Okay, so I got this HoneTeek alarm for my back door, and let me just say—WOW, it’s LOUD. Like, 'neighbors-texting-me-to-ask-if-I’m-okay' loud. The 108dB siren is no joke. If you want to scare off intruders (or your cat), this will do the job.

The remote control is a nice touch—super convenient for arming/disarming without fumbling at the door. I tested the range (~82ft), and it worked fine from my driveway. Also, the adhesive held up surprisingly well (unlike some reviews said), but I cleaned the surface properly first.

BUT… if you’re using this around kids or elderly folks? Think twice. My grandma visited and accidentally triggered it—she nearly jumped out of her skin. The alarm doesn’t stop until you manually shut it off or close the door, which could be stressful in non-intruder scenarios.

For $20? Solid security upgrade. Just know what you’re signing up for: a literal ear-piercing wake-up call.
