3.4“ Round German Reflector | Silver Mirror | Flat | Plastic | for USE with POLORIZED Super Retro-Reflective |PHOTOELECTRIC SENSORS | Photo Beam Sensor | Very HIGH LUMINANCE Factor 6000 X

This reflector has met and exceeded my expectations. I've had it exposed to all sorts of weather conditions including wind speeds greater than 60 miles an hour. With no indications of water Ingress into the housing, it is still just as reflective as the day i bought it.

Worked as expected! Gate exit sensor was broken causing the gate to stay open. Replaced this reflector and the gate returned to normal function.

Great for backyard rolling gate laser

Easy to install and waterproof — a perfect fit for replacing the reflector on my gate and driveway. The quality is excellent, and it was delivered quickly. It solved my gate sensor issue right away and works exactly as described. My only complaint is that the price is a little on the higher side, but overall, I’m very satisfied.

I needed a solution for my two gates not closing in early mornings when the reflector was covered with dew, I was hoping that a better reflector would be able to reflect the beam through the droplets. wiping the reflectors with a rag allowed the electronic eye (aka photoelectric sensor) to sense that there is no obstruction and closed the gate.the first time I purchased these reflectors, I did not pay attention who the seller was (Gate Openers Unlimited) and I received cheap Chinese sate-lite 35 reflectors, identical to the reflectors which were originally installed on our gates, luckily I was able to return them at no cost.there is definitely a difference between the Chinese reflectors and the German ones, however, I cannot quantify it since I do not have any instruments to measure.the German reflector seems clearer and has fewer but larger corner reflectors. when I converted the reflector with my hand, I was able to get enough of a reflection to trigger the photosensor even when about 90% of the reflector was covered (though I did not try the same test with the cheap Chinese reflector)in an attempt to prevent dew droplets from collecting on the reflectors, I also put each reflector inside a 3" ABS cap (which has an inside diameter of about 3.5") and then stuck a short length of 3" ABS pipe into the cap, forming a hood (see enclosed photo), which, in theory, should protect the reflectors from dew/moisture/rainbut as we all know, In theory, there Is no difference between theory and practice, while In practice there Is...yet so far, in two mornings, the gate was able to automagically close, there was plenty of dew on the ABS pipe, and nothing on the reflectorthe only disadvantage to the ABS pipes that I see as of now, is that I'll have to watch for spiders making a house inside the ABS pipe, as their web will block the light

I wish these were available in a multi-pack for better pricing.Extremely reflective and ideal for long range beam sensors. For maximum range (like 50' to 200') where the sensor beam has broadened out, use multiple reflectors in a tight cluster with a homemade weather hood. If condensation (dew) on the reflector is a problem, attaching the reflectors to a homemade 12V-24V aluminum 'warming plate' gently heated by bolt-on 'power resistors' will solve that - only a couple of watts will warm the reflectors above the dew point. You can insulate the rear side of the aluminum plate or mount it to wood. (FYI: Watts = Volts x Current, or Current^2 x Resistance, or Volts^2 / Resistance).

I am using this reflector to replace one mounted at the end of my driveway that is used to trigger my lights on that failed when exposed to the weather elements. This reflector is constructed better and overhaul looks much better.

The reflector disk was the right size for the cover or hood I had in the gate. I installed it and it is working OK. Had to modify the size of the hole that holds the screw was too small for the screw the hood had! Only a minor inconvenience and it could have been generated by the company that installed the gate!
