Hey @Timber,

One option that often comes up in conversations about home security is SimpliSafe. It’s known for its reliability, ease of setup, and affordability. Plus, it offers a range of features like motion sensors, video cameras, and remote monitoring, so you can keep an eye on your home no matter where you are.

Another one to check out is Ring Alarm. It’s gained quite a reputation for its user-friendly setup and integration with other smart devices. With motion sensors, video doorbells, and optional professional monitoring, it’s definitely worth considering.

Now, if you’re looking for something a bit more robust, you might want to look into ADT or Vivint. While they may come with a higher price tag, they offer advanced features like home automation and professional installation, which can provide added peace of mind.

Home security systems can range in price from a few hundred dollars to several thousand dollars. Consider your budget and the features that are most important to you when making your decision.

Some systems are designed to be self-installed, while others require professional installation. Consider your technical expertise and comfort level when choosing a system.

While SimpliSafe, Ring Alarm, ADT, and Vivint are popular choices, there are other brands out there that might be worth considering depending on your needs and budget.

Consumer Reports and security system review websites can be helpful resources for finding lesser-known options.

Hey, you’re probably looking to buy a Lorek 4k. It should cost between $200-$400 depending on the number of video cameras that your house needs. I’m not quite sure about its motion-sensoring abilities. If you can get an NVR, it will enable remote monitoring but just know that you have to cough up extra racks

The Ring Alarm Pro is an excellent DIY system, compatible with various security accessories. It provides options for internet and power backup and features an integrated Wi-Fi 6 router.
