Mostly Impressed
Have been using these about three months. Overall, I'm impressed with their performance. They are not perfect. However, they are a vast improvement over several cheap systems I have used.I bought a set of four sensors and one receiver to start. Tested and liked the performance enough to buy two more sets, each with two sensors and one receiver. Now I have eight sensors and three receivers. All the sensors work with all the receivers. The receivers are placed at various locations within my house.I tested the transmit/receive range by putting one receiver in the middle of my house and driving around my neighborhood with a sensor inside the car. They still worked at a distance of about 800 feet with the sensor still inside the car and many trees and a couple houses between the sensor and receiver. Very impressive range.Like any other PIR sensor, the sensing accuracy and distance varies with air temperature and the size and temperature of the animal/object within the sensing path. At the highest sensitivity setting the distances have varied from 20 feet to about 100 feet.It would be good if the chime would sound then have a voice announce the sensor number, or something similar.TOP PROS* Transmit range is good* Sensing distance is good* Camo color and pattern are okay* Shows active sensor number on display and flashing number LEDTOP CONS* The sensor does not have enough range of motion left/right and up/down (may require some creative mounting)* Sensor lights red every time something is detected (defeats the purpose of camouflage and gives away location at night)* With eight sensors it's difficult to remember which chime goes with each sensor

Stopped working
Had these for about 10 days and they worked great. Then the audio on the base station went out. It still flashes when a sensor goes off so I know it's connected, but there is no audio (no it's not muted). Packing for a return.UPDATE - I emailed the company and got a response in 15 min, and was immediately offered a replacement receiver (not here yet). But have been contacted twice more by the company to make sure I was being taken care of.Changing review to 3 stars for now just based on the stellar customer service, which I was not expecting. When the receiver arrives will probably bump to a 5 star.UPDATE 2: Well the new receiver is here and working great. Back to 5 stars despite having the first go bad, the customer service here was spectacular.

Hard to read.
The driveway alert works great. We have four sensors placed around our property and they do a great job of alerting us to cars coming up our driveway. The reason for giving this 3 stars is the receiver. The screen uses blue lights for the time and what motion sensor has just been set off making it difficult to read it from across the room. Actually, one needs to be directly in front of it to read it. I wish they had used white instead of blue. I could not find any setting to change the color of the screen readings.Update on rating: Wuloo reached out to let me know they will look into changing the receiver screen to a a color other than that bright blue. It is great to know this company takes their product and suggestions seriously. Because of that, I have updated my rating to 4 stars for customer service!

Disappointing driveway alarm
This alarm was easy to set up and with the sensitivity set on next to lowest, we have no false alarms. It detects both cars and people in our driveway. Love the choices of tones and the included chargers and screwdriver. Great product and company.Update: both sensors quit working after 3 months. They will not charge. I even replaced the battery in one and still won’t charge. Writing to the company got no response at all. Too bad because while they worked, they were great.

Works as advertised - so far.
I have two (2) driveways with cantilever gates - One gate has a motor and the other is opened or closed by hand.I had a problem with someone climbing over the gate without the motor and coming onto the property. So I bought this monitor set to have two (2) monitors at each gate. I used the sensitivity setting that was the " MId 2 " level on three (3) of the four (4) on the # 4 - I went with the highest senitivty level setting because of the distance to the gate. When using the " Mid 2 " setting you can set it aimed high so the dog can walk under it without setting off the alarm. On the " Hi " - the highest setting it reaches out to 40 feet to 50 feet easy but the neighbors cat will ring the chime. I used the family dog to setup the other monitors on the " Mid 2 " setting and they work great but you should trim the trees and bushes so when the wind blows the palm frowns and tree branches around - you are not getting false alarms. Also this is important to make sure when you unbox the equipment to fully charge the monitors before mounting outside. There is a on-off switch - so turn the unit off then hook to the supplied AC power adapter - you will see a red light then after 4 to 5 hours the red light will turn green and then and only then are you fully charged - it takes more than " a couple of hours " like some characters have said on YouTube. After it is fully charged then you can turn it on and pair it with the base unit and set the sensitivity level and the channel number which is 1 thru 8 and you can set the ring or chime sound if you want to or just go with the factory setup on sound. But remember the charging takes way longer than most realize - I charged two on Friday night and charged two on Saturday and had everything fully charged late Saturday afternoon. So far the solar panels seem to be working okay - I have had plenty of rain and no problems - it has a tiny o-ring gasket on the backside because you have to unscrew the back to get inside to set the sensitivity and the channel #. With two (2) on each driveway some one walking around will set off both units - so you will know it's not the dog or cat.

service is 10out of 10
i had a problem with the receiver on my driveway alarm after working perfect for 8 weeks and i just asked if they might have a quick fix and immediately they sent a new one that was here in 5 days… more than i expected so for sure would recommend this company to anyone wanting to purchase something from them…

Perfect for my yard. We also have coyotes so it warns me when they are around the house.

Perfect driveway/door announcements
These driveway/door alarms work so well that I wish I had them years earlier. I purchased the 2 sensor and 1 receiver kit, and have one at the driveway and one above the door. No problem transmitting around corners, concrete walls, etc, 50mtrs/150ft away perfectly with no wi-fi required. Positioned with tape to wall at first to find perfect angle and point to pick up people movement but exclude the plants blowing in the wind, and when just right then screwed to walls. Now, no need for doorbell or gate button as they activate with no false alarms and you can chose from ding-dong to different melodies. I'm impressed with the manual's clarity and the quality of the product.

Doesn't last long
Worked good for a couple weeks, and now it's not working. I tried resetting it, repairing, put the sensors on the charger again and repositioned them. Still doesnt work, very disappointed and I can no longer get a refund as you only have 30days from purchase date. Not a happy customer
