When will @eufy ever hear our cry? We want an outdoor siren please not complicated gadgets. Don’t let us down please. We know you have not plans but please consider and remember your loyal customers. Enrol firmware updates on devices so updates so we feel more secured.
Finallyyyyy. I hope it’s will be compatible with older homebase models and affordable for existing users to purchase. Trust me lots of customers switched to other brands due to lack of outdoor siren. It would be awesome if it has built in backup battery, loud 100db siren, panic light and a 3m charger to power it up. Can’t wait…
Looking at the physical size I would not expect much relative to sound. If you are looking for an interim work around you can buy a Yolink wireless siren, then use an Alexa routine to have it alert as needed.
Not sure if you can really tell the size by the photo. In the R&D stage anything can change. Also, a loud siren could come from a small device. Size isnt everything.
This is a picture of the partial siren which comes from the FCC filings. The antenna is 28 millimeters (1.1 inches). Extrapolating from the antenna dimensions, the outside dimensions are roughly 3 to 3.5 inches square. Size is important for speakers and piezo devices. The black circular component in the middle of the unit is a piezoelectric ceramic speaker. Likely (hopefully) capable of 85-90 decibels. For reference, a hairdryer up close is 90db while a typical alarm bull siren runs 120db. Time will tell but this is just my humble opinion based on the dimensions and a background selling components like these.
Yolink works with Google Home. I wasn’t a fan of the app or the ease of setting up the system. Individual pieces work well, like this siren. The siren although a bull siren type isn’t terribly loud but it is annoying in the house. You could mount it outside as well where it should do a better job getting someone’s attention. Likely better to put one inside and one inside. Both could be triggered by Alexa or Google.
