It looks like everywhere is £20 or so, so not the massive saving that you were thinking but for under £7 it's great value.

Went to Maplins in Coventry yesterday and they had two on the shelf. I bought one and tried it, yes its a cheap build but eh it works and its a very good price for what u get.

I previously got a wireless doorbell from Asda, that was fun, it used to go off whenever I locked/unlocked by car with my remote control keyfob.

Big thanks to the OP

sorry to put a damper on it but I have just sent the 2 I purchased back. The range is nothing like the up to 50 metres it would not even do 30 metres outside across the garden with nothing between the unit and the push button. Probably o/k if you are only needing it for a short distance.

I am really disapointed so if anyone knows of a better one I would be interested. I am going to try the more expensive 100m one but I am not hopeful given the performance of this one.

lowbrim, how about if u got kids or something, they are upstairs but never listen when u call them from downstairs, use that to attract their attention - its works well on short distances. :rotfl:

I'm a bit of a technophobe and can't see how this can be done . An idiot's guide? TIA!

hmm. if you open the casing for the push button there is a little black button whihc you press to select the desired tone. (the bell will sound each time it is pressed and which ever one sound thats the selected tone)
