I finally had to turn mine off as part of it is on a metal cyclone fence and was killing birds, not what I intended it for.

It looks like everyone has already answered the questioin re the ample volume. Just want to make some comments that might help newcomers: Use the aperture(s) that are supplied, that will decrease the distance and sensitivity, if animals are a problem. Also I use mine on an electric timer so that it is only active at night. ALso don't aim the sensor at nearby bushes or trees because they will trigger the sensor during windy conditions. You can always find the perfect location that will provide adequate protection against human intruders.

Dont know but I have had mine out on the fence for over a year and it is still working!!!!

Sorry our trees are to far away to trip the sensor. Our trips are from people, pets and vehicles, the larger the object the farther away the trip seems to happen. As a side note still running on batteries installed 10 months previous.

Hi Deb. I have 4 acres that is just a flat field with no trees. I cannot get the system to work for my entire yard. 2 acres is about the max you can get where it works "most" of the time. I have had a lot of issues with the system over the past year and a half. It works some days and not others. Every 3 months or so I have to re-teach the fence boundary or it stops working all together. If you really have to keep the dog in the yard, I would not recommend this system to you unless your willing to do the constant maintenance. I have two very intelligent border collies. They seem to know when the boundary is working and when it's not but they have been in the system long enough now that they do hang in the yard almost all the time. Chasing the neighbors cows is really the only time the one tests the system and when it's working, he turns around. Otherwise cows beware.... I would not purchase again and they do not allow you to return the system for a refund (I asked). I would go with a wired system for the money as this one is not worth the $800 it cost for its quality and reliability. Thanks and good luck with your decision. After typing all this, I see this is for the radial version. I have the custom shaped fence which allows you to build a custom fence. I do not have this exact unit.

New battery's, many walls in between ? Interference ? I have my smoker on the back porch, 50 feet away and 4-5 walls in between and never had a problem. Maybe defective ? I do remeber reading about two models and they looked identical but one had very limited range by the reviews I read. Good luck.

Sorry, your yard is full of rocks, concrete or pieces of metal. I don't have that problem and never have. You assume!!!!! that I drive over these item. Wrong. Rebuilt in July, got four cutting only. Guess, what Outdoor Power Deals has a one year Warranty on this item. Have a nice day !!!

You might have placed it in the wrong location where it can pick up motion from bushes or tree branches. I also had a problem with the afternoon sun. I made cover to block the sun and placed it above the sensor. That helped alot

It doesn't work period. NOTHING is afraid of it. Deer and birds eat my entire garden while it makes its worthless noise. I just threw it away in my garbage after 6 months of NOTHING. Send me the shipping, I'll dig mine out of the garbage and send it to you.

sorry you are burning your grass we are having the same problem. I feel the manufacture has a defect here. my husband has tried everything to stop this and the only thing that worked for him was he has to mow the grass twice as much to avoide the burn marks. sorry I could not be more help with the problems.

Hello MMW I can't get rid of anything! This thing is not worth the trouble to order. But, here is something I tried with rats and squirrels that were eating my auto wires and gas lines. Also in my riding mower. MINT! Try and put mint plants in the area you see the lizards. What I do is bundle fresh mint and attach it under the hood. Works great. I hope this has helped. David

Mine worked fantastic for about 1 year pretty far down my driveway. Then I started having problems and no longer works. If it's out of the elements I would recommend. If not I wouldn't.

I absolutely adore my Toshiba, but this noise is driving me INSANE. Figured there was just some fur in there (I have two cats), but I'm glad to know that it's not just mine. I'm gonna try the oil thing. The tap didn't really work.

Greg said about it meeting resistance. If you stop there you are the problem. Push it a little further and make sure it is seated properly. If you still have the problem get it replaced.

The one we bought runs for quite a while - Maybe it is defected. I did three lawns with it. I am very satisfied with mine. Maybe yours is defected - call the company - they may be able to replace the battery - check if the battery is fully charged. hope this may help - check if the battery is all the way in
