“Unlike other reviewers, I have no problem with the loudness. It's 110 decibels which is on the limit of how much your ears can take. Which is loud enough in my opinion because who wants to get ear damage from a mistakenly set off alarm when you go to deactivate it..!!!?? I don't... No the problem I have is that torrential rain sets the alarm off. Granted, it was raining very heavily, but the lock was covered and there was zero wind. So I have no idea why it would set it off...it happened more than once on separate occasions of torrential rain (so it was not a one off) and I have no doubt this will happen all the time. (UPDATE-PLEASE READ UPDATE BELOW) So now I have a dilemma of how to avoid this since it will wake a lot of people up if it rains like that during the night. What gets me is I can quite roughly move the bike before the alarm even hints at going off yet rain, which is not even hitting the lock directly, can set it off. A design flaw somewhere there. Pity...otherwise feels quite solid.
edit: after having been tested further, I have found no other false alarms, even with very heavy/torrential rain so I decided to update my review. I am beginning to think that maybe the fact it went off when it rained heavily was due to the positioning of the bike cover hitting the disk lock. So I have added another star.
UPDATE-PLEASE READ: After testing this lock out extensively, I can confirm that the false alarm was caused by a badly placed bike-cover NOT because the alarm is too sensitive. Further torrential rain did NOT cause false alarms. So I give this product 5 star and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it. It's been perfect and good value for money, nicely built too. Upgraded it to a well deserved 5 stars.

“I bought this nifty little gadget to protect my shiny new 250cc sportbike.
The size is very handy and clips on to my front brake disc no problem .
Only this morning I had forgotten it was on and just as I mounted the bike to turn on the ignition , the movement set off the alarm and prevented my from driving off with it on .......................
I advise to use the reminder cable with it at all times just for added security ... I would strongly advise against using it without the reminder cable as its small size my let one forget its in place .
Good quality workmanship and design .
