SimpliSafe 105dB Auxiliary Siren - Compatible with Gen 3 Home Security System

Loud! Easy to connect to system and a no brainer for your home.

Loud! Easy connect!

One of my main concerns with Simplisafe was the potential for smash and crash. You can look it up on the internet, it is a big concern with alarm systems. The thief finds the base station during the entry delay or shortly after the alarm goes off and smashed it before notification can be sent out. Even though alarm sirens are loud, usually it is only inside the house and is unlikely to draw attention with the doors and windows closed.I added two of these sirens and hid the base station. One siren is outdoors and the other is indoors. When the alarm goes off, the base station and both of the sirens will be sounding loudly. It would be hard to pinpoint the location of the basestation with multiple sirens sounding earpiercing noise. The external siren will attract attention to the house and no thief would want to stick around.I paired the sirens, cleaned the mounting surface with alcohol, and the siren mounted securely.

Very loud! Connected easy. Good

The Simplisafe support page says how to test this:=========- Place System Into Test Mode- ... press the button on the top of the Extra Siren. You’ll hear the Base Station announce, “Siren” to confirm the test was successful.NOTE: The Extra Siren will also emit a loud beep during this test. Please be sure to protect your ears, as the Extra Siren is equipped with a 105dB siren.=========To me, that implies that the siren will beep as loud as the siren alert sound. But it doesn't.To actually test the siren's alarm sound, I had to call their customer support people who armed the system in practice mode and then had me trigger an alarm. Then the siren sounded fully (and very loudly).

Works As it should And Is of course 100 compatible

These external sirens are very loud. I purchased this one, but as an add on to my system. But then found out that there was one in in the system I ordered. So I ended up returning this one unopened. However, I will say these are easy to install. They are very loud and worth the adding to your system to potentially scare anyone away that may attempt to gain entry into your home. I like the Simplisafe System overall. I however dod not recommend their cameras. Siren is a go! Thank you Amazon for allowing me to return it since I didn't need it after all.

Maybe I just don’t know the setting, but the default siren in the base unit is less than anemic. This was a breeze to install and solves that problem. I’d consider this essential for ANY Simplysafe system. It turns the system into an ALARM system. Without it, things get scary for the crook only after the police arrive.
