Pet immunity is a stated weight limit, and it is measured at floor level · review
A standalone PIR alarm with a remote, from a maker with a decade in detection. CPVAN states a low-battery warning that ticks periodically, and is explicit that the CP2 does not work with its Wi-Fi CP8.
The conclusion Chosen for the low-battery tick and the manufacturer's honesty about compatibility. A local noise, and no more.
Standalone alarms fail in one particular way, and this one addresses it.
A battery-powered alarm with a flat cell is indistinguishable from an armed one. It sits on the wall, it looks correct, and it does nothing. The owner discovers this on the single day it mattered.
CPVAN states a low-battery warning that ticks periodically. That is the difference between a device that tells you it is dying and one that simply stops — and it is worth more than the difference between 120 and 125 decibels.
Site it somewhere the tick will actually be heard. In a garage visited weekly it may go unnoticed for a month.
CPVAN says plainly on its listing that this standalone CP2 does not work with its Wi-Fi CP8. Manufacturers rarely state what their product is incompatible with, and it is worth reading before buying with a plan to expand later. The answer is that you cannot.
A loud local alarm with a remote to arm and disarm it, no hub, no app, no account and no record. For an outbuilding that is often exactly right.
A shed, a garage or a storeroom, and an owner who visits often enough to hear a tick.

Because the alternative is silent failure. A standalone alarm with a dead battery looks exactly like a standalone alarm that is armed, and the owner finds out on the day it should have gone off. A device that announces its own decline is worth more than one with a slightly louder siren.
CPVAN states on its own listing that the standalone CP2 cannot be used with the Wi-Fi CP8 version. They are separate products with separate remotes, and buying one expecting to add the other later does not work. It is unusually direct of a manufacturer to say so.
Standalone for an outbuilding you visit and a noise is enough. Connected where you need to know remotely. This device is firmly the first, and the honest description is a loud, reliable local alarm with nothing behind it.
