Tools and Hardware Reviews of THE REPORTER RWV-400R Wireless Alert System with 2-Way Voice Communication

Customer Review: A Great Product
Summary: 5 Stars

After reading the generally good reviews for the Reporter Wireless alert system without intercom, I purchased the Reporter Wireless Alert System with Intercom along with a total of 4 wireless intercom sensors.

Have a corner lot near a main road with ample walkby traffic and wanted to give our family an alert if anybody makes it to our driveway, frontyard or backyard. Have had the system for about a week and it operates great. Has two types of alarm sounds for the central unit, one is a type of doorbell sound with varying beeps to distinquish the specific sensor that is set off, and the other option is loud beeping noises with the number of beeps distinquishing said sensor. We have kept it on the doorbell mode for use in the house.

The range for each sensor is about 30 feet and they all operated well even through a recent rainstorm. Each sensor has a normally open circuit whereby you can hook up lights, a gate opener, an outdoor alarm, or other device that is set off remotely by pressing a button on the main console after the sensor has been triggered. The sensor must be triggered to activate the remote circuitry.

The intercom portion of the system works great with no complaints - I have it set on the lowest volume and can have a clear conversation with anybody at the sensor. You have 10 seconds to talk with somebody at the sensor after it is first triggered, but once you talk, the intercom will not shut off for about 20 seconds until after you stop talking from the main console so you can listen to the person's response at the sensor. As long as you keep talking from the console within the 20 second time period, you can continue the conversation without the intercom turning off for as long as you like (as long as you say something to the remote sensor within each 20 seconds even if the remote sensor is not being activated). A well thought out feature.

It is good for keeping kids out of certain areas around the house. At night, we keep the unit by our bedside and have rest assured we will be awakened if there is there are any prowlers. Haven't had a single false alarm from any of the sensors in the week's time we've had the system installed. Installation is a breeze, but you will need to provide your own batteries. The console works with batteries (which is how we use it) or with a provided AC jack outlet.

After reading comments about the non-intercom Reporter wireless alert system, it seems the manufacturers have taken the clues from the comments made by their customers and included most all of the needed conveniences in this system. Though the main console unit is quite small, my only wish is they would make the unit in a design that can clip onto your belt so you can walk around the property with it on. This is a great system and we will be purchasing 4 more sensors for expanded coverage of our lot.
