The Barking Dog Alarm is ideal for any place that would benefit from having a security dog, except there is no dog care required. It can scare off would-be intruders by imitating the sound of a vicious barking dog (or an alarm sound). It uses non-harmful microwave signals to “see” through walls and activate either an alarm, a chime, or the recording of a dog barking as soon as motion is detected. It can detect someone approaching from over 10 feet away. The chime can be used by store owners to let them know a customer has entered the store or at home as an automatic doorbell to alert you to approaching visitors.It helps to provide early warning against intrusion and to make someone think twice before trying. According to the US Department of Justice, “a dog's presence is a close substitute for human occupancy and most burglars avoid houses with dogs”.
It has three modes: barking dog, chime, or alarm sounds that activate for 60 seconds at a time when motion is triggered. Powered by an AC adapter (included) or 8 AA batteries (not included) for temporary use during a power outage. It includes a wireless remote control to arm/disarm the unit, change the sound mode, or activate the panic alarm in case of an emergency. Long-range remote control (50+ feet also work through walls). Low, Medium, and High Sensitivity settings. Eight volume levels with maximum volume of 120 dB. Measures 6 x 5.75 x 3.75 inches. Warranty: 1 year. It also includes instructions and a window warning sticker.
It will sense motion through most walls (wood, cement, brick, stucco, glass, etc.) but will not work through metal walls, walls with metal studs, tinted glass, or extremely thick walls.
