| Does there exist a long-range driveway monitor for entering cars or people? Posted: 20 Mar 2020 05:26 PM PDT My house has a sort of long driveway leading down to it, and it's downhill from the road so there's really no conceivable way to get onto the property except the driveway. I would love to have something that alerts me whenever someone pulls into or out of the driveway, but the entry is too far away for anything wired unless there are much longer wires available than I realized. Does anyone know of any sort of device that could work? Something solar powered the transmits via radio or something? Or something else that accomplishes the same purpose? [link] [comments] |

| Posted: 20 Mar 2020 07:50 AM PDT I'm recently married with the gal of my dreams, but now I'm living in Brazil with my brazilian wife, and I just discovered she's paying around 160 dollars a month for a security system, which includes: - Alarm (two keypads) - 4 exterior cameras - Three motion sensors (not even sensors for windows or doors, and the motion sensors are not programmed to ignore pets). - Professional monitoring (video and alarm). It's way too expensive, but I've looked around, and the options in Brazil are not much cheaper in general. So I am trying to come up with a DIY system to install myself save the video to a pc or NAS, and then have the option to give a company to monitor the alarm. I want: - Smart home integration (Google or Alexa) - 4 PoE cameras - at least two of them with internal batteries (or maybe, two wired cameras and two wireless ones... but I don't want to change or charge the batteries often) - Motion sensors (able to discriminate pets) - IFTTT options - One keypad - App integration to arm or disarm the alarm - Doors and windows sensors - Garage door - Options to auto upload to NAS and even Google Drive I know I am asking a lot for a DIY security system, but I'd appreciate a lot if you point me to the right direction. Thanks for reading. edit: budget under 1600 dollars (so payable in 10 months). I'd like to include a battery pack so that the receiver / NAS doesn't go out when there's no power. [link] [comments] |
| Having a difficult time sifting through camera options, need guidance Posted: 20 Mar 2020 07:13 AM PDT Hi All, I'm looking at getting 2-3 indoor cameras for my home as my wife and I are expecting a child, and may have to go with a nanny for childcare. The breadth of what's available is a little overwhelming and I was hoping for some guidance. For reference, I have a few smart devices in my home currently, and they're all under the google assistant/home ecosystem. Some criteria for me. Cost matters, but is probably a secondary consideration. I'm looking for good quality--of the images as well as ability to notice motion, etc.--and reliability over everything else. Other features are a definite bonus like facial recognition, differentiating people from animals, etc. would also be great. Devices I've been somewhat zero'd in on:
I'm also open to any and all suggestions. I feel a little in over my head here. ANy help is appreciated. [link] [comments] |
