    Home security: Extremely bright lights for indoor home defense

    Extremely bright lights for indoor home defense

    Posted: 11 Jul 2020 12:42 PM PDT

    Has anyone successfully utilized extremely bright lights for indoor home defense? I found a company that makes 40,000 lumens lights, and am thinking of installing one of them on a remote switch every 6 to 10 feet in the first floor of my home in order to deter home invasions. (For reference a 100 watt light bulb is 1600 lumens). Should I find myself with an attacker or attackers downstairs in the middle of the night, I would activate dozens of 40k lumen lights which would immobilize the assailants with blinding light and allow me and my family to flee or mount a counter assault. Possibly this may also offer protection during the day if the light is bright enough.

    Please let me know if you have any advice for this technique. I am particularly curious to hear any success stories involving deterring attackers or armed groups from precipitating a home invasion with bright lights. Thanks.

    anyone has blueIris AI camera setup? is it reliable?

    Posted: 11 Jul 2020 06:50 AM PDT

    This youtuber details his blueiris AI setup
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fwoonl5JKgo

    Seems to check all the boxes

    - use AI to detect people, cars
    - turn on lights or voice message to warn intruders with person AI detection

    - local storage, no subscriptions
    - record 4k only on detection

    - phone app for alerts?
    - no linux. this kinda sucks for reliability. sounds like you will need to setup PC power backups and failovers

    Can anyone comment if its really as reliable as he claims. Seems to be what most people are looking for

    Would anyone get upset if like your gardener or worker intentionally moved your camera in another direction to point it away from himself?

    Some cars possibly casing my house; need good cameras to document

    Posted: 10 Jul 2020 11:23 PM PDT

    Hey all,

    First I will note that I live in a dense neighborhood and my house happens to be in front of the neighborhood park.

    I believe my house is being cased. Various, probably 5 or 6, cars stop in front of my house anywhere from 5 to 90 seconds.

    1. the most frequent times is a car that has stopped in front of my house 3 times so far. The first two times was at the opposite side walk where the park is. The 3rd time was right in front of the window where my office is. The first two times was for less than a minute. The last time was for over a minute. These 3 times were all in broad daylight.
    2. The next few times were all different cars just randomly stopping in front my house, for no more than 30 seconds at a time. They were all during the day and two at night, at about 10 or 11pm.

    Are there any cameras I can get that is good enough to get their face, car details and license plates?

    Thanks

    Home security on a $1k budget?

    Posted: 10 Jul 2020 09:41 PM PDT

    I'm looking to supplement/layer security already in place. We are armed. Our next step is outfitting the home. There seems to be so many systems out there. I'm willing to spend around $1K. Could consider a subscription.
