Review on πŸ”’ Advanced Optex LX-402 Weatherproof Outdoor Passive Infrared Motion Detector: Reliable Security Solution by Dave Brummet

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Works but expected more

Cons: - At first I could not connect to the POE router with a splitter on the camera in the PIR direction. I had to run a separate 12V DC cable and another for alarm data. Customization settings seem to be successful (either all or nothing). When nothing hits me on low sensitivity, but shoots too far on medium sensitivity (gets caught on the other side of the road). I have a tilt and swivel mount, so that doesn't get me in the right spot either. - The lens cap does not have a smooth shape. It stumbled like it was either overheating or it was just poor quality production. - The price is too high. I could get a similarly sized device for half the price (which I will do for my backyard camera). Pros: - works.

Pros
  • Easy setup
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
