This looked kind of promising, but very limited info on their website,
especially pricing. I called and found that it ONLY works with Solid
Optics transceivers, and once you buy it at pricing from $600 to $900,
you then have to pay $300 per year or it becomes a (relatively small and
ineffective for use with anything bigger than a skateboard) wheel chock.
