i was quoted 2 types:

1) sensor with automatic caller to your handphone if movement is detected by sensor - pay RM500-1600 depends on the number of sensors. Then RM 75/mth service charge

2) Automatic gate motor with alarm system - if without CCTV - RM 2000, with CCTV - RM3500. No monthly service charges. Can watch the video in CCTV via 3G/broadband internet. Anything detected through sensor you will be called via handphone

looks like the 2nd one is better wor....

but hor.. if u wanan watch 3g need to pay rite?

yeah that automatic gate with alarm system sounds like a better deal.

You need to install phone line in your house, so whenever your sensors detect something, it will call your handphone through your own house phone.

3G of course have to pay lah. sad.gif

That company offer package without automatic gate claimed that they provide better service blah blah but they charge $$ for every damn things they install

And oh, by the way, the wireless sensors are operated with factory installed battery. i.e. you have to call the installer to install new batteries  once it run out. Also, is hard to tell whether the sensor is working or not.

yeah I just had a chat with a fellow who install alarm system, he told me that now there is a new system imported from UK which all the sensors and devices are linked by wifi. So there is no wires needed which may look ugly if you install it on your wall
