Hi all,
I am about to pull the trigger on one of the smokescreens http://www.smoke-screen.com
I thought of installing it inside the office and outside above the change machine. I understand outside is not the best spot due to wind, etc. but I thought better than nothing. It might help saving my change machine.
Has anyone experience with that? Cheers Justclean

Do you already have audio alarm, auto dialer, and cameras? I would definitely put your money there first for the changer spot.

I see they seem to have 5 different versions & it appears they require a quote. If you don't mind me asking ... what kind of dollars are we considering?

I have doubts that it would do anything useful outside if the smoke is really harmless. Pepper spray bomb, on the other hand...

I am getting an older version for a very good price. Usually they are $1300, I think. I am getting the last two for $400 each.

You are absolutely right! Not useful outside. On the other hand for the price I am paying I'll give it a try and if it fails I'll put it inside my plantroom. Pepperspray is good if the crooks don't know about the system. However, if they come with a gas mask it's is useless. Mind you most of them are idiots and wouldn't have a clue anyway.
