The existing PIRs are wired, but aren't "animal proof"

None of them are.

It isn't possible.

Honeywell seem to think it is:

They're wrong.


"Is this the 5 minute argument or the full half hour?", to quote a Monty
Python sketch ;-)
Thanks for your opinion, but I'm happy to assume that Honeywell and
other manufacturers know their products and would not make claims that
could be easily demonstrated to be false, if they were.


now that's amusing


Not with a claim thats so trivial to prove as that one.

If their PIRs cant distinguish between pets and humans
of more than crawling baby size, there would be hordes
sayin that on amazon alone, and there arent.

QED, their PIRs will do what they say.
