Having only seen an advert for a couple of such things which both said that they were motion sensitve I wonder what the likelyhood is that they can be set off by the next person who locks their bike next to mine in the rack. Obviously I won't always be within earshot so I just imagine the thing blaring away until I return or the battery runs out. It seems likely they have a timer but even so it will be bloody irritating to anyone who is near it.
So what are the pros and cons of lock alarms?
I am going to run an experiment using an ordinary motion alarm of the sort used to stick to a door or a window to detect a blow. They have an on/off switch and variable sensitivity and I was thinking of just plastic tieing one undr the saddle or hidden by the rack.
I will report back my findings but I am hoping that no scroats try to "help" with my trials by nicking my bike.
