BarnTalk is the only wireless barn alarm with certified multi-carrier connectivity built right into the system. Once you plug the BarnTalk Gateway into power, it connects to the strongest local cell tower, regardless of carrier, eliminating the need for a landline, WiFi, or hotspot. BarnTalk sends alarms via push notification, SMS text message or phone call based on the user’s preferences. For optimal alarms and monitoring, you’ll need a BarnTalk subscription. This subscription covers connectivity and data costs.
