Review on 4VWIN Wireless Driveway Weatherproof Security by Harry Ashcraft

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Fast installation and operation

I like having an optional presence detection system. This wireless driveway alarm does its job perfectly and is very easy to set up. You must pull the tab to connect the sensor batteries, install the device, and complete pairing. These are the basics for setting up this device. However, I can suggest pairing the device before installation. This is because you only have 5 seconds to plug it in and lock in the signal you want. The easiest way to get around this is to have a second hand and keep it on the phone while you pair and confirm. As part of the pairing process, you'll need to turn it on or wave your hand in front of it to complete setup. I like the fact that there are many sounds to choose from, along with the volume. The only thing that bothers me is that it is very delicate, I would like it to be possible to reduce it a little. In general it works as intended, however I had to rotate the sensor closer to the apartment to avoid noticing cyclists, pedestrians and large vehicles. This was better as it still picks up the big car from time to time giving me the false impression of someone approaching the driveway. It will take trial and error to refine how you want it to work for your needs. It's a simple solution, but it works and overall I'm very happy with it. Try it!

Pros
  • The waterproof, weatherproof IP55 design allows the IR motion sensor to perform well both indoors and outdoors.
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
