Tips for the Guardener A201 2.0
As this device is solar powered, it does need sunlight to function, however many gardeners prefer their cat deterrents to be out of sight or inconspicuous. To solve this issue, it is possible to purchase additional solar panels that can be discretely placed to capture the suns rays and power the device.
Conclusion

To top it off, having both a water deterrent and a variable ultrasonic repeller, this is a very capable device that will keep your garden free from cats with the minimum of fuss. The designer of this unit built it from the ground up to solve his own problem with animal intruders, and you can tell it was designed to work well and solve a problem effectively. It is also worth noting that with the release of Version 2 of this device the designer of this product offers personal support for this device, which is pretty special these days.
haven’t purchased just yet,have read alot of reviews on amazon,alot of negativity,what can you say to sway me??????????????
Hey Dominic
I checked with the manufacturer and they did have an issue with the spigot, but the unit is good to go now. The Amazon reviews pretty much all say the Guardener unit works great, but yeh some people noted an issue with that spigot initially.
I am wanting to buy a motion detection sprinkler, which is hose free. The purpose is to keep possums away from our pool area (they walk along the pool fence and poo falls into the pool!). I live is Brisbane Australia, a warm climate of 20-30+ degree heat celcius in the summer. I am not sure if the heat will cause issues, as one review mentioned it may cause problems with the motion detection?
Which option works best? The 2 I can see are:
1)Havahart Spray Away Elite II Hose-Free

2)Guardener A201 2.0
https://catrepellentguide.com/ultrasonic-cat-repellents/guardener-a201-2-0/
Or are there other better options?
Does the spray just go straight ahead, or the rotates and sprays 360 degrees?
Thanks for your help,
Sorry for the late reply.
1)Havahart Spray Away Elite II Hose-Free
https://catrepellentguide.com/water-cat-deterrents/havahart-spray-away-elite-ii-hose-free-motion-activated-sprinkler-animal-repellent/
This fires a jet of water in an arc of about 45 degrees.
2)Guardener A201 2.0
https://catrepellentguide.com/ultrasonic-cat-repellents/guardener-a201-2-0/
This one fores a jet full circle, 360 degrees.
The Havahart is a little more expensive, but it is the more popular product.
Hope that answers your questions!
