Question: I have seen transmitters 2500 and 3000 models, one says duty cycle.  What are the differences in these?
Document: I read a lot of good reviews about this unit. I tried everything possible to make it work, but it just did not detect like it should have. If it says it can detect at 2500 feet, I expected it to detect cars and people 100% of the time at the end of my driveway, which was only 700 - 800 feet from the base station.The unit itself does seem cheaply made.
Wow! Day and night from the 3000 series.The deer set it off a lot so I have to find a spot away from their normal crossing. Also, I have 4 of the series 3000 wireless stations. They will be worthless after my last one dies. I need at least 2 more of these stations but they are too pricey right now. Also, I want to wait for them to add tone/chime functionality.
They have 2 set up and if one goes off they assume someone/something is on the driveway but if both go off they know someone is probably coming down the driveway to the house.The packaging says it will pick up several miles away, I'm sure Dad will test that statement!
If you really NEED to go to the edge or out of sight distance than this is the only one to purchase. I read a lot of reviews and looked at what some other models (non MURS) touted as able to reach long distances but from my personal experience of them and now the real MURS product to compare, I have to impress upon anyone who is looking for REAL distance, DO NOT look any further, this is exactly/more than you can expect!
"Alert zone 1, alert zone 1" is why I could not give this 5 stars. They should have added chimes to its ability. In spite of that, however, this is an amazing product and much better than the previous series DK-WMT-3000. I have used the rubber hose and wireless for 3000 series for about 5 years. Only 1 works now out of about 5 of them. They also lacked reliability and range on their best day.
Here's a device that does what it says.
Go ahead and spend the bucks for this model. I tried a cheaper model from this company and was disappointed probably due to the distance to my driveway entrance. You can add several &#34;transmitters&#34; and use the same base unit. It will tell you which unit is ringing the base. You can put an extra bell (electronic speaker) anywhere but they are not wireless and must be wired.
Purchased the receiver and two transmitters for our property, which is heavily treed and hilly. The system works very well, but the volume from the receiver is too low, and when I inquired about hooking up an expernal amplified speaker, I could not engage them in a conversation. It will hook to an external buzzer, but that will not tell what zone has had the activity. Again, works well, but the volume and the inability to hook it to an external amplified speaker has us questioning the money spent.
We live on a ranch with a mile-long road to the highway, and I wanted a system to let me know when somebody drives in. I bought the Dakota alert plus an extra transmitter, and now have a pretty good idea when somebody's driving in the ranch road. It took a bit of tinkering, the transmitters came configured for maximum sensitivity, so every time the wind blew we seemed to get false alerts.
Tried several other driveway alerts, including an earlier Dakota ( that was junk ) and this MURS system is the best I've found....which is not to say perfect, but lot better than the previous units I've tried.Have both the magnetic probe and the motion sensor transmitters. The magnetic probe is a battery eater compared to the motion sensor, using a set (6 AA ) of batteries about every 3 months compared to the motion sensor, I get about a year on that unit.
Answer: I have a MURS system by Dakota Alert. The 2500 and 3000 models are a totally different system. Don't waste your money on them, go with a MURS. I had the other type but it didn't work well at all. I am very happy with the MURS and plan to buy one for my mother's house.Also you can add transmitters (ex front and back yards) and it will tell you which transmitter detected movement.Don't hesitate to call Dakota Alert for questions and to help you set it up. They are very helpful and friendly.
