First thing I thought.

Apparently they have never seen "child proof" medicine bottles. Either they have way under-described the physical security of this device, or any kid with an Allen wrench will be able to get into it and bypass it within about 3 minutes.

And promptly get his ass beat for not listening. I agree with you Mospaw, it is easy to bypass it.

Same here, I didn't even read the article fully, I just thought, well, that's dumb, all the kid needs is an allen wrench and some wire clippers, and boom, the thing comes off, you splice the cables together, and you've got it.

They practically explain it on their website: »www.smarthome.com/9620.html

Kids are more resourceful than you think...
