eMACROS Solar Wireless Driveway Alarm — 1/2 Mile Long Range Motion Sensor for Long Driveways, Homes & Large Properties, Outdoor Weatherproof Security Alert System(1 Base Station with 2 Sensors)

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Product – Exactly What I Needed I purchased the eMACROS Solar Wireless Driveway Alarm after experiencing three vehicle break-ins over the past two years, and I needed something reliable to add another layer of security. About two months after installing this system, someone attempted to break into my vehicle again — and this time, the alarm immediately went off. I truly believe that the sound deterred them and stopped the break-in before it could happen. The alert was loud, clear, and gave me instant awareness that someone was on my property. This alarm works perfectly alongside my existing security setup, and together they make an excellent combination for deterring vehicle break-ins. The solar feature, wireless setup, and reliability make this system exactly what I was looking for. I highly recommend this product to anyone who wants an effective, affordable, and easy-to-use driveway or perimeter alarm. It gives real peace of mind.

I had another brand that lasted about 3 years or so out in the weather. I like the "disc" design. The other unit had a single unit that plugged into the wall taking up the entire outlet. It was easy to set up and install. I use it at the end of my 100 yard driveway and it is very reliable. The only issue I have found with these types of sensors is if there is no sun for several days they might not work. We don't get a lot of traffic so I rarely have this problem. The sensor can be plugged in using a USB-C connector if power is available.

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).

These worked exactly as advertised.

Easy set up and working without any issues so far.

I bought a set of 3 motion detectors and 1 receiving station - (and “later” an additional motion detector) - because I was dissatisfied with “previous” motion detectors (which I bought -– from the hardware store - for a price of – approximately - 10 dollar).When „testing“ the „set of 3 motion detectors (And „later“ I bought an additional motion detector) - I made a "big" mistake - because I didn't immediately watch the video about „pairing“ (= Connecting the motion detectors with receiving station). The motion detectors „from the set“ were already connected „(paired“) to the receiving unit – by „seller“. For „connecting“ the additional motion detector with receiving station - you must follow the seller's instructions from the video. The "connecting" (= „PAIRING“) worked differently "here" - than I suspected at the "beginning" of my test (So - when I didn't see the video yet). I have at home (from another seller) a „humidity receiver unit“ und 5 „humidity sensors“ – which are „paired“ with 433 Mhz - too. If I restart my „humidity receiver unit“ - then it "automatically" searches for the humidity sensors. I “mistakenly” assumed that the „motion detector receiving unit“ - “automatically” searches for the motion detectors (“after a restart” of receiving unit). However, you must (especially if you buy an additional motion detector) "follow" the "instructions" in the video - because otherwise the motion detector cannot be connected to the receiving station. That's why I suspected - that the motion detector wasn't working (or is not „compatible“). Luckily, the seller helped me quickly with this matter - via email. Here was the solution to my „problem“: I pressed the button for a long time - until all the indicator lights start flashing. The “additional” motion detector must first be switched off. If all the control lights on the receiving unit flash - then you have to select the "wanted" channel. And only then is the (additional) motion detector “connected” to the receiving station. It was of course my "fault" - that I didn't watch the video immediately. So far - (as mentioned above) I have often bought motion detectors ("without radio waves") in hardware stores. And here are my “previous” experiences - with these detectors from hardware stores: I have (in the past) already tested a few ("rather" very cheap = approx. 10 dollars each) motion detectors "without radio transmission" ("from the DIY store") in the "outdoor area". And unfortunately (very many) - especially cheap - "infra-red motion detectors" often had difficulties working "properly". Either no alarm was reported - even though a car or a person was moving in front of the motion detector. Or too many "completely wrong" alarms were reported - i.e. "nothing" moved in front of the sensor, etc.... So I was very nicely surprised - when I "finally" bought an infrared motion detector set from „this“ seller - which ("roughly estimated") - works for me 95% to 99% - really "correctly". Of course I made sure - that there are no branches of trees (Or something "similar") - in the "sensor detection range" - because ("probably") - even with this motion detector - the danger could increase - that error alarms will appear. So far - it is the "best" infrared motion detector (At a rather „reasonable price“) for me - which I have tried in the "outdoor area". P.S.: There is also a receiving unit - which works with 4 AA batteries (or mains connection = POWER SUPPLY: AC 120 Volt/DC 5 Volt. Or you buy a receiving unit - which you “only” operate with a mains connection (=POWER SUPPLY: AC 120 Volt/DC 5 Volt). Personally, I always connect a ("charged") power bank when I want to "test" the receiving station outdoors. Because the seller reacted so "quickly" to my "problem" - I decided - to "design" my "FEEDBACK" a little more detailed.

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.

We bought this to add another sensor to our existing driveway alarm system. it took no time to set up, turned it on and it was up and running with our current system, which we think is awesome anyway.

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。

We purchased this as a Hosmart solar sensor was not available at the time of purchase. We are very happy with this particular sensor and it appears to pick up peripheral movements.
