More thefts

I had tried to sign up for an email from the local police department the other week in the Greenville, SC area so I could keep up with the crime in the local area. Since I don't live within the Greenville city limits, I can't receive the email updates, but it doesn't really matter since most of it is on the news anyway.

I just finished watching a news story on how people are still getting their A/C-Heat Pump units stolen these days. Since scrap copper brings in a lot of money in today's market, more people are finding that their Heat Pump or A/C doesn't work anymore only to find out the reason why is because their unit was stolen from outside. Since the outside unit works to cool the freon inside the unit, it has a copper coil that many people steal to bring them in about $50 to $100 in scrap metal.

I have a small USB DVR that anyone can purchase with up to 4 cameras to make a 4 camera system that won't break you in the process. I don't have it posted on my website yet, but I will try to get it there soon. With this set up, you can have a video surveillance system at your home for for under $1000.
