TECKNET TK-WD010 review
A two-part driveway alarm: a PIR sensor outside and a receiver indoors with 32 selectable tones. TECKNET states an 8 meter (26.2 ft) by 110 degree detection field.
The conclusion Awareness rather than alarm, and genuinely useful for it. Mount it beside the path, not facing down it.
This device answers one simple question: has somebody
come onto the property, right now, while I am in.
Split, and that is the point
A PIR sensor outside, a receiver plugged in indoors. You hear the chime; the
person on the drive hears nothing. That distinction matters — a visitor
announced quietly gives you time to look before they knock, and it works
equally for a delivery driver and for somebody who should not be there.
The detection figure, read correctly
8 meters (26 ft) by 110 degrees horizontally and 10 meters (33 ft) by 30 degrees vertically:
that is what TECKNET calls a direction-dependent range. On top of it comes the way PIR sensors work: they detect warmth crossing their zones, so
somebody walking across the field triggers at the full distance while somebody
walking straight at it may not trigger until much closer.
Mount it beside the path looking across, never at the end looking down.
Tones
Thirty-two, from a quiet beep to a siren, with five volume levels from 0 to 110 dB. The listing does not say whether the receiver accepts a second sensor; what matters is that a quiet option makes it something you can live with rather than switch off. In silent mode the LED flashes continuously, which helps hearing-impaired users, and settings survive a power cut.
Mounting and power
TECKNET states the sensor is not waterproof: fit it out of direct rain. It runs on two AAA batteries or on the supplied USB-C cable; neither unit has a built-in battery. It mounts with double-sided tape or two screws, on a stand that rotates through 360°. TECKNET also states a radio link of up to 250 m (820 ft) in open ground, and 36 months of support for registered users.
The limitation
Nobody home, nobody hears it. There are no notifications. This is awareness
while you are in, and it should sit alongside a system rather than instead of
one.
Who it suits
A driveway, a yard, a shop, or anybody who wants notice before the knock.

The questions we are asked
What does "direction dependent" mean?
That TECKNET publishes two fields: 8 meters (26 ft) by 110° horizontally and 10 meters (33 ft) by 30° vertically. Separately from those figures, PIR sensors work by detecting warmth moving between their zones, and a person approaching head-on crosses far fewer of them. Mount it beside the path rather than at the end of it.
Why so many tones?
The listing does not say whether the receiver accepts several sensors. The 32 tones, from a quiet beep to a siren, and the five volume levels from 0 to 110 dB mainly let you find a sound you can live with in the room where the receiver is plugged in.
Does it work when the house is empty?
No. It rings a receiver in the house, and if nobody is there the sound happens to an empty room. This is awareness rather than security — the value is knowing somebody is on the drive while you are in the kitchen.
Our score
7.5/ 10
Awareness rather than alarm, and genuinely useful for it. Mount it beside the path, not facing down it.

Knowing somebody has entered a driveway or a yard before they reach the door.
Specifications: the manufacturer sheet for home security products and the matching Amazon product page. Prices and availability: Keepa. Every figure on this page names its source.
4–5 m (13 to 16 ft) × 110° PIR · 110 dB · 58 melodies, 5 volumes · 20 sensors per receiver
A driveway alarm expandable to twenty sensors on one receiver, with 58 melodies and five volume levels. BITIWEND states a 4 to 5 meter (13.1 to 16.4 ft) detection range across 110 degrees.
Best for: A property with several entrances that should each announce themselves differently.
Standalone PIR · 125 dB · remote control · low-battery warning · not compatible with the CP8
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.
Best for: A shed, garage or storeroom where the alarm should warn you before its battery dies.
Two sensors and one alarm unit · 300 ft radio to the receiver, detection about 20 ft — both published, and labeled · 38 ringtones with 3 volumes AND A SILENT LED-ONLY MODE, the only silent option on this shelf · 2 sets of mounting screws · AAA not included · not waterproof
The only detector here with a silent mode — a light and no sound — and one of the few that separates its radio range from its detection range on the same page.
Best for: A household with a sleeping baby or a shift worker, where the alert must be visible and not audible
