A smart home requires smart protection. Todays home security systems have pushed the bar higher by making their systems more powerful and smarter. But my previous experience with home security has proven me that home security systems are not reliable enough so that I can feel comfortable enough in my own home. Instead of buying those expensive home security systems I as a lot other people have decided to take another approach to make our homes safer.
The alternative option that is available for everyone are gadgets. Gadgets nowadays are more powerful and smarter than ever and if you carefully make a smart compilation of the right gadgets you will manage to have a more powerful home system than the expensive ones. Most home security systems are equipped with a live video streaming that you aren’t able to control, an alarm that makes a large noise everytime you come in late at night and an automatic trigger to call the police but in most cases they come 5 minutes later.
Every other home security system is mostly combined with these above mentioned features plus some extra features that aren’t even helpful to you home security but seem cool. There is no point in paying a large amount of money for a security that stills dosen’t granee that none will break into your home. Instead of paying a large amount of money here are several gadgets that will help you make a exact replica of a home security system for half the price.
Useful home security gadgets
When I removed my home security system which cost me 500$ every month I replace it with gadgets that in total with installation costed me about 200$. The gadgets that I got for my home are: alarm that can be controlled manually and automatically, the ultimate home security G700 flashlight that can light up your yard continuously and also can serve as a neutralizing weapon from any kind of danger and several live streaming video cameras.
Alarms
There are a lot of advanced alarm systems on the open market that are cheap and very reliable. The one that I got is the XT303 alarm which can be controlled with your android phone or your iPhone but if you aren’t very good with phones you can also control the XT303 manually. This alarm system is available on Amazon for the price of just 40$ dollars.
Flashlight
The flashlight that I integrated in my home security system is the Lumitact G700 Military flashlight. This flashlight is an advanced piece of technology that has a lumen power of 1000 lumens which can instantly turn night into a day with just one simple click. With its highly large lumen capacity the G700 flashlight is able to neutralize any kind of potential danger. You can get this flashlight at their official website theg700flashlight.com – Lumitact G700: The Only True Military Flashlight Review for 56$ dollars.
Video Cameras
The most expensive part of my home made security systeme were the video cameras but when it comes to my homes safety there is no expensive things. The video camers that I got for my home security were GoPros that have are equipped with 720p and the live streaming performances were amazing. Since I don’t have a large home I got only 2 cameras that covered my entire yard and house for the price of 50$ dollars. You can get these video cameras on Amazon or EBay.
