4 out of 5 stars chamberlain wireless alert system   November 16, 2008
Robert S. Veach (yorkville il.)
Product works great. The only proplem is sometimes, the receiver unit locks up and I have to unscrew the case and remove the 9 volt battery to complete a system re-boot.


1 out of 5 stars Not a happy camper   November 13, 2008
J. Johnson (Castle Rock, wa)
I received the Chamberlain reporter RWA300R on Nov. 12th. After reading the instructions front to back I installed the sending unit 110' from the base station, this being the best position for my application. The signal had to travel through a garage door and 2X6 wall construction. Now, You have to be within 2 feet of the sending unit to activate it which it is advertised at 30' and a set up of 10'-20'. After much trial and error I have come to the conclusion that this particular unit is "JUNK". I have since moved the sending unit to the edge of the garage door where I am about 32' from the base station. After two days of frustration I think I will be sending this unit back!!! Thanks but no thanks


1 out of 5 stars This is a piece of junk   November 9, 2008
A nurse who's seen it all
I purchased two of these units over the course of a year and each one just stopped working. Do not buy one of these units.


5 out of 5 stars Works GREAT!!!!!!   November 9, 2008
Rick Fox (Backwoods of Indiana)
We have had this alert system in use for about 9 months and it works very well. We live down a 350 foot long wooded lane and it is so nice to have confidence that people can't sneak in! As long as you keep a good battery in the transmitter and the antennas in a vertical position, it works every time. Great buy-- great value!


4 out of 5 stars Driveway alarm works OK...   November 2, 2008
J. Gaertner (Keswick, VA United States)
I purchased this driveway alarm for the drive coming to my workshop so I would not miss deliveries. It arrived very quickly and was easy to set up. It is important to follow the procedures outlined on the instructions. Direct sunlight does cause the unit some problems with not chiming. Some testing may be necessary to find the best location for installation.
