DEWALT MOBILELOCK DS600 Portable Alarm System and GPS Locator: Perfect for Trailers, Job Sites, RV and Other Remote or Mobile Assets

1 month after purchasing the mobil lock alarm my trailer was broke into at 1:36 am. several texts were sent to my phone. Unfortunately my phone was on silent mode and didn't wake me up. (kicking myself) The perps drove off with my trailer. Once I was made aware of the theft, I activated the GPS locater and found the trailer exactly where the GPS said it was. Regrettably 3 pieces of expensive equipment were stollen. I blame myself. The alarm it's self is not very loud so I've ordered the battery powered switch and siren amplifier. Hopefully there isn't a next time but if there is, the system should wake the neighborhood. Damn thieves! Important to NOT put your phone on silent...Duh

Works well, EASY to install, does all its supposed to, sends a text and calls you when alarm goes off, almost instantaneous, depending on device signal, alarm is not loud, but it does alert your phone, haven’t needed to charge yet, so battery life is decent, $20 a month subscription is required, ANNNNND, you have to pay EACH time you locate your device, that’s right, every single time you refresh its location, it’s a charge, small, but a charge, when you first set up your account you will have a few freebies, but after those are done, you must pay to locate your device, so what’s the $20 a month for? That really upset me, and I’ll be contemplating returning it for $220 back.

I recently purchased a new motorhome, which is stored at a secure lot across town. In case it gets broken into, I wanted an alarm, preferably with a motion sensor, that sends text/e-mail alerts. In case it gets stolen, I wanted a GPS tracker that also sends alerts. I also needed something that would run off of 12 volts.The DS6000 fills the bill perfectly, and appears to be the only decent option for my requirements available right now. There are a multitude of less-expensive GPS trackers, with a less expensive monthly fee, but none can be tied into a motion sensor, or have the vibration/tamper/tilt/temperature alarms, and none can be tied into a motion sensor. There are also home security systems that I could adapt, but none have a GPS tracker.I purchased just the DS600 a couple of weeks ago, and hid it in the RV. I've tested the tamper, vibration, tilt and temperature alarms, and so far all work perfectly, sending text and voice alerts.Battery life has been great - after two weeks, it barely needed charging.Magnet is quite strong.My plan is to install the wireless PIR motion sensor, and the 12-volt charger this weekend.Being able to suspend the $20/month cell alert service, for $2.50/month, is a huge plus.The $20 / month is definitely worth it for the peace of mind knowing that if anything happens to my RV, I'll promptly be alerted.Updates to follow.

So far the mobile lock is working as advertised. I'm using it as a temporary security system for my flip houses and i'm pretty confident that it will work for what I want it to. I attached the unit to the most expensive tool I have in the house and have it paired to the motion sensor to let me know if anyone breaks in. Only draw back is the user interface on phones, wish they had a Android app instead of just the web page.

I bought the Mobilelock system for my tractor that sits outside some nights. The hood is made of steel, so I used the magnets to attach the main unit under the hood and then wrapped the cable sensor unit through the steering wheel and around the pedals. Set up was pretty easy once I watched the online videos. I have it set up so I use my phone to text to the unit to arm and disarm it. When I am using the tractor, I take the cable off and wrap it around the roll bar for storage.So far I have tested cable alarms, and starting the tractor creates a vibration alarm. It is to early to tell about battery life but so far after a week I have a very good level. I have tried the GPS location and it worked great and showed the location within about 10 feet on a map.My original plan was to only use it when the tractor sits outside but now that I see how well it works, I may buy the DS525 equipment power adapter so it can be permanently installed and charged from the tractor battery.

I've been letting this thing sit next to me in Austin and it's been reporting for months that it's still in salt lake city. This is the second unit I received from Dewalt after the first seemed to fail. On the road. Just canceled the service. Literally sticking an ipad somewhere in the trailer on LTE would give me more accurate results and cost half as much to keep activated on my verizon account. The User Experience is early-2000's - there's no app as we're accustomed to. it costs money to locate the device, which is weird. What's my service fee for, then? Very strange. The features are logical however the interface is terrible and slow to navigate on smartphone. I got an alarm in San Diego and couldn't get it to track live, had to take an Uber to the trailer to see if it was still there, freaking out. It was, and just wasn't reporting to the account after the alarm. It's 2019, folks, this device's experience is nowhere near what is should be. Transparent, easy, and beautiful.

I ordered this gps alarm tracker, more for the "tracker" than alarm. The alarm part is not so loud, but it is audible to whoever is trying to steal your trailer. The unit is well built, durable and easy to setup. I just wish it had an APP to use instead of having to use a computer. harder to track in real time and follow using a computer vs APP on smartphone, etc. Outside of that, the battery run time is as stated. you get 5 days before you have to recharge, or if you can leave it plugged into a battery backup, even more so. The TRIGGERS, such as motion, tilt, etc. were very well. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. You DO HAVE TO HAVE a service plan for the cellular unit. 19/mo not bad.

I was looking for a device to track and secure equipment on site. MobileLock was what I decided on. So far the interface has been easy to use. We will be deploying some equipment with MobileLock in the near future, and will update after we have a chance to use it in the field.
