eMACROS Non-APP Wireless Driveway Alarm — 1/2 Mile Solar Motion Sensor with Plug-in Receiver for Driveways, Homes, Large Properties, Weatherproof Outdoor Security System

Great item. Easy to set up. Works great.

I did not know how this was going to work out after reading how it was supposed to work. However it has been a couple of years since I have owned the driveway alarm, and it is still working after going through a few seasons of harsh rains and snows and freezing temps. Now you have to keep in mind that the sensor is going to pick up flying insects, birds, squirrels climbing the tree that I have it mounted on, and the occasional falling leaf or blowing debree in the wind. The sensor is sensitive picks up almost anything that goes i front of it. I always know when wildlife is around and it always picks up any vehicle that comes up my road. Of course this is what you are wanting it to do, and it does it very well. You just have to be willing to deal with all the other items it can detect. For instance , I have had a lot of flying insect or blowing debree false alarms, but better that it alerts you than not be working correctly. You can't program it to only pick up automobiles and ignore animals, its going to detect it all, even unwanted humans invading your property. The reciever does have a the ability to adjust the volume of the alarm and you can add a couple of more sensor/transmitters to it with different sounds so you will know which sensor is going off around your property. It would come in handy to place one in the back yard to detect intruders. I am just now doing this review and mine is still working very well. At least it is doing well so far. I'm going to be honest and say that I anticipated it to stop working because of harsh weather after a while, but this little alarm system has been doing great. I am thinking of adding another sensor to it.

This may not be the least expensive driveway alert system, but it does work well (so far). I installed it about a month ago. In the woods, where my driveway winds through. The leaves are gone, now that it is winter, so there is sunlight. I charged it up via the USB charger before installing it. That is something that is not clear in the description: You can (and probably should) fully charge it before installing outside. It can be charged like any other electrical device that charges via a USB port. Supposedly, even if there is no sunlight available to charge the battery, it will stay operational for many months if you first charge it via USB. The car detection works fine. A few other things get detected -- such as deer (I assume, since I really can't see what is being detected). But the non-car detections have been few. Set-up is easy. You have about 30 alert sounds to choose from, and you have to pick one. You can scroll through them to hear each one before picking. You can change it to use another sound at any time later. The sounds that are provided are a bit limited, and some people will be dissatisfied with the options. I do not like the "ding-dong" doorbell sound -- because it is too confusing to have to distinguish it from my normal doorbell. So, this option is sort of ridiculous in my opinion, when most doorbells have the "ding-dong" sound. There is no simple "buzzer" sound -- which my previous alert had used. I have no need for the "back door", "side yard", etc. pronouncements (which are only useful if you set up multiple detectors.) I just wanted a sound that I could definitely identify as "car driving up my driveway". There are only a few options available, once the stupid ones are eliminated. I picked the "Adams Family" theme song -- which just plays a few bars. It's fine for my purposes. So, this alert system works well, and I can't yet say how well the solar charging works. My down-grading to 4 stars is only because of the limited number of good sound-alert options available. The ability to send signal through the forest is perfectly good at 700 ft (or, it may be more ft).

I had an issue with the product have a few months of use. The customer support was great, and they sent me a new unit. We use the alarm about 600 or 700 hundred feet from the house and there are trees in the line of sight. It works great and it is really nice to know when someone is coming onto our rural property. Great product.

I love my driveway alarm. It is the 2nd one we ordered. It definitely works and we have it at the full range, around 1/2 a mile away from the house. I love the upgrade since the first one, lots of alarm sounds to pick from, smaller base to attach to and easier to detach device from plate.

Ok, having used a different alarm for 2 years that would false alarm constantly. This eMac is great. No false alarms, unless a deer, squirrel or rabbit crosses, which is infrequently. Also the alarm can be heard without making your ears bleed from loud decibel. It has a soft, hearable tone speaker is in the kitchen, and you don't run screaming when it goes off. Multiple sounds as well. All in all quite pleased. Major plus, no batteries to change, and the solar is under trees and stays charged.

We are loving our new motion sensors from Emacros! This was so easy to set up. It didn't take 5 minutes to figure it out. And it was pretty easy to go out with the screws that they gave us to set it up, to just screw it into some of the wooden posts along the fence line. The whole sensor is on a swivel. So you can move it to the side so you can get to all four screw holes. But it also helps on moving the swivel to aim the motion sensor in the direction you want in at the height that you want. We live on a home with some acreage and we have a long gravel driveway that is more than a quarter mile long. When it goes off, we know an individual is driving up our driveway. The only problem is, when that motion sensor goes off, we are looking to see who this individual is driving up our driveway and being a gravel driveway it takes a while for them to come down and get to my house. And sometimes, we never see a vehicle because it was possibly a deer or something else like that walking in front of it. Only one out of 10 times is it not a vehicle. But we already knew that by having deers, it would set this motion sensor off from time to time. But, to solve both of these problems, we purchased a second motion sensor. And we set it up further down the driveway. This way we know if it's a vehicle, it would set off both motion sensors. Because I don't think a deer is going to walk down my driveway and set off all my sensors. Lol. For people with long driveways, I recommend purchasing at least two sensors. This does an incredible job! Update.... I have 2 in my driveway. 3 years later, neither is working.

Works great. Love it. Sometimes it goes off when the wind is blowing hard.

This driveway alarm was perfect for us with the front gate over 100m away from the house and works perfectly and so easy to install ... great product

Very pleased with our purchase, we bought a two pack. This sensor gives us peace of mind that we know when someone pulls into our drive way. Great sensitivity and range. Very easy to set up and being able to change the alert makes it easy to know which sensor is being activated. I cannot comment on the battery life as these were recently purchased. We also purchased more of these sensors for family and friends.

毎日、きちんと作動しており、防犯上なくてはならない商品になりました。いい商品だと思います。

屋外で800メートルまで通信可能と書いてたので購入しましたが200メートルも届かず無駄な出費になりました。 一般家庭や会社での使用としてはいいかもわかりません。

Easy installation. Good service. After sales support. Works like they say it does. Really pleased with my choice.
