I thought I would share a real world experience with the Flex I/O at Maverick last night. The device is mounted on a rolling gate.
At 9:58pm I got an alert that the P2 shipping gate was opened… This is outside the normal opening schedule for this gate, which prompted the notifications. Because it was a long holiday weekend, I immediately went to the camera app on my phone (not Alarm.com) to see what was happening. It turned out it was an employee returning a company truck he borrowed over the weekend. Although this event wasn’t a break in, it did validate the Flex I/O as an early warning device for a perimeter intrusion. In conjunction with cameras it provides an effective way to reliably monitor industrial yards.

I installed the Flex I/O in my mailbox which is up a 300′ driveway and out of the line of sight. Wife likes knowing if/when the mail has come. I was not sure if it was legal to put anything in the box. Postal delivery person hasn’t complained about it, yet.
It was easy to install with double-baked tape. It was easy to setup with the guides. Documentation was very good. I was considering mounting it down on the post and wiring a separate contact switch, but I didn’t need to.
Bottomline: We’re loving it!
