Perfect toddler monitor! (Pro Tip: Use with a smart plug)
I have been using this chime for over a year to alert me if my toddler tries to leave their room in the middle of the night. It works perfectly, but here is the best way to use it:The Smart Plug Hack:I plugged the receiver unit into a smart plug (like a Kasa or Amazon plug). I set a schedule so the chime only receives power between 10 PM and 6 AM. This way, the door can open and close all day long without making noise, but as soon as bedtime hits, the alarm system is automatically active. It saves me from manually unplugging it or messing with the volume every morning.The Features:• Volume: The adjustable volume is great. I keep it loud enough to wake me up, but you can turn it down if you're a light sleeper.• Tones: There are tons of options, but we stick to a simple chime that isn't too jarring.• Adhesion: After a year, the sensors are still stuck firmly to the door frame. No peeling at all.Verdict:If you have a sleepwalker or an escape artist, this is a cheap and effective peace of mind. Highly recommend the smart plug combo!Ver másVer menos
