Poor Design
Functions (Arm, Disarm, Part arm) could all be better identified. Don't it use now as too fiddly in low light.

Poor key fob identification
The key fob works 100%. My only issue is that I am unable to see the 3 positions it has, these would have been better highlighted in white, consequently we dont use it now.

Don’t waste your money
Didn’t even last a week and fell apart. Tried to put it back together but never worked again
Richard K - 3 / 5 - 06/01/2025
The lock switch is small and difficult to see
It works ok but it’s the wrong shape and too small

Terrible bit of kit
it doesn't really work and you can't see the symbols

Not good product design
This fob shipped with my alarm kit. You can hardly see the tiny symbols engraved on the fob. All same colour. Not possible to differentiate between buttons using your touch sense either. We kept pressing the wrong buttons. Useless key fob. We ended up relying on the mobile app instead.

Let down by poor design
Technically this woks fine but the design is appalling. It's all black with only an imprint on the rubber buttons to show what each does. So in low light it is near impossible to ensure you press the correct button. Neither is it tactile so you cannot feel/be sure which button you are pressing. That is further exacerbated by the fact that the key ring clip is at an angle. At least if it was vertical you'd have a better chance of working out which button was which. It's predecessor (on our old system) was much clearer. The same goes for the keypad which may look stylish but which has grey lettering for each function which again makes seeing it difficult - until you are used to pressing the right button.

Useful Device
Easy to add device to the app for your alarm system and also easy to use to activate and deactivate alarm.
DickS - 1 / 5 - 16/08/2024
Far inferior product
The buttons are so small and would not be visible in a dim light. It is far inferior to the other key fobs used in other alarm models.
Nick J - 2 / 5 - 07/07/2024
Difficult to use
Difficult to use as legends for Arm, Part Arm and Unlock are just pressed into the black plastic case so are not easy to see even in the day time. The keyring is set at the wrong angle. If you hold your keys in your hand and look at the fob the indicator light is at 5 o'clock and the buttons go from 7 o'clock to 1 o'clock with the legends upside down. All in all a bad design
