Strain Gauge Sensors

OK, now I need a source for a good "floor squeek" wav file. I want my HA system to play the floor squeek sound whenever the pulsor is triggered.
These will cost you a few pennies, but may work:

I like floor creak 8/10/12 :lol:
 
Does it trigger twice? Once when you get on the bed and again when you get off?

What about one of those security mats that goes under a rug... Can you put one of those between a mattress and box spring?

I'm not sure what you are trying to sense, but maybe a moisture sensor is in order here :lol: .

I just installed some of these and have them hooked up through my Elk with MainLobby as the interface.
I havent messed with them much yet but....

When I stand on top of one, I get a brief change in status in ML.
Is there a way to for these to detect and show "on" constantly when someone is standing on one. Then go back to off when the person leaves?

I put 2 on the joists under my bed. I am trying to get a constant "on" when someone is in bed.

Thanks
Ty
THIS would have been ideal for your bed application.
