Title: google search help
Post by: snapper on 08 June 2013, 06:55:58 pm
Help my boy has taken to coming down stairs in the middle of the night 4AM ish   
 he is not realy awake but also not sleep , Its not realy a problem when he walks around up stairs but we dont want him going down stairs
 
I am trying to find a pir senor with a remote sounder box !1 but two things
One, it must have a volume control  , Two, it must be battery powered for the senor at least
 
 we have tried a few other things such as pressure pads  but it works for s short while but even in his half awake state he gets around them
I have searched google , maplins and a few other places but with nothing realy suitable .
 
any help would be great ! thank you

What about a child gate on the top of the stairs. The travel ones can be fitted in seconds without any fittings in the walls or Bannister

Ball and Chain?
More serious side, whys he going downstairs.  Might be better to put whatever he is after upstairs so he doesn't have to.

Why not use a web cam in "Motion sensor mode"?   With an online SMS service it will send you a text...also good for when you go on holiday.


Or use an Android app like this  (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=dk.mvainformatics.android.motiondetectorpro.activity&hl=en)one to send a text to another phone
