Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I have owned my Visonic Powermax system for a year and a half, and it has been stellar. In that time we have had one false alarm while we were at work that resulted in a visit from a police cruiser (25 minutes after the 911 call!). When the system notification came we knew that the alarm was set off by a motion detector in the living room, but no doors or windows were violated. I blame the cat, and I had set the sensor for maximum sensitivity. I put it back to normal, and have had no problems since.
Only real complaints have been that the setup can be confusing, and bypassing a zone can be a real PITA. When we go away and have a neighbor check on our dog it is simpler to disable the garage sensors than give them access to the whole house. The only way to do this is via the installer menu, which is very odd.
Despite what the previous reviewer said a wireless keypad is available, it is part number MCM 140. I consider this an essential, because mounting the panel near an entry door is asking for it to be destroyed very quickly should someone break in. The control panel should go in a closet near the center of the house, and you should run external sirens to it (disable the panel siren).
Many other accessories are available for the Powermax, including smoke detectors and breaking glass sensors. All are easily integrated into the system.
I highly recommend this alarm system, despite the odd programiing quirks.
