Tools and Hardware Reviews of Chamberlain PIR2-300S Sensor for Reporter Wireless Alert System
Customer Review: extremely reliable
Summary: 5 Stars
I have a work truck full of expensive tools,prime target for the drug addicts in my neighborhood. Living on a corner house its very visable. Several times my small air compressor had been lifted out of the truck till the chain caught and it was left hanging over the side bed. I set up the reporter and a few days later right before dark it went off, I grabbed my unloaded pellet gun which looks very real with a scope. A white punk jumped ito his buddies car and u cud see the extreme fear on all their faces as I pointed this weapon at them, they left the scene with tires screeching, I thought they wer going to wreck going around the corner. That was several years ago and I have added a few cameras and another reporter as back up, but no more attempts to grab any of my tools. Its also nice to know when the UPS or Fed X or mail has arrived. I do hav false alarms when the wind blows my tarp but its never failed to warn me wen somone has enterd my driveway.Customer Review: have two, buying my third PIR sensor

After having a unit work flawslessly for six months on my front driveway and a second on my rear deck, I am buyung a third sensing unit to place on my front porch. I get no false alarms and very good coverage from each unit. Plenty of warning when a person or car is on your property. The way I have them aimed, the neighborhood (four-legged) critters do not set off the alarms. Very happy with this system. Customer Review: The Reporter works wonderfully!

I'm very satisfied with this driveway alert system. I mounted mine to a tree in my front yard, about 3-4 ft. off the ground, facing my garage doors and front sidewalk. It works every time anyone pulls into our driveway! It's great if you're expecting company, or a babysitter, as you can be waiting by the front door to greet them. Or, you can be alerted to a solicter before they ring your doorbell. I bought a second unit for my back deck, mainly for peace of mind. Now, if anyone comes near the back door, I'll know about it. My systems have never given any false alarms, yet. I think if you follow the instructions and mount it high enough, you won't have any trouble. My one piece of advice is: If you live in a cold climate like me, spend the extra $$ on Lithium batteries. They work through about any temperature. We've had a cold spell of up to minus 17F recently and these things still work every time! My one complaint is that there's no volume control. The alarm is fairly loud, but if I'm upstairs, or in the basement watching a movie I don't always hear it. I'd suggest mounting the base unit in a central location where you're most likely to hear it best. Customer Review: driveway alarm

No trouble to install. Works fine at about 100 yards. Internal buzzer not loud but bought doorbell at Home Depot for ten dollars so I can hear it all over the house.Customer Review: Additional Sender

This unit works like a champ. I have it set-up appox. 500 ft. away and it works very good. Although there are no really obstructions but still it works great. Easy to set-up also. I'm also adding two more units to the set-up.
