BCONE® System Pool Alarm by Lifebuoy® | Certified ASTM F2208 Floating Pool Alarm | Loud Pool Safety Alarms on Home & Pool Units | Connects to Alexa | Pool Alarms for Inground Pools and Above-Ground

We love this! We've had it for 2 years now and it gives me so much peace of mind having 2 little (and adventurous!) kids, plus a dog. The app is easy to use, the customer service is amazing, and the tutorials on set up are easy to follow and it's quick to get used to. Definitely recommend!!

This does exactly what it says. Buy it right now. Finally a pool product that brings pools to the 2023 era of must have products like the iphone/pixel or apple watch, etc. Package, design, app, implementation, customer service all tops.Beacon sits in the pool (attached however you'd like, we have it stuck via included 3M tape to waterline tile in the middle of the pool) and detects wave movement. If the 3 year old goes in the pool it senses it immediately (1+ seconds). The app helps you to determine best placement (not next to skimmer or infloor cleaning jets).Beacon connects wirelessly (bluetooth i think) to a receiver which looks like a modern thermostat. Beacon uses batteries which appear to last for months. Receiver is mounted on indoor wall. Must be within 100 feet of beacon. Ours is about 40 feet on a wall that has a window overlooking pool.Receiver has various functions but it is essentially a giant alarm (same siren as fire/carbon monoxide detector). When beacon senses movement in pool which means someone has walked/fallen in, the receiver sounds the alarm very loudly and also sends notification to your phone via the app. It is near instantaneous (probably 1+ second delay). The notification on your phone happens anywhere you are as long as you have cell service.The receiver has buttons which can control the beacon. Off, on or swim mode (doesn't sound the alarm but when waves stop turns itself back to the on position automatically). We don't use any buttons on the receiver because the app has all the functionality. The receiver plugs in or has a battery that recharges via an included cable.The app is super slick. On/Off/Swim mode. Helps you to set up device. Change sensitivity settings (some places are more windy, some pools with infloor systems have a "busier" surface water. Adjust for size of pool, etc. All modern. Firmware updates have been pushed through. Shows you if receiver has good signal. Can set "quiet times" where alarm will not be active. Shows history. Various other set up options.Customer service is via email and response time is <24 hours. Its possible you have questions, and it appears from my experience they will be answered in an acceptable timeframe and manner.I am impressed. I have a new(ish) pool and the contractor installed iaqualink from zodiac which is an all encompassing wireless pool control system (pumps, heat, infloor, lights, etc) that you control from anywhere. It is terrible. The app is super outdated, not slick, need to be a computer expert to reprogram even simple functions which negates its utility and therefore its mostly useless (and very expensive). Feels like it was designed 20 years ago. This is not what lifebuoy is. Lifebuoy app, beacon, receiver and controls are all what you might expect apple or google to have designed. Wish they made a product to replace iaqualink.

We read the reviews and decided to give this alarm a try. Unfortunately we quickly realized the sensitivity was not consistent. Giant splashes did not even set it off most times at the highest level. I would be wary of purchasing this until they figure out how to make it more consistent. I don't normally leave reviews but this could be life or death for someone.

Worth every penny for safety and peace of mind. Sensitivity can be a little much sometimes but overall great purchase.

Once product is set-up and running, it works pretty well. The set-up will be a bit frustrating, even if you are tech savvy. I have my home functioning with close to 40 items running remotely through wi-fi, so I'm experienced with this kind of device. The software updated 3 times in the install, then the app needed updating. I understand updates are needed but this really seemed off putting as it stopped the set-up each time. Once it was set-up, the product does seem to be very good. We used a 32oz water bottle dropping it into the pool in different locations, caught it every time. They might not say this in the add but you would really have to try very hard to be in there and not set this device off. Time will tell how it holds up against the Phoenix sun, but I'm feeling good about my purchase.

This floating pool alarm works as published and is very easy to install and get working. When using with the wireless application, it will notify you on your phone or other device, if the alarm goes off, and you can set or reset it to various settings, right from your phone. I passed my new pool inspection the very first time after the new pool enclosure was completed--after it was damaged by Hurricaine Milton. New Florida 2023 code requires an alarm in the pool area. The floating pool alarm is much easier to use than trying to place window and sliding-glass-door alarms around the pool area. This pool alarm is ASTM F2208 CERTIFIED! Plus, the CEO of this company really cares about customer satisfaction.
