Customer Critiques

This alarm is terrific if you're in an apartment. For a home I would invest the dollars to have the complete residence wired, but for apartments, it does the trick. Put a single on every single window/door and forget about the $100's in gates and bars. I refuse to be the prisioner in my personal abode with gates and bars on the windows... I reside in NYC. This alarm is loud and the batteries can be tested devoid of setting it off. If you have old wooden windows it may perhaps not line up effectively but you have a half inch deviance to play with prior to it activates, but most of the windows in NYC are power efficent aluminum double glass..so for $6.06 every single they are a bargain. I extremely suggest it for apartment living.

GE makes rather very good and LOUD Window Alarms. The reason for the low rating is that the item on the picture is not the item that is getting shipped. Beware of this truth. The a single on the picture is a a lot additional secure model given that the "on/off" switch is inside of the battery compartment. This style tends to make it difficult for a person unfamiliar with the device to turn it "Off".
The item that was shipped is also a "GE" Window Alarm, nonetheless, a totally distinct and less secure model. When it has an "Alarm/Chime/off" switch, it is clearly labeled on the outside of the device. Depending on your window, you could in fact see the "Off" label from the outside of the window. This tends to make it highly simple and easy for everyone to disable the alarm just before anybody is able to pinpoint the source of the sound. You would want it to make noise extended sufficient to discover the noise and its location.
The item that arrived tends to make for a pretty beneficial Chime. The "Chime" is new on this model. When switched to this mode, it makes a single "Dinnngg/Donnnngg" sound when activated - terrific for Dorm Rooms or to make positive you hear children opening a window or door. Having said that, the external and labeled controls on the outside of the device make this a incredibly bad "alarm" that can be too-readily disabled.
