What distance can the sensor "eye" see? The description reads "400-foot range" but I'm assuming that's the range from the unit to the receiver.

You are correct on the unit to receiver. I have it set at across my street and it is about 45 feet.I have not tried it farther.

It appears to me the "eye of the sensor" can easily see about 100 feet and probably more if there is a direct line of sight. We use the unit to advise us of entry into our driveway - the "eye" of the sensor is located about 200 feet from the actual entry to the driveway so when a car or truck aligns itself in the drive the alarm goes off. The sensor from the receiver (the alarm) is a good 400-feet or more away and it works just fine. Hope this helps.

I set the sensor at number "7" and it sprayed approximately 32 feet. The distance depends on whether or not your terrain is level and if you have it pointed up or down. My terrain is level and I have my unit as level as possible.

I first placed the receiver about 50 ft away. It would trigger on when the garage door opened but not turn off when the door was closed. Contacted Skylink by email and received a response within 24 hours who suggested I place the receiver closer. It works well at 25 feet.

I have an identical situation and it works very well at least 200 feet away. Hope this helps.

I would not expect it to. The Amazon site claims "Motion detecting range 40 ft Operating range up to 800 ft" Can you place the sensor within the 40 ft of the mailbox? I would expect yes and it would definetly sense the car. However you want the receiver 300 yards away. I believe that would be 900 ft which is 100 feet beyond an ideal case line-of-sight no obstruction situation which is the norm for a manufacturers specification. My general experience would suggest that if you get half (400ft) the rating under good conditions, you're lucky.

Bracket is attached to the unit. Sensor wire is about 15ft. Detects about 30 feet. Haven't done much testing.

Hi there, This sensor features a 60 degree viewing radius from dead center. The field of coverage will increase the farther you are from the sensor (Up to 39 ft.) but the sensor is designed monitor small areas 10 to 20 feet from the sensing eye (so as to minimize false alerts). In other words there is very little peripheral vision the sensor offers.

Keep in mind the range for the motion sensor to operate is approx 40'. Also there is a visible red flash, while not very bright, may invite a vandals attention.

Hello Andrea. If your intercom system has a bluetooth transmitter, the "usual" operational range is 15 feet. I've heard of of other posts claiming 30 feet, but that's pushing it. If it's in line of sight, possibly, but pushing it. Hope that helps.

My sending unit is mounted on a pole approximately 400ft from my house. To get to the receiver the signal must pass through 4 walls. It works fine under those conditions.

It's mounted 7'-10' high to be detected maximum distance up to 60'-70' (@75F or less). if just detects 10'-20' away that have to adjust sensitivity knob via clockwise to increase its sensing range.

About 30-35 feet looking in total darkness. But no more the 300 feet from base station recorder to receive

I can not find na correct answer to your question,on max distance for the sensors. I can tell you my experience,that the sensors I have do work at a distance of 50 feet with no problems. I think they may even work at a greater distance, if there was minimal interference. Remember, the temperature does changes at a slow rate. I hope this helps.

My experience has been that the signal begins to weaken at about 100'. Before I purchased this system, I called a tech rep at RCA to ask specific questions, one of which was the signal range. He told me it is designed to have up to 200 meters, which is around 600'! If you're using it at home, it should be plenty, but I use it at work, and am very displeased with the limited signal range.

My husband believes it's 50 or 60 feet. Let me preface that to say that we have to go through our house and garage with a lot of metal between both. That tends to disrupt other wireless products we've used and made them almost useless. This works fine, so I don't really know if this answer helps or not. There is no "line of sight" between the transmitter and receiver for us.

The manufacturer states that the range is 150 feet. Mine is mounted about 100 feet away and works just fine.

In my experience the maximum range is about 35 feet from any sensor. Where I live is basically all cement, i would not really know what would be its maximum range but I would guess is something from 20 to 40 feet. My maximum range is 30 feet and I really tested it while I was installing my equipment.
