Monitoring cost is reasonable. What is the actual cost of monitoring per device and what are the best companies to approach for this service?

It's on their website. http://www.findmespot.com/en/index.php?cid=129. $100 bucks for 5 minute tracking. $200 for 2.5 minute. Per/Year.

I, don't but must also say I am no longer using the Owl. The one I had was only good for monitoring current usage. Their SW is very bad and actually useless. I am now using a efergy meter that has some history easily accessible on the monitor itself. It does not have the PC interface. If you want something useful although not with a readout look at Flusko.

You have to purchase an iFit module. I think they are like $100. If you have a subscription, you should be able to use it for unlimited pieces of equipment.

Don't use it for monitoring. I wouldn't use it for that. Baby monitor would be better

Probably Ultimate Ears Personal Reference Monitors are better but they are twice the price .. :)

I don't know what you mean by monitoring. If you are asking if the individual phones will show caller ID in their respective rooms, then the answer is yes. I have the main phone plugged into the phone line and the other three are spread out throughout the house.

I have no idea why this information would be needed. I am a user of the device, not a technical expert. Mine works fine for its intended purpose. That is all I can comment on.

You will have to subscribe to a total connect service to allow for self monitoring. There are several companies out there that will do it and the costs depends on what features you want. If you want weather, camera integration, etc.., it will cost more. If you just want basic remote control and email/text notifications you can find it for less than $10 a month.

I used http://alarmsim.com/ seems to work ok. I'm not thrilled with the cell performance of the fortress unit but it does seem to get the job done.

If you can add a sensor you can add this to your system. If you dont have the password to do so your monitoring company should have it. This has a plug in wall transformer with back up batteries to power it. It will not run long on the batteries so it needs to go someplace you can plug it in. I mounted above an outlet, poked hole in drywall and ran the cord in the drywall and back out behind the plate over the outlet.

We currently have about 10-15 people monitoring them. I have not see an issue in regards to performance with simultaneous users

I use "IP Camera Super Client" software for recording to a hard drive. Monitoring is done either via built-in browser-based software or software I'd mentioned.

Without central station monitoring you will not be protected when away and will not save on your homeowners insurance policy (around 20%).The kit we sell is priced at a loss because we provide central station monitoring. Our monthly fee is $35/ mo for basic security and an extra $10/ mo to include the interactive gold package (control lights, locks & thermostats remotely). If you purchase the kit from someone else you can use it locally.

Karin, I've used this a couple times and it depends what APP you use with it. The best APP I've seen is Tourque Lite. It has a lot of real-time features. Tourque Pro costs about $5, but gives you more features. Good luck!

Also, read the other answers: this device DOES NOT offer continuous heart rate monitoring. I think the description is a little misleading about that. For me a deal breaker.

I am the owner of a security systems company in Atlanta. I have installed this system in many local homes and businesses. Its an excellent system and easy to install. You can hire a local security company to do it. Typically I charge a customer around $250 or $300 to do an installation. This includes all the wiring, setting up the DVR and mobile access to view the cameras from your cell phone. In some states a permit is required by the city or county for "low voltage" installation in a business but I would just reccommend you use proper judgement in gauging the competence of the company you are dealing with.
