Constructed with a 2.5mm ABS housing, this deterrent is built to be a bit sturdier than standard entry-level models. It features five different operational modes, including a variable frequency setting and a flashing LED strobe for nighttime use. The lightweight design and rear keyhole slots make it easy to move the unit from a ground stake to a wall mount as your garden organization needs change.
The device utilizes a polycrystalline solar panel for power and can also be charged via USB, providing a helpful backup during winter months. Specifications indicate a sensor range of up to 30 feet within a 110-degree arc. To maintain the life of the batteries, it is helpful to aim the sensor away from high-traffic areas like sidewalks to prevent constant triggering.
Applying a small amount of silicone sealant around the solar panel seam can provide an extra layer of protection for the internal electronics during heavy storm seasons.
- Five-mode operation: Provides various settings to find the right balance for your specific environment.
- LED strobe: Offers a visual deterrent that is particularly effective for nocturnal animals like raccoons.
- Redundant charging: Features both solar and USB inputs for year-round power management.
While the unit is designed for outdoor use, the mounting stake is hollow plastic and performs best when the soil is softened before installation. To help the animal stay startled by the device, it is sometimes helpful to change the mode or move the unit slightly every few weeks.
