Review on πŸ”’ Enhanced Security with Xena XX14 304 Stainless Steel Motorcycle Disc Lock Alarm by Aries Greene

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Heavy duty isn't strong enough to describe

Just arrived yesterday and I was expecting a much smaller and more delicate piece so I was surprised when I opened my email program and saw this monster. It is big. That is hard. Nobody cuts it off with anything but a blowtorch. Is it sensitive? Of course it is VERY delicate, but that's why I bought it. I put a cup of coffee on the table about a foot away from him and he exploded. I like it. So when you hear all the screaming complaints about this thing, just know they're only half right. Why half? Because it screams after you put the battery in and it screams when you hit it, but that screech only lasts 10 seconds before it resets and falls silent. It won't just scream all night or until the battery dies and wake up your entire block. However, it doesn't reset until it detects motion, in which case it continues its 120dB squeak endlessly. how loud is it Is everything really that loud? YES SIR. Leave it rolled up in Nanda if it works when not attached to the disc because that way you can mute it a bit (can't do it when it's on the disc because of the corner so don't worry Thief could just put his hand on it and shut up). Did I mention it's big? Because it is. Put it in a sock and you stand a good chance against a hungry bear if he jumps at you as you secure your bike for the night. Can I get the normal version of the brake disc without the alarm? Never. Why? Because when you get it, there will come a day when you'll drive away with it still strapped to your bike and ruin everything. The alerted versions will yell at you as soon as you take the wheel, and you never have to worry about pulling off with one. Trust me, no matter how you feel, you won't forget you put it on the night before. So, take the alarm version. This thing fuses right into your handlebars, so anyone who thinks they're stealing your bike will be in for a rude awakening the moment this thing activates. Only the most dedicated will mess with your car with this installed.
