I'm talkin $5 biglots cheap (they didn't have them anymore.lol)

Befroe i get flammed, this is NOT i repeat NOT going in/on a vehicle of any kind, it is not meant to protect anything at all. It is being used in a case mod. Just wanted that out there, cus i know if i seen someone that wanted a $5 alarm to protect their stereo, well, i um, uh, i wouldn't know what to say. [Confused]

Thanks.

Oh, and i care nothing about the features, as long as it say "chirp" for me i'm good. [Big Grin]

I somehow knew all this bashing would come. [Razz]

Just answering the original posters question about the cheapest, non quality with just 'chirp' that I know of, besides ebay.

Thanks RFVega. buddy of mine had one of the talking ones on his truck. Funny thing was, it actually worked alright. I set the sensitivity and cracked her open and moved the siren and hid the rest.

Worked damn good for him. Went out and bought the same model for myself till i could get up the money for a real alarm, and you had to practicly run and jump on my truck to get it to go off. Yet sometimes it would just go off for no reason at all [Confused]

Thanks for the reply

That isn't the cheapest way (Vet bills, food, etc...) Let alone the stink. Plus, the dog might die if in hot summer day.

To be honest though, all it takes is a silencer & your barking attack alarm is silent.
