Wireless Home Security Systems
I've tried reading through some of the threads in this newsgroup to get an idea about some of these wireless home security systems/alarms, but frankly I was unable to find out any useful information.
Everybody on here seems so cocky and quasi aggresive and recalcitrant. Not everyone, of course, but lots of the posters. It sort of makes the whole industry look bad.
Where can I go to actually find unbiased opinions on these types of systems ? The ones like the GE/ProtectAmercica and SecureHome SecureLink II systems. Is there any site that ranks/reviews/tests these systems ? Sort of like Consumer Reports.
Also, in general, are these systems at least somewhat reliable in real life situations ? I'm not trying to protect the crown jewels here, just my TV, stereo, and computer. I live in an apartment building.
I am a little worried other wireless devices will set of the alarm. I'm also worried my cat will set off the motion detector. I've seen ones that say they are "pet proof", but am somewhat doubtful. Does anyone have real world experience with these motion detectors and a cat ?
Thanks for any helpful advice.
cheers, e
