However, if you just want to check in on your house, children or dog, the camera provides a real time peek through any web connected computer, smartphone or tablet. It can also look at all three and more, with support for up to 16 cameras around the house. Price: Approx. $375The Piper NV is a follow up of the original Piper from iControl. Like the standard Piper, the NV boast a 180 degree field of view. As is standard with iControl Networks’ first generation Wi Fi enabled Piper security camera, the night vision model can be set to detect motion and to integrate with other Z Wave devices, such as thermostats and lights switches. This enables the camera to activate the lights and adjust the thermostat when it senses motion, for example. The camera can also monitor the temperature, humidity, light level and sound, and send you a text or email alert if these conditions exceed a certain predefined threshold. Videos recorded by the Piper are stored on a cloud sever and accessible via smartphone or tablet. Piper NV comes in either white or black for $279. Dropcam was purchased by Nest in 2014, and there are neat ways you can integrate the two, but the Dropcam Pro is also a good DIY home security camera without the Nest thermostat.

burglar alarm service

I purchased Brinks Home Complete with Video, which includes the Brinks Home Touch, a SkyBell Slim Line Video Doorbell, a glass break detector, and a cellular communicator. Installation is DIY, although you’ll have some help over the phone, and professional monitoring is not required!However, if you do choose professional monitoring, Brinks only offers binding three year contracts, a definite drawback. On a more positive note, Brinks has a 4. 1 Google rating and excellent customer support reviews. To control and monitor your system, you’ll use the Alarm. com app, which has ratings of 4. 4 on both the Apple and Google Play stores. A fine option all around. Hi Caytlin, I’m sorry to hear that you’ve been burglarized!If you’re looking to self monitor, SimpliSafe is not a good choice as you won’t be able to livestream footage, receive notifications, or control your system remotely. Since your Internet connection isn’t great you should definitely look for a system with cellular or landline backup. I’d look into abode.

Perhaps some environmental sensors to protect you and your family from fire or water intrusion events. And, of course, the convenience of home automation features so you can control and manage your home handsfree and/or remotely. If you are a renter, your needs will be a bit different. For example, you will probably need a portable security system. A portable system is one that is wireless and usually a DIY installation. This will keep you from having to drill holes in your landlord’s walls, which could cost you in repair damages when you move out. Additionally, you will only need indoor cameras versus outdoor and doorbell cameras in most cases. You might also consider window and door sensors, environmental sensors for smoke and water intrusion, a control panel with a panic button and two way talk feature, and any home automation equipment you choose. If you travel often, your needs will focus more on being able to remotely access, monitor, and control your home security and home automation features. For example, if you travel, you might need to remotely unlock your doors for family or guests, turn your lights on and off to make it look like you’re home, turn your thermostat up if an extended freeze is expected, high quality security cameras and doorbell cameras to monitor your home and property while you’re not there. You will also want all the basic security equipment as well, such as a control panel, window and door sensors, motion detectors, environmental protection sensors to protect your home from intruders or potential disasters such as a fire or pipe break, etc.
