Infrared Motion Alarm

By Beevn B Thacks


The priciest area in my residence is no more than a tiny home office next to a dark room. It houses professional cameras and components that I have accumulated as an independent photographer for image banking agencies.

It drove my wife up the wall that I tended to circumnavigate these rooms in a late night stupor, worried my moneymaker would be burgled and lose my equipment. Surely, we aren't too poor to buy an infrared motion alarm, she snapped.

Among the diverse range of infrared motion alarm products I later saw across websites, none would indeed break the bank. Although a good number were tied to total home security systems, I wanted one separate item.

For its good looks and slight frame, I zoomed in on the Mace Motion Alert. It did not hurt my the symmetry-conscious part of my brain that mounting is a choice of edgewise or plumb.

Engineered to discern action inside a marked location, this passive infrared motion alarm can be locked up by a personal security code and does not cease sounding otherwise. I can replace the alarm sound with a dual-tone chime.

For an equivalent advantage, I zeroed in next on the Mini Alert Alarm. The undetectable barricading triangle it creates utilizing a passive IR system would set the alarm off when penetrated. With both operating on batteries, I was spared of knotty cords.

I purchased both infrared motion alarm products. They were ample for reinforcing my home office that I planned to have home security systems installed later in the week.

I let my wife come looking for me in my home office after returning from her job. For someone who just set an alarm off unknowingly, she sure appeared happy, happy to have peaceful nights head.
