    Thanks TA, need to protect all those bargains I've bought over the years - many of them still boxed and unused lol.

    Wouldnt buying 2 alarms sets be cheaper than buying one with an extra sensor lol..

    How the hell did you guys pay less than $28? At the checkout, the balance owing showed $ 28.
    On the side note, which option would be better - spend $ 28 for this crappy home alarm system or buy padlocks worth $ 28 at Bunnings?

    • +5

      nah buy alarm stickers and stick it to the window.. Thats about $1

      • +1

        But this product includes 8 stickers - count 'em - 8!

  • Cost me $28 free pick up.

    I got one of these on clearance form dick smith for about the same price, many months ago, and its rather useless.

    The sensors are OK, but the system design is awful.
    You cannot use it like a normal alarm because it is so easy to defeat. No battery backup, no remote keypad, …

    Would have been useful as a perimeter alert, but only has siren mode, no beep, and needs to be reset after each alert. Awful programming.
    Waste of time and money unless you can use the sensors on a better system - but they are not standard, so good luck.

      Did you post that bargain?

      • I got it from ozb. May have been too few to warrant its own page, and listed on other dse deal.

      • I just asked someone who bought it, they had similar comments about it.

      i feel a bit better about missing out after reading that

    • yep, all of the cheap crap is usually exactly that..

    I don't have a front yard or a fence so some window protection will definitely come in handy. Don't want to wait til the burglars get access to my apartment… but I am on the 42nd floor.

  • Has anyone actually had a good experience with these?

    My friend says they're hopeless, even for $28.

    • Can you elaborate a bit more?

  • I got one but then cancelled the order due to all the bad comments above

    • there is only ONE "my friend says", where about "all the bad comments above"?

      • Had a read on the net they dont seem like great systems

  • +5

    Doesn't matter if they're sh**t. It's good for reducing insurance premiums.

    • good point!.

  • Hooray! Missed the bargain.

  • I got one but then cancelled the order due to all the bad comments above

    • I'm going to do the same. that and i have no use for it… damn you OZBargains.

      I really hate the photo of the guy who appears on their 'product not found' page.

      He looks like he just farted and doesn't care.

      • his ass is saying sorry though…

  • Printed this last night,seen only a couple of stores with stock left,but could not call last night to find out,was gonna go to masters and bunnings to get for same price ut cause this was out of stock online and maybe not even available in store i went at open time in store and got the last one at port kennedy.
    I thought i try there first and if not try my luck with bunnings or master see how it goes,for the sake of a few dollars did not want to maybe miss harvey's deal.
    Paid off it was showing as 118 on the box showed them my print out and checked and said yes thats ok,a customer seen i had got this said any good?said not really but better than nothing and a good deal.
    So glad as i was gonna buy this for much more last week,i have been missing a few things i been buying lately where priced have reduced after buying so this one paid off for me.
    28 its got to be worth that.

  • Went to Bunnings Mentone (VIC), had 1 left, refused to price match the printout without calling a HN store to verify, but they had me stand there for 15 minutes so I just gave up and walked out.

  • none in Brisbane seems like it,was heading to the coast so picked one up from there, they had one left. :/

  • Got a call from the Springvale store saying that "sorry we over sold, have no stock and cannot get any from any other stores."

    Had no choice but to cancel…

    • Got a call from them too, they left a message asking to call back. This is the second time springvale have pulled this stunt on me.

  • Has anybody tried third party PIR Sensors with this alarm?

  • Just picked up my order from Melboune QV store. They have like 6 units awaiting collection.

  • damit forgot to pick mine up over the weekend… will have to get the mrs to grab it…
