WORKS until I need to replace the battery.

The device worked perfectly until the battery was changed. The indicator will start blinking RED indicating low battery. Have now tried it with 3 sets of new batteries and it no longer lights up. Disappointed.

Pros
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • I don't like it at all, everything is fine

Easy to install for backup monitors and alarms

Works great. Goes as deep as a foot. Must keep objects away from the sensor, otherwise it won't see the car. I think 6-10 inches on either side works well. I had to move the board I was using to support the shelf that was above the sensor as it was close to the field of view.

Pros
  • Handy item
Cons
  • Weight

Worked great for a while.

It was great until it stopped working. I changed the batteries, but that's no problem. As if the sensor flew for no reason. Nothing comes close or touches it to damage it, so I don't think it should last very long. I have 6 months use.

Pros
  • Sleek design
Cons
  • Expensive

Cheap and unresponsive, spend a little more money for one that works

Super unresponsive I mean it's yellowed a few times but usually turns red at the last moment no matter how slow you move . Turns red in the last second whether it's set to 1, 2, or 3 feet. Doesn't work like the ones with big sensors. When you open it you'll find it's $5 crap. The wire is incredibly thin and not long enough, the sensor is small and unresponsive, CHEAP

Pros
  • Sturdy finish
Cons
  • Zero

That's cool! Actually works great!

Got this to help get my SUV back to my 1 car garage - not much room for error as my garage is smaller - I have the distance alarm adjusted to 1 foot (it has 3 spacing settings) and hung on the wall at bumper height. Raised my SUV rear window LED height so I can see it through my rearview mirror and it works like a charm every time! When I'm backing up, the light first turns green at 3ft, then amber at 2ft, then red at 1ft, right where I want to stop. Always works great!

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Not sure

Don't waste time

Complete and complete garbage. The light is on even when there is no movement or does not light up when there is movement. It flashes randomly for hours and then stops for no reason. I was driving the car tonight and it would never start, sometimes it turns red straight away or it just doesn't work; It's just completely incompatible with the way it works and that makes it completely unreliable. The design is actually really good because the light is attached to the cable so the sensor can be…

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • Appearance

You get what you pay for

When I looked at this item online it was clear that it was in the lower (bottom?) price range for garage parking sensors so I didn't have very high expectations and didn't feel like taking a big risk with the purchase. My expectations were confirmed. The device works intermittently, randomly, or not at all. An old tennis ball hanging from the ceiling was far more reliable, although annoying. When my new garage parking "sensor" detects the movement of a car entering the garage, it quickly cycles

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Almost never
