Alarm Security Bar

by S.N. on 09/26/2014

It is too difficult to set the sensitivity for the alarm sound. Still don't know if its correct so Im just using it like a would one with no alarm. Disappointing because I waited for 2 months to receive it.

Another good idea, only when it works. The alarm is a battery hog. While testing it out over a couple of hours, I drained 2 9 volt batteries. The db level is so low that it would not wake a sleeping dog. The metal contact around the collar does not contact the door knob only the neck of the door knob which does not activate the alarm. The collar has to be touching the knob for the alarm to sound. If the bad guy on the outside who is trying to manipulate the door knob is wearing gloves the alarm will not sound an alert. Apparently it it must pick-up the electrical conductivity of the skin to activate the alarm. I've removed the alarm unit and replacing it with another unit that is more sensitive and a lot louder to alert me from a dead sleep. I understand you are the marketing arm, but you should do more testing on products that you market. I've read other reviews who have had the same problems with their Alarm Security Bar. Thanks, Frank
