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.

Hello Adi,

Regardless of the manufacturers 'blurb' you will compromise coverage with pet detectors, :no:

Is there no alternative? :yes:

Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.

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.

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.

Usually there is weight limit in crawling object. Depends of the detector but 38kg's with detectors that I have used.

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.

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.
