What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · October 1, 2026
This kit alerts you when someone steps on a floor pressure mat, using sound, bright flashing light, and strong vibration so you don't have to hear a door or footsteps. A telephone transmitter sends a wireless signal to an alarm clock receiver, and a bed shaker adds vibration for sleeping. Color-coded indicators on the receiver show which device triggered the alert. The parts come preconfigured to work together and need no Wi-Fi. The transmitter also has input ports for adding things like a magnetic switch, using 3.5 mm or 2.5 mm trigger cables, if you want to watch a door or window too. It suits someone who is deaf or hard of hearing and wants to know when a doorway, hallway, or bedside area is entered.
