Do It Yourself Home Security


Did you hear about the family in New Hampshire who caught a burglar - in their house - in the act? This story made the news recently. This family had a video home security system installed in their house. When the burglar entered the house the hidden video camera kicked on and sent an alert to the homeowner while she was at work! One quick call to the local police and minutes later the criminal was on his way to jail!

The motion detection triggered the video camera to capture video - which could be immediately uploaded to the web and send an alert to the homeowner! How cool is that? The technology available today is fantastic. And is surprisingly affordable.

The system this family had is available for about the price of a 32" Hi-Def TV. They probably had less than $500 invested in their in-house video surveillance system. You can buy these systems at Amazon - or even some local Walmarts.

Here is the Digital Video Security System they used. This system has some awesome capabilities. You can store the video right on your own computer - or choose to have it automatically uploaded to the Internet where you can then view it online! ( This must be the option they had in place - since she could see the burglars in her house - while she was miles away at work! )

Times are tough. Unfortunately some people choose to steal in order to satisfy their own needs. The good news is - you can protect your family, your home and your hard earned possessions.

Here is another site for some inexpensive tips on Home Security.
