Adi Posted September 28, 2004 Share Posted September 28, 2004 What pet detector would you lads recommend, ive used Texecom ' i wont see a pet but do' detectors. Ive blocked out the lower zones but feel im not getting a good coverage. I really can't be ar**** with it anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norman Posted September 28, 2004 Share Posted September 28, 2004 Hello Adi, Regardless of the manufacturers 'blurb' you will compromise coverage with pet detectors, Is there no alternative?

Monteey Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 Got to admit to being a bit of a sceptic when it comes to so called 'pet friendly' detectors, i mean a medium to large size dog is going to be the same size a human crawling so, anyone knowing this would just know not to stand up whilst loading the dvd and video out the window, ok i maybe taking a slightly simplistic view here but i still think that if you've got pets, lock em in somewhere without a passive when you go out, no fuss no bother.

Adi Posted September 29, 2004 Author Share Posted September 29, 2004 I take it pet DT's are the same as a standard pet PIR or do they offer a bit more performance? Having a pet put in another room is not always possible. I really can't be ar**** with it anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 1, 2004 Share Posted October 1, 2004 Usually there is weight limit in crawling object. Depends of the detector but 38kg's with detectors that I have used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rapid Racer Posted October 5, 2004 Share Posted October 5, 2004 Sorry guys I have got to disagree with you. We've been using the DS820IT for several years now without a single problem. They will allow several cats or up to 2 dogs so long as they can't get within 6 feet of the detector. And they still pick up 'human' movement better than some PIRs They're easy to fit and simple to setup too. http://www.boschsecurity.com/emea/intrusio...-shortinfo.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 5, 2004 Share Posted October 5, 2004 in my opinion a junkie thief weighs a lot less than 2 dogs...so does the dvd player he walks off with too........... give em a kennel thats what i say... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adi Posted October 8, 2004 Author Share Posted October 8, 2004 Not all customers want to lock there pets away or are cabable of doing it. One customer has a lounge, dining room and kitchen that is walk through (no doors) and a stafford who is kept in there. If it was a moggy i would tell them to put it down i hate them, but a moggy has got a lot less IR. I agree there is a compromise in coverage but if someone is ransacking a house its gonna pick them up. As for perimeter protection i dont want any cables on show. I might try PET DT's. I really can't be ar**** with it anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian c Posted October 21, 2004 Share Posted October 21, 2004 Just like to re-open this one. Any other recommendations for pet immune detectors?? I've found the Texecom Petwise to be ok ecxept with large dog's. If you don't know......ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adi Posted October 22, 2004 Author Share Posted October 22, 2004 Just like to re-open this one.Any other recommendations for pet immune detectors?? I've found the Texecom Petwise to be ok ecxept with large dog's. 28430[/snapback] Morning Brian, I put 2 Petwise in a house with an open plan lounge dining room and kitchen that has a stafford roaming around, i wouldnt class it as a large dog and not near to weight limit the petwise can look at. I put one in the lounge which also covers the dining room and one in the kitchen, but the lounge kept going off, the kitchen one ok. I tried swapping them round but no joy so ive taped off the bottom zone. There is no way of stopping the dog coming within a certain distance of detector so dont think that bosch's will do. So im all eyes aswell for any recommendations. I really can't be ar**** with it anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
