Bought this today at a "mom and pop" hardware store. At $13, I thought the price was quite reasonable.

It has an alarm built in that detects movement a certain number of times and then sounds a 110 decimal alarm. Resets itself etc.
It uses 9 LR44 batteries which last around 2 years.
I think it is closer to 90 - 100 decibels.
What do you think?

The author gets low points in the I.Q. department.

I give him a 20.

So Jeff.

Do you want to know how I rate your I.Q.?
