Summary: Works great at first...
Comment: Product was as advertised. Easy to install and operate. Out of no where two months in though the brain unit stopped functioning. So if you need a temporary security system then this one is the one for you.

Summary: Excellent Value
Comment: I was looking for a good DIY home security system without monitoring service and after research I found the SC-1000 to be the best value for the money.
Positives
-Setup was breeze, it was easier to follow Skylink installation video on Youtube than read the manual. The whole setup took about 30 minutes ( including mounting the door sensors).
- Farthest Door sensor was about 75 ft away from the central console but had no range issues.
- Alarm was LOUD! and the dialer was able to dial out through my VoIP line to my Mobile
Negatives
- Mouting stickers that come with the unit are useless and mine peeled off within a day ( and triggered the alarm). I replaced them with ones from a local hardware store.
- By default all sensors are programmed to dial out through the dialer, remove them and just leave the control panel. Thanks to all the other feedbacks I did this as part of my installation

Not sure how long the batteries are going to last on the sensors!
Overall excellent system and am very happy I bought this. I am planning on adding an additional motion sensor and a door/window sensor.

Summary: Wireless
Comment: I was disappointed since apparently you need a land line in order to hook up the auto dialer, but other then that it was worth the money.

Summary: SC-1000 combined with SC-10
Comment: After reading the reviews of this product, I decided to purchase this with the SC-10. As one reviewer had described you get an extra key transmitter, window/door sensor, external alarm, and at a cost savings. So for just over $200 I combined both products. I also added some additional items, i.e. the water sensors, extra motion detectors. Installation was fairly straightforward. I did have to call support because the antenna on the external alarm unit needed a small trimming to fit inside the unit. Customer service was excellent, they called me back timely, twice. The unit has worked extremely well, and has been tested a couple times.
I really like the dialer features, up to 9 calls, and no monitoring fees. I did as other suggested and hid my dialer, placed it in silent operation so you can't hear the dialer/message being delivered. I put the external alarm from the SC-10 on the outside, so I have alarm inside/out, at the same time. I added additional items, easy enough to do.
I would recommend this to anyone looking for a simple to install system, with ability to avoid monitoring fees.
My only complaints. The key transmitters look somewhat cheap, bulky, plastic, and not very well labeled. As someone suggested, I used perm markers to color code the keys. The door/window sensors also have a bulky component that gets mounted right up alongside or on your door. I placed mine at the very tops of the door so they are somewhat out of site. They are larger than most sensors you find in wireless systems.
For the money spent you can't beat this system, and with the capability of easily adding on to the system, it makes for an excellent home alarm system. If you're in the market for a security system for yourself, click the order button now.

Summary: Decent Product, Customer Service lacking
Comment: I had my SC-100 for about 6 months when the speaker stopped working, the solder joint on the back of the speaker came off. It's made in China, so I wasn't too surprised, but getting it fixed was a hassle. Customer support offers very little assistance even though it was still under warranty. At this point it's easier for me to buy a new speaker and fix it then to send it in a be without a system for who knows how long. Just something to be aware of if you do have a problem.
