secluded driveway and could never hear when someone came up the driveway. I really like this product and so far the quality seems to be great.

This product does exactly what I wanted it to do. It let's me know when anyone walks around the blind side of our house. Extremely easy to install.
  Wireless Motion Alert Kit-3000' Max Range July 1, 2008 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
My driveway is about 300 feet long and we do not have a visual of the entrace. If someone enters the drive, we neeeded a few seconds to secure our overly friendly dog. In most instances the alarm has functioned well. However, it does sound when there is not a vehicle or person in the drive. We do live in a rural area and there is a lot of wildlife. I just wish it was able to sound only when a car or person is detected. Too many false alarms.
  Dakota vs Chamberlain Wireless Driveway Alert May 30, 2008 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
I first purchased a Chamberlain "The Reporter" alert, returned it, and then purchased the Dakota alert. The Chamberlain is very cheaply constructed, difficult to adjust, and I could never get it to give reliable alerts, despite numerous adjustment attempts.
The Dakota is by far superior in terms of construction, performance, operational options, and ease of adjustments. It's well worth the additional $75. My only complaint about the Dakota is that it is extremely sensitive, even at the lowest settings, so I had to play around quite a bit with location and angle of the mount before I eliminated most erroneous alerts. When I called Dakota to ask for setup advice, I reached a technician who was actually very knowledgable about the technical operaton of the unit and therefore, quite helpful.
  Better than Most May 27, 2008 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
We've tried 4 different driveway alerts, and I can say this one is by far the most reliable. We've had it up for a little over a month, and it has alerted us to probably 95% of the vehicles traveling up our lane. Very few false alarms. We're happy with the product to date.
