IonKids Child Locator Device Review

The age of your child should determine the type of child locator device is best for you along with the types of places you frequent with the family.

Let’s go through one circumstance: you turn away for 5 seconds and then turn back, your 4 year old child is gone. Using the Ion Kids locator and alert device can locate your child by a watch they wear for up to 350 feet away.

Even better yet you can set a safety zone, if your child goes outside the preset distance of the safety zone the alarm goes off. Usually you can immediately look up and scan the area for their recovery. If they are not in sight for some reason, just pull out your Ionkids locator unit, hit the “find” button for the exact location of your child.

The Brickhouse child locator device as advertised in the Duracell commercial works in much the same way with a range of up to 600 feet. The additional distance may be needed if you are outside in the park or have multiple children to watch. Both are quality units and if you think about it, 350 and 600 feet are long distances.

I recommend either unit for children under 12 and both are priced at about $ 170 to $ 180. The Ion Kids child alert watch unit is a tamper proof watch like bracelet that is very durable. An alarm sounds if the bracelet if removed after it has been activated. It also has a return to base paging feature that alerts all bracelets to return to you with an audible sound.

This means you can watch up to 4 children with watch bracelets from one base monitor at once. The base unit you carry is about the size of a small TV remote and goes easily in a purse or shirt pocket.

When you think of a child safety device, using a wristband or watch system is the easiest way. Visit the Brickhouse Security information site for the IonKids Child Locator Device plus other personal security options for your loved ones.
