I do not use it any more. The alert is not loud enough. I purchased it for using it in shopping mall, airport, or other public areas, where a lot of noises are present. In many places, I even cannot hear the alter because the noise surrounding me. The alert is loud enough when I was testing it at home or in our neighborhood.

I wear a hearing aid and I can hear the beep if I am within 20 feet. With out my hearing aid it is marginal at twenty feet.

I think its beeping because the battery is low. You have to charge it. User guide is I think online. Google it. best of luck

When used in conjunction with the receiver it beeps as you get near. The transmitter (what your looking at here) beeps at the same rate. The receiver, not included in this package, beeps faster the closer you get. You can also turn off the receiver beeping allowing you to just hear the transmitter (on the cat) beeping (which might be useful if your friend is looking in the house for the cat). Once you get within a few feet of the cat the receiver does seem to shutoff. It figures you've found the cat. We normally use ours to find the cat outside, but we've also used it to find the cat in the house as well. Hope this helps. When used in conjunction with the receiver it beeps as you get near.

Do you hear an occasional beeping? When it's on mute, you can hear them but they cannot hear you. But it beeps every 10 seconds or so to indicate that it's muted. If not, check your connections. If nothing else, it's a faulty unit.

Yes, mine also beeps at seemingly nothing. But I think we've been able to narrow it down to high winds. So now we just unplug it when it's windy.

i hear this "beeping" as i describe it, as well, and have found others on youtube that experience this as well with this camera, it is quite annoying, although its not nearly as loud as you make it seem.. most people dont notice it even, but once you do it is quite annoying... i wondered if i got a defective unit but after finding many others that also have this it seems to be just how the camera is , i still have 20 some days to return it and i probably will because of this, oh well.

Beeping happens only when u first place it on to the base, after that there are no more beeping.

The alarm is loud inside the home. Not so loud outside. Having ongoing issues with the base sensing one door alarm & it on & off it flashes at the base. Going to try adding another signal enhancer. Already added one.

It does stop beeping after a few minutes but not just one minute. I never paid attention to when it stops because then I'd stop it myself. It's very light weight so if you need to do something in another room and think you might get distracted or not hear it beep you can just take it with you and you'll hear when it beeps. I had mine for a few years and was very pleased with it. I just put another battery in but it didn't work anymore. Will order another one.

Most likely a defect, nothing has been listed about a beep less updated version. I would consider yourself lucky though unless there are other malfunctions. The beep on mine is ludicrously loud.

It depends on the terrain...on a flat surface I have picked up KA band about 1 mile away. Generally speaking, you'll usually start to hear slight beeps at about a mile and steadier beeps as you get closer. I am pleased about this detector...good value for money. Good luck...

Yes, there is a beep option. Alarm repeats ever couple of minutes for about a half hour in case you have been out of range, outside or such. I find the latter very helpful.

It should beep from one room to another room, 20-30 feet, without any problem and if it doesn't then it needs replaced. I will send postage paid, delivery confirmation label to you! God bless, Debby 405-517-3686

I believe it only beeps if the unit has detected a surge. Once the surge clears and the unit is functioning properly, it should not continue beeping. The 3 units that I have do not continuously beep as you describe and there have been several brownouts in my neighborhood. Make sure you see a green light under the red one. If not, there's no surge protection and that could be why its beeping. I would contact Customer Service and verify that you didn't receive a bad unit.

Sounds like it needs new batteries. I read in the manual that it will continually flash or beep when the batteries are low.
