Licence Plate Frame Parking Sensor
By deborah d on Reviewed in the United States on October 19, 2017
I love this new sensor to help alert drivers when they are too close to something. Works great for a back wall, pole, the back of the garage, a carport, etc. I have two teens, one that just started driving and one that will be soon. This is great to help them 'see' behind them just a little better. I put it at the back of the car, with a little help from my son to install it, but they can be put on the front of a car too. It is as easy to install as a regular license plate frame, but this one has special sensors on it. It connects with a smart phone, via bluetooth, to send out an alert if the car is too close to a wall. It detects up to 10 feet away so that is awesome for new drivers (also senior drivers or ones easily distracted). I love that the battery lasts five months before it needs to be replaced too. From the outside it look like a regular license plate frame. It is black and nondescript. But the sensors alert drivers that there is something nearby. This isn't to replace someone using their own vision and judgement driving and is only an additional aid. But I love the added aid in helping my kids learn to park in my garage without hitting the back wall.

EDIT - Sensors are faulty, did not last a year.

I had written a glowing review on Fensens, and need to go from 5 stars to 1. I use it on the front my my Lexus, and the right sensor has stopped consistently working. You get zero from the left, while the right continues to work. Contacting Tech support, is brutal. I'm getting short replies, "pull the battery", which I did - with no success. WORSE - there is a thin rubber gasket that fits behind the batter door. It's 100% impossible to keep it in place putting the batter door back on. EVEN WORSE - the batteries pop out the multiple times before you can finally get them to stay in, "try" to use the gasket and get the door back on. The only way around the design flaws is to remove the Fensens completely. I asked Tech support if there was a trick to keeping the gasket in in, "wet it and it will stick". No it doesn't. With the left sensor working only 1 in 20 uses, terrible battery change issues, I feel like I got screwed right at 12 months. It's a shame. The concept is good, it fills a problem/need if you don't have front end sensors. Sadly, design flaws for the battery change, and failing sensors makes this useless. It gets WORSE - they updated their app to work for both a Camera and a Sensor. The app is confused when you start it up. Even when you select Sensor, it tries to start up a camera that doesn't exist on my car, creating an error message. What a mess. So 5 starts to 1 - Hope this gets the attention of the Entrepreneur. He has messed up a great idea.
