Enough already !! .... Theifing Bandit No More

Nice shot! What is the range on that alarm? Is it wireless? I might have to get me one.

I wish I had bought a couple of thousand of these with my company name on them and resold them I started using the "Ding Donger" as I called it (because it sounds like "ding dong when it alerts you") in '07-08 for coons and possums in night time operations   The Ding Donger caught on quickly after that, and I think Harbor Freight has sold at least a thousand units to GTA members since.

Yes it is wireless and is called the Driveway Alert System.  The range is pretty good.  Advertised up to 400ft.  I have tested it to 50yds/150ft and it works great.  It alerts the receiver unit in your home which takes C batteries, whenever something crosses its path.  The transmitter (outside) takes 1 9V battery.  A regular Duracell 9V can last about 5-6 months with little to average activity.  If you have a lot of activity (like birds, etc.) that set it off frequently, it will then last about 3-4 months tops.  I tested this by placing one near the bird feeder and it was going off several hundred times/day.  That Ding Donger lasted just over 3 months.  I have left them out in the rain, snow & ice year after year, and they still work pretty well except for 1 (out of 3) which goes through a battery every 2 months or much less than the others, so I am not using that one any longer.  The receiver is very loud and will wake you from deep sleep at night, so you can shoot the bandit or Country Rat that is raiding your yard.  It also has a more quiet setting but that's still loud, unless you throw something on it to cover it up, which is what I do.  My wife has pretty much banned them now at night, so be careful if you live with someone.  It will wake them up! 
The Ding Donger is great for when you have a fight and sleep on the couch

Thanks! http://www.harborfreight.com/wireless-driveway-alert-system-93068.html Looks like a great piece of equipment, but I don't think it would reach to my bait from my house, probably 80-100 yards.

Line of sight minimal obstruction ... likely it will work as it should.

It's across the road, down over an embankment, and through a patch of trees. It's only, what, $18? haha I might get it just to try it. If it won't work, oh well, I'll use it for something. I don't think it would be as useful to me as it would be to someone that is shooting out of their house, now that I think of it. By the time I get up, dress my feet, grab the Mrod, and get over there, whatever it was would probably be gone. I'll probably just use my trail cams to try and get a pattern set up as to when the rabbit thief comes out and then just sit in my hide around that time.
