5 out of 5 stars Perfect Security System Addition at a Great Price   February 12, 2009

Let me start by acknowledging Amazon for providing such a deal on the sensor. The manufacturer sells this sensor at $90. I was able to add three additional sensors (radar, tilt, glass) to my system for the price of one.

I added this to my Python 872 security system. After 20 minutes of testing the sensitivity levels, I set it up just as I wanted: I have it so it will warn when standing right next to the vehicle, and it will only arm if someone enters the car (I had the window rolled down while testing for the full alarm trigger). Adds a much welcomed ability to my Security/Remote Start System. Bam.



5 out of 5 stars it works but hard to find sensitivity medium   April 7, 2009

it definitely works. dont get me wrong, but im still trying to find the medium where it just chirps when u walk by or up to the vehicle, & goes off if bumped. its set now to go off when bumped somewhat hard, & chirp if just pushed. its weird because its either too much or too little. the turning mechanisms are not that wide so you have to try again & again to find the sensitivity you want. or be blessed enough to find an alarm tech to install it & set the sensitivity perfect the first time... but it does the job!!

Works very good. You can hide the sensor so it`s undetectable. I have a Jeep with a Soft Top. This sensor was perfect for interior protection.


5 out of 5 stars Radar disturbance detector   July 22, 2010

I put this detector on a Viper 350Plus alarm. It is very simple to plug in the connector plug. I did install the alarm myself and that was not real simple. The detector works great but is a little weak back at the rear doors on my full size Ford cargo van. The unit is mounted on the ceiling 1 foot behind the front dome light. It functions great from the side doors forward when the van is empty, when van has lots of cargo the sensitivity is less. I have it set to max level on warning and full alarm adjustments when in my driveway and turn detector off with three presses of the alarm button when setting alarm in parking lots. It will sense anyone approaching any door with a window in it. It does not detect through the sheet metal body.

Works great! Use it on a Viper model 5000 in my Dodge Ram quad cab. When adjusted to high it even picks up motion a few feet away from truck with windows and doors closed. It even picked up on the vibration/motion of me tossing in a tool box in the back of the bed. Odd that it indicates 'open door' icon on remote when it warns and/or alarms. It does show as a different zone number than the door zone.
