Break-In Prevented,
I purchased the SC-1000 system several months ago. It was very straightforward to set up. I use it in silent mode as the siren cannot be heard outside of the house. I disabled the siren manually. If the system is triggered the first sound you hear is the dialer repeating the emergency message I have recorded. This prevents a burglar from finding the unit and ripping out the phone cord. So by the time they hear the message, it’s too late.
I live alone on the edge of Detroit and have it set up to dial my cell phone if triggered. I have been in “test” mode as I have a cat and didn’t want to call the police with a false alarm; no false alarms for three months.
Earlier this week the system called me with an alarm. I work 40 minutes from home and decided to check it out as a possible false alarm. It wasn’t. The thieves had broken into the house through the back door. They must have heard the message and left immediately because nothing was taken; even some cash lying on the dining room table. I would call that a success.
I plan to add an siren to be placed outside of the house to alert neighbors which was recommended by the police.

|Works perfectly – love the key fob!,
We purchased this because we basically wanted something for our French door. My husband is very careful about making sure all the doors are dead-bolted at night, but the French doors seem awful easy to kick in if you really wanted to. Additionally, we have a couple teenagers, and we sleep on a different floor than they do. We don’t want anyone sneaking out at night.
So, we purchased this system to cover a couple windows and the French door, and to allow us to sleep a little easier. I usually have no problem with anything technical – in fact, I love pushing buttons! But for some reason I was very nervous about setting this up. It sat in the box for almost two weeks before I decided to tackle it. But once I did, it was easy. I set it up, hooked up the phone dialer (which my husband thinks is amazing, by the way.) I liked the key fob best. You can enable or disable the alarm from it, and it contains a panic button. And this thing is LOUD! We are very happy with our choice. We may add a water alarm to the system as well. Great system!

|Didn’t work out,
We are currently under contract to one of those home monitoring companies and are looking to get something on our own and out of their contract. We had hoped this would be the one.
Unfortunately we had a number of times when the alarm would go off for no reason. I don’t need false alarms to drag me home from work or create unnecessary panic. We made adjustments and did some trouble shooting, but the phantom alarms continued.
Installing the unit is very easy and the instructions are clearcut to use. But when we called the company to ask questions about the product, we only received one call back (when we were not home), and after we returned the call, we never heard back from them again. Perhaps it was just some glitch or miscommunication. But we’ve decided to continue looking until we find the right match.
