Thanks all.

Seems a lot of money for what is effectively a PIR sensor, if you really think you need something like this have a look on Amazon or eBay lots of cheap products from £15 .

Tbh if someone is really determined & wants to take your stuff and it's likely they are carrying a weapon I'd let the take it, tackle can be replaced.

Ive used PIRs for decades and I've had the odd person approach and on hearing the alarm turn around and walk away.

This is what me thinking was , I guess it won't deter any if they are solely out for your gear but might put off the chancer, which PIRs should I be looking for 🤔

A couple of places I fish have had some undesirables lurking around at night so I now use a Westlake Pro Bivvy alarm system.
I picked one up for £50, 3 x PIRs and a remote receiver for the bivvy, I've only ever used 1 x PIR do have 2 spares 😂😂😂👍👍
Seems to work ok, it's more about me being woken up if someone is approaching when I'm asleep, better prepared than being unexpectedly surprised.

I've used stand alone and transmitters and receivers from £12 to £50. I now own a ‘smart alarm' that works with my new digital Delkims they also make Bivvy lights superb bits of kit for £80 a piece. They make alarms that work with Delks Fox and Nash, I've owned my previous set for a few years upgraded to the new delks and purchased the newer alarm and Bivvy light well pleased with them. May have to reduce the sensitivity as mine was picking up cars passing 15 meters away.

The movement detector is programmed in to one of the channels of your receiver (RXi-D) and has a unique sound to the Delk Alarms (it pips 3 low 3 high 3 low 3 high). It also triggers the Receivers anti theft if turned off.

The Bivvy light can be programmed with up to 8 channels??? (Certainly 6) 4 bite alarms and 2 movement detectors.

The range on both are great, only bettered being digitalised.

I took a bit of a financial hit upgrading from the analogue set up to digital, pleased I did though, not that there was any problems with my analogue set up, besides the chap that purchased the set was over the moon.

Not really that well known in the UK, I've had mine for 4 plus years and think they are superb. I use Duracell rechargeable AA batteries.

Thanks 👍

To be on safe side why don't you fence off swim with a battery powered electric fence just in case the search lights fail to deter any nocturnal invasion, mind u maybe a movement activated turret gun should be deployed in the bivvy doorway as a last line of defence lol.

I use one due to my tackle insurance, I was fishing in Epping and one April and it snowed and didn't bother to set my movement detectors up and low and behold I stired around midnight and my rods had been nicked so as much as I appreciate the madness and fish waters that are behind locked doors nowadays I'd rather not take the chance. Especially when I've invested 35 years into building my kit up.

I knew a guy whom carried a machete now that's a joke.
