also be good to have at least a little warning before guests drop in.

Ideally, I'd like more than one sensor - one perhaps _inside_ the box,
so passing sheep, cattle and cats don't set it off, and one
part-way up
the drive (above cat level), as a drop-in-guest-detector.

Wireless, of course, with a plug-in receiver.

Anyone here have useful experience of such things?

Interesting.
Have you used one yourself?


Eeek!
The Amazon _UK_ price is highway robbery!
I wonder what US airport security would think if I packed that in my
bag...

Carry on or checked?
