Almost intruder....?

A good quality door and frame is sage advice. Another option is something like this. Or combine the two.

Do Alarms Really Work?

We have the Arlo Pro kit from there. plus add on cameras.

Love the totally WIRELESS system.

How long do the batteries last before you have to re-charge?

That makes three!

Mine last anywhere from 4-6 months and then I have to recharge them. The advantage to the pro series is they are rechargeable.

Cool, thanks. Been looking for a home security system and this just got added to the list.

I was shocked how easy it was to install and set up as well.

since were talking about security cameras, can someone talk me out of doing a hardwired camera system vs a wireless? am i crazy to think some burglers would try to interrupt the wireless signal? idk much about that stuff.

Ok
Lots of way to set them up to last up to 10 weeks ... get that or more on 3 of them cuz of critters.... 4 legged ones.

The other 2 are set in very I traffic areas, lots of alerts.... these see anything that happens in my culdesac and driveway, also mail boxes.

I get about a month or more on 1 and I put a solar charger on the other.... no worries there.
You can run up to 5 cameras on the one base station.

Hopes this helps.

I'm very happy with my arlo cameras...
Caught and stopped squatters at a vacant house next door. No more issues guess the words out.

My buddy across the street got them also after I showed them a few videos.

Intersted as well on folks thoughts.

My personal opinion, most breakins are by druggies who just want a quick smash & grab. They are not too bright, and don't want anything to do with a difficult score.

Next up would be the more organized folk, whom know what they are looking for. These types would be rare (IMO), and more likely to spend the time "casing" a place. Still not particularly bright, so any alarm system/camera system, and they pd go on to easier pickings.

Further up from that would be "professional" wanna be's. Haven't heard of them to be honest, in our area.

And further up from that would be professional organized crime, the type that would home invade for high value (art, jewelry, pm's) perhaps even for hostage/ransom. Movie type stuff rare.

I like the wireless Arlo cameras, however I personally prefer hardwired cameras. Power over Ethernet or PoE cameras are my preference. Easy to install, no monthly fees and and come with a nice mobile app.
I have multiple layers of deterrence/protection. Some wireless, some wired and some I cannot confirm nor deny...

Here are some actual still images from the above cameras.
(Not my images, these are from a buddy in Midwest)

Didn't know they had camo. Was just now thinking on how to go about camoing a few up. Some nice perches I can think of to place a few about...

Thanks!

Foscam WiFi PTZ cameras work well with BlueIris for me.
