Default Quick question about SHOCK SENSOR?

i have a shock sensor on my alarm, now would the shock sensor make my alarm go off if someone broke any of my windows or do i need to get a glass audio breakage sensor?

It depends on how they break the window and how high the sensor is set. It could not hurt to have one

Shock sensors are not effective at triggering from a broken window (unless someone really slams on it with a baseball bat). If you turned the sensitivity up high enough to detect a soft break (which is very common for thieves to do using various techniques), then the sensor would false almost constantly. That's why shock sensors suck, hence the topic "why shock sensors suck" in my writeup.
