michelle c asked:


I am looking for a no contracts apartment home security system.

Theres only one entrance to our apartment as we’re on level 2, so the door is the one place that needs covering; I’m looking for something that will make a LOUD noise when the door is opened after I have set the alarm to ‘on’.

This may take the form of a laser beam or something similar?

I do have a cat - if she is likely to set it off at night, its not a problem to keep her away in the bathroom, but pls can you state whether the cat would/wouldn’t set the alarm off.

Thanks!!!

David M asked:


Hi, i’m trying to figure how to make a home security circuit. I can’t figure how to make a buzzer go off if a door/window is opened. Am i right in thinking i’m going to need a parallel circuit with with 2 resistors with a higher resistor above the door (higher resistor meaning with more resistance) and a lower resistor on the door for when the door’s closed. Thanks

New Home Owner asked:


We currently have Brink’s security system and pay Comcast for a VOIP line for the security system to use. We don’t use that line for anything else and I feel that it is a waste of money. Is there any types of home security system that works through broadband or wi-fi? Thanks.

fbimgc asked:


3 doors, 1 motion detector, 1 keypad, 1 siren, 1 control panel, 1 lawn sign, 10 window stickers, and a certificate to get a home insurance discount…How much is all that worth if they are offering free installation too? Is $34.95 a month too much to pay for monitoring?
