Well - this would have saved some hardwood in my office...

Brilliant! This is going in under my stand for sure!

I think that I'd probably find another "slightly less loud, scary and annoying" alarm though... Just watching the video on my iPhone with the volume almost off and my thumb over the speaker STILL had my dogs crying.

I got pretty upset with how many times he "tested" touching the wires together... muted every time haha

It only goes off if you are about to flood your tank and ruin your floor..... wouldn't you want the loudest alarm possible?

Seeing as how this would generally only be used by people like myself that tend to wander off when filling a tank and forget.... I will hear this no matter where i am in the house. lol
