My workstation telephone rang. I was about to go fetch Cheryl at that moment. I would want to unwind with my wife after working hard at the office. The last thing I would like was to become held back by a telephone call from a client.

The one on the other side of the phone was my spouse, Cheryl. Burglars broke into our home. Without my knowing it, my cell phone had quit on me, and she understood it the minute she was the one that got the call. The police were already around. My do it yourself home security system had alarmed her. I went to the car.

That is a cordless security system which I had set up just a month right before that moment.

Assuming that the system's detectors notice a door or window getting forced open, or a burglar's action, an alarm gets activated and also sends out a signal to a base unit. This then calls one of approximately 5 saved numbers.

The very first recorded number is my mobile phone number. As soon as the system contacts, it plays a prerecorded warning message, and I can pay attention to just what is ensuing within our home or shout at a burglar through the base device. Or I could deactivate the device. The next number listed, which is Cheryl's number, will be called if I neither answer my phone nor disarm the system.

Our HomeSafe wireless home security system includes a base device with an AC adaptor, a movement sensor that possess an eight-yard range, and a remote control with panic feature for arming and disarming the unit. There is also one window or door sensor with wireless transmission approximately 250 feet.

A remote control can be obtained by each user of the system. The unit needs a landline with tone dialing, as well as does not work on all digital lines, however works on all analog lines.

Cheryl had phoned 911 immediately. The police said the alarm must have startled the burglars off just before they could get anything. Cheryl and I could finally spend the rest of the evening relaxing. Pretty good for a do it yourself home security system.
