I bought an actual house siren, very loud, and have that powered by a smart outlet. Its facing out of my attic vents to the outside. Those sirens above are fine for inside, but you want your neighborhood to hear it.

@synchrocyclotron277 yep exactly what I did. A traditional alarm siren, and I wired a power supply to it that's plugged into SmartThings outlet plug. Never have to worry about batteries and extra loud. In a location where it's hard to get to or unplug. Where neighborhood can hear it. SmartThings is mainly my lighting control and automation with Smart Home Monitor as backup to my traditional alarm system.

I have 2 of these. Work well. Kind of hard to find now, but good product if you can. Just looking around, seems there’s not many options available right now. Everything is Sold out.

Aeotec. And I actually had a break in, the burglar found one of the two sirens, unplugged it, put it in the sink and turned on the tap. I got back in time and they had already left in a hurry (nothing significant taken, just made a mess of the place), but the damn thing is STILL working to this day.
