    Anyone here aware of decent driveway laser beam motion detection and garden motion detection?

    I need something that can work with phones or call me

    Just stumbled across your post, did you have any joy in the end, Stranger12? I'm looking at the Guardline Wireless Driveway alarm on aamzon at present

    I find the Ring door bell works just fine in this regard. You can set activation zones by drawing them on screen, and you can adjust sensitivity to rule out smaller bodies like cats and foxes. I dont get any false alarms from cats and birds. Works as a door bell too.
    If you dont want a door bell they sell a version which is just a camera, two way audio and a remote operated alarm so you can set off the alarm from your phone when you see something you dont like onscreen.

    Thanks Typhoon, am actually planning to fit a Ring Video Pro this weekend so will see how that is first
