Wireless Alarm - At This Price What's Wrong With It?

[OnOff]

I was thinking of fitting a burglar alarm to the buy to let property I've just purchased. I take my main tools and test gear away with me every night but thinking things like steps, ladders etc that I leave there. I've even known the pikeys to gut an empty place of all the pipework. So..........as a quick fix was thinking a wireless alarm and came across this one:

GET Wireless BURGLAR Alarm System with Auto Dial INTRUDER ALERT | eBay

Seems to have plenty of features when compared to the "known" wireless ones like Yale, Response etc that I've seen. At this price I just wondered if I'm missing something! Thinking of it only as a short term thing.

Cheers

I always have thought that wireless alarms are for the DIY market or alarm installers not proper sparks.

I wouldnt say any plants in the reviews either, all had issues of some sort, I think if you know what you are doing, and dont expect too much then its a goer,

some people think buying a 50quid wireless system is gong to be as good as next doors 500
