Solar Outdoor Motion Sensor Alarm - Dog Barking & Gunshot Sound 130db Motion Detector Alarm Light,with Remote Controller for Home, Villa,Yard,Chicken coop,Farm,Barn

The media could not be loaded. This machine is wonderful. The barking and gunshots were a little obnoxious (I thought I would attract police, lol) , but since you can record your own voice- it’s golden. Wildlife does not like the human voice, so I could record my voice gently telling the racoons they have to move on. Plus it doesn’t bother the neighbors. I have two questions though- how do you know if it’s fully charged? And since mine is in the sun, it gets very hot to the touch. Will this affect the longevity of it? I would definitely recommend this product. I do wish the instructions were clearer but in all, I am so pleased.

I had two cats that started pooping in my boathouse tent structure. So I set up my game camera to figure out who it was. In the meantime my wife suggested getting this. It works great!The game camera showed two culprits. One that came in the afternoon and the other at 3am or so.After we received this scarecrow I got pictures of both cats coming in and getting caught and running for their lives. The middle of the night cat came back 2 weeks after his first scare. Came in from opposite direction and was super cautious and clearly looking for the shooting barking dogs. He got caught again and almost came out of his skin. Neither cat has returned since.This device has sensitive motion detection and a solar charger. It works in pitch black and stays charged. Device also comes with a plug in charger.My only complaint is that when you activate it, it goes through the whole gun shot dog barking thing.It can trigger in my case with wind gusts shaking the tent structure and can go off frequently under those conditions so I turn it off if it’s a gusty day.But the gunshot barking thing is terrifying to critters. Since I’ve set it up, it not only got the cats out of there but it also scared the crap out of a raccoon. It catches me every morning when I retrieve the game camera.

Overview: They work well overall, but need a sensitivity setting and more customization. They sometimes do not work well in rain/fog. If it's a windy day/night, they're going to be sounding frequently. They really need a feature to upload your own sound since the recording option is just fair quality at best. Bluetooth/app functions would be a huge improvement.Details: We purchased a few of these since the deer keep eating all the flowers, even the buds and leaves. Sprays and granules and other methods have worked, but fade over time or with the weather. These work well most of the time unless it's rainy or foggy. The solar panels seem to keep them charged, so they don't need a power cord if you can't run one. They have three volume levels. We usually keep ours on medium so it's loud enough to scare the deer and keep them away, but quiet enough to not annoy the neighbors at all hours. We keep most of ours on night-only mode, but keep in mind that if you do that, they will not work early in the morning during sunrise when animals are still active! We do keep a couple on 24-hour mode, which will work all day, but it will go off when people walk by, cars drive by (40+ feet away) or even when birds are around. These really need a sensitivity setting to allow more customization, or better yet, since everything is "smart" these days, allow pairing with Bluetooth and an app to set multiple settings. I would love to be able to set high sensitivity between certain hours, then low or medium the rest of the time. If you can handle hearing these during the day, then it's worth it to keep the deer away. Otherwise, keep them on night-only mode. Lastly, the medium volume also cannot be heard much inside the house. We have ours only a few feet away from one of the windows and we can barely hear it inside with the window closed. I don't hear them at all at night, but the deer definitely do and they stay away! If these had more customization for settings (especially with an app), I'd happily give these 5 stars. There also is an option to make your own recording, but I find the default noise works well enough. I'd also like to have the option of just having the dogs barking sound without the gunshots. These also really need better programming to distinguish a vehicle vs an animal. Overall they help, but they have a lot of room for improvement.

Love it!!!!It’s so loud still works after 5-6 months!!!Makes my coop predator free and protects my girlsIf you are thinking about getting it. GET IT!

We purchased the device to discourage deer, raccoons & rabbits from eating the garden plants & bird seed. It did nothing to scare away the critters.

I am so happy to have this thing. It's so loud, but it's so cool. And yet I hope it works.I believe it will,if nothing else to wake up my neighbor and make them aware of our danger.And thank you for creating this and sending it in such a timely manner and making it affordable.I love it thank you..

First off, as others have reported the prerecorded sound is a very loud gun shot followed by barking dogs. It will scare you even when you know what it is. There is only the one prerecorded sound. You can add your own recording via the built-in microphone. Then you can choose which of the recordings to use when it detects motion. We recorded dogs barking from a sound bite we played on our computer, which was much quieter than the very loud prerecorded gunshot and dogs. I'm sure our neighbors appreciate it!So now we set it up in our front yard and successfully tested it. A day later it was breezey out and all night long we could it going off as the plants moving in the wind triggered it. Well at least it wasn't terribly loud.A couple of days later, I triggered it as I walked by and instead of my recording, it played the loud gunshot and dogs. I just about cr@pp3d myself. It immediately switched back to my recording on the next trigger.So the negatives are that it triggers easy and occasionally plays the default recording.The pluses are that it stays charged via the built in solar panel and that it seems to be keeping the deer out of our yard.An occasional loud gunshot is the price I have to pay!
