (repeatedly) I cannot get consistent results. It's very frustrating. Overall still I gave this product 3 out of 5 stars because of price and it's simplicity.Customer Review: Good product overall
Summary: 4 Stars
I have used this product for about 2 months. It is easy to setup and it is fairly small. It does a very good job of detecting motion pretty much 100% of the time. But the main unit receives the signal about 95% of the time and obviously does not alert you when it does not get the signal. So for me this unit alerts me 95% of the time when there is movement and I think I have only gotten about 5 false alerts from leaves or animals so I consider this product a good buy for the price.Customer Review: Junk
Summary: 1 Stars
I expected this unit to work because of the claims that the manufacturer made. I also liked the idea that it is made in the USA. I even purchased an extra sensor. I set one sensor about 80 feet away from the receiver and it does not work. I tried one sensor about 20 feet from the receiver and it works when it feels like working. I just wasted good money on this junk. I can't recommend that anyone should purchase this product. It's a waste of money and time!Customer Review: Reporter Wireless Alert System
Summary: 5 Stars
We have these sensors mounted on at the entrance of our driveway, on our shed, and at the back of our property. This is such a great, inexpensive way to secure your home, and be alerted when someone is on your property. Each sensor is set to buzz either 1, 2 or 3 times, so we know whether someone has just pulled into the driveway, or is at the back of our property. They are easy to set up and blend into the outdoors. Mount easily on a tree.
