5 out of 5 stars Works exactly as advertised   November 2, 2008
Sensor works just as advertised. Easy to install. You set the desired distance (1,2 or 3 feet) from front bumper (setting on back of unit) and then yellow light flashes at first slowly, then rapidly and finally red. When red you are right at distance set. Highly recommend this product.

5 out of 5 stars Simple and useful   October 12, 2008
I was skeptical when I bought this, but I was pleasantly surprised. It was extremely easy to mount on the garage wall. I set the switch at 2 feet and was done. This thing works perfectly. My wife has used it for two weeks and loves it. I bought a second one for myself. Definitely worth the money.


3 out of 5 stars Good product, not a great product   September 23, 2008

This product does what it advertises. It works great for fixed distances of 1, 2, or 3 feet, but 2'6" is out of the question. There are numerous products that do adjustable ranges, but they are not as reliable as this fixed distance product.


5 out of 5 stars Works so well I have 2 of them in my garage   June 14, 2008

I installed the first one about 2 months ago and found it works very well, so I added one for the other car in the garage several weeks ago. When you get about 5 feet from the sensor the red light starts flashing, which is the hint to slow down. You set a switch on the back of the sensor for 1, 2 or 3 feet, which is the when the light changes to a solid red.

Some reviewers said they had a problem with trying to use 2 units in the same garage, because if the units are too close together, both units might sense the same car entering and would send signals that interfere with each other. The way I tested to see if this would be a problem before I ordered the 2nd unit is by noting that when I brought the 2nd car into the garage (on the side w/o the sensor) I noted that the installed sensor in front of the other car did not flash. This told me the sensors could be installed far enough apart that they would only "sense" the car immediately in front of it.

Great product!!
