Recently this subject came up in an online think tank when a member asked the following questions; "Other applications, if provided enough of a connectivity, what else could be installed into the equipment? Low power Sonar? Light weight radar? How about Reflective Ultrasound? Give the equipment eyes."

The K&N representative, however, gave a compelling argument. If you are not familiar with what a K&N filter looks like, let me explain. It is cone shaped part, basically constructed of a paper filter with wire mesh around it. It attaches to a hose that brings air into the engine; blocking dirt, bugs, and any other hazardous objects that happen to make their way under your hood. The paper, which is the filter, is coated in oil.

If you are considering installing a wireless infrared home security system be sure to consider that while there are many options out there - each has distinct advantages and disadvantages! After owning and operating a business for several years - and having taken advantage of both PIR and photo beam systems to secure my property, there is one thing I have come to loathe above all - false alarms! There's nothing like the stress of a midnight phone call, a panicked rush to contact the proper authorities - only to find that the culprit is the neighbourhood cat!

The distinct advantage of photo beam security over PIR security is evident in the way photo beams work. Two units create an 'upper' and 'lower' beam between each other. Photo beams are a thin beam, unlike many PIR alarms which have a vertical and horizontal spread beam with a limited detection distance. Both photo beams must be broken prior to alarm signal being sent so photo beam sensors eliminate false alarms caused by falling leaves, branches, animals and movement of vegetation due to weather - problems consistently noted with PIR systems - by myself personally and admitted unabashedly by providers and retailers.

These type of sensors are not a new technology by any means! They are currently one of the best established security solutions in the market place. Photo beams provide an invisible 'fence', which when broken by an intruder creates an alarm condition. This makes them particularly suitable for perimeter protection.

Unique technology innovations made by leading designers provide a wide range of functions that greatly simplify installation while maintaining reliable performance, even in adverse weather or poor environmental conditions.
