I need a driveway sensor that detects cars (not worried about people or animals). Preferably it would have a commonplace Form C relay that I can use with an ELK panel and do some conditional programming. I know they exist but don't know where to look. Any clues?

We have used a sensor from Winland, unfortunately they have discontinued this product. If you give Winland a call they can inform you of the company that has a comparable solution (they told me the other day, I just don't remember).

Dakota Alert - wireless, great product, you'll be amazed at the range [Link: dakotaalert.com]The Dakota DC powered receiver has dry relays you can wire to whatever. You can have multiple receivers on one project. You can have 4 senders to one receiver, based on setting dip switches. And you can turn off the volume tone on the receiver if all you want is the integration part. CarTell - the wired standard - http://cartell.com/

I use one from Sure Action. They offer a directional probe which is a bunch easier than putting in 2 Cartell systems to do the same thing. [Link: sureaction.com]FYI, make sure you surge suppress this stuff, gets hit all the time...

Ive used the Meir ( [Link: absoluteautomation.com]) on a large Crestron job on Nantucket, and it works beautifully. Run some UG Cat wire and get some UG splicing products and you're good to go. Works wonderfully.
