Forget The Burglar Alarm, The Fake TV Will Fend Off Any Intruders

fakeTV.jpgUsing a TV usually isn't thought of as the best way to scare off burglars, being one of their first targets and all...unless it's a fake TV. Created by author/inventor Blaine Readler, the FakeTV is just that, a device that simulates the flicker of a TV with the intention of tricking the would-be intruder into thinking someone is home. A built-in computer designed by Opto-Electronic Design controls LEDs that simulate the actual color variations and intensities of a real TV. Why get an expensive alarm system when a little online hunting will net you the FakeTV for only $49!

Even a simple web cam can do a good job on recording burglar, not to mention more expensive systems. I use web cab that can detect motion. It's amazing how burglars strike whenever they see an opportunity. Now, when the vacation time is coming I took an extra step to make my home, and not only car secure. I have purchased a CD with burglar deterrent sounds, which I play every day in my apartment when I leave it for work. And I will play it non stop when I go on vacation in July. The sound quality is OK, nothing spectacular, but since you are listening to it through the closed door, it works great. Web site is: www.DeterrentSounds.com. Another good site is www.audioguard.com.
