Dakota Alert Driveway Alarm ● Any Good? ✅ One Mile Range? ● Through Trees? ● DCPT-2500 and 4000

I've been using the older 2500 series Dakota Alert systems for many years now with great success. The newer 4000 systems build on this prior success and offer even more capability. The range on these units is good, the battery life is good, and the system has been reliable. In this video, I show you how I have it deployed at my location and configured, despite a load of trees right in the way of the transmitter.
