Never got one of those garage door beepers. Did really like the watch that beeped me when I got a phone call before I could carry my phone in my pocket.

Used it basically so elderly Mom, and Bro with MS could call and get me if I was out and about and they had some sort of emergency. This was before the "I;ve fallen and can't get up" services. If it wasn't a big enough emergency for 911, but they still needed help.

When we moved to my current house, after our first 911 call, the local fire department gave use their number and told us to call for any sort of help that wasn't enough for a 911 call. Pretty nice of those guys.
