UsmooJoySolar Sound & Strobe Light Alarm 360° Motion Detector, Record 20S Custom Message Siren Security Alert System for Farm Barn Villa (Red)

Used for Halloween. Made a custom scream. The motion detection is quite sensitive as well. I saw some other posts complain about it.not being loud enough... I can hear it from inside my house and I am pretty sure my neighbors could too. No complaints at all... other than my chickens are not scared of it and I was hoping it would keep them off the back porch... but that isn't the units fault.

Unit works fine but picture shows two units and actually selling one unit for $35.00.

No longer have issues with animals near our coop!!

Good luck trying to return this item.

This looks a bit scary and industrial so keep that in mind if you are concerned about how it will look where you are able to place it--both for appearance sake and also as a deterrent if seen by humans during the day.It comes with a small charging cord for charging from a laptop but I think I charged it with my cellphone charging cord from AC outlet. It didn't take long. I wanted to test the sounds indoors, rather than risk a loud daytime noise that would startle neighbors. You really do need the instructions to know how to work the little remote, which does seem to work. The setting are also on the bottom. You can install this either in the ground on a plastic post (the whole thing is plastic, so make sure not to mow into it, for instance) or on someplace higher up, using a supplied attachment and screws. I installed on the ground near the vegetable garden, and where I suspected racoons were entering at night. I was a little nervous about what might happen!The first night I was in the house and as far as possible from the site I'd chosen. I heard a truck back-up sound and wondered what a truck was doing in the alley in the dark of evening. I realized it was the alarm going off! It wasn't too bad and stopped soon enough that I don't think a neighbor would be too bothered.The next day I used the remote to turn it off and it seems to have worked. Then I tried to turn it back on, but haven't noticed it going off again. I'm not sure if it still has its original charge and I haven't had time to check to make sure it is positioned to catch the sun during the day. If you are attaching this by screwing it into your house or garage, be sure you select a site that will get plenty of sun to recharge the solar panel system.I may end up thinking this deserves 5 stars but for now am withholding a little because I haven't seen how well it will charge from the sun and I thought it took a little time to figure out and that I'll need to save the instructions for the remote since it's marked only with four letters and not symbols that are in any way intuitive. That means one more set of instructions to figure out where to file!
