  We had an attempted break in while I was away on work travel - ended up going with Nest as I didn't want to deal with batteries, and could easily hard wire into a box that our porch light uses. Also operates at colder temperatures than most of the others in its class.

  Only downside is that recording is proprietary and fee based. I'm sure there will eventually be some way around it, if there's not already.

  If only a deterrent, it's well worth the money, but as an aside we've recorded some pretty funny shit on it, including my girlfriend getting her purse strap caught on the screen door handle and falling on her ass.

  So, yeah... Nest.

  • haha! Yeah, our outdoor lights kept getting knocked over and I figured it was the neighborhood kids. Turned out to be a fat raccoon scratching on them.kona
  • I want to see that raccoon footage kona!BuddhaHat
  • lol! That and a ton of deer setting off the motion record. Ben mentioned it, I don't pay the fee so I can only view the clips, they aren't recorded. it's weirdkona
