Home Surveillance System

[Go Coogs']

There's been some recent burglaries in the neighborhood, so I installed a new surveillance system. Mrs. Rumps wasn't satisfied enough with the alarm system (monitored), the two 9mms sitting at our bedside, the Mossberg 500 12ga mounted under the bed, and our two pitbulls, so the cameras are up.

720p w/ night vision, motion triggered, w/ notification sent to my phone anytime recording starts.

This isn't a Chamber of Commerce commercial for Houston, is it?

Don't you provide your dogs something comfy to lay on?

No

[Bucmonkey]

Can't even imagine being that paranoid.

Things I'll get before a surveillance system:

-A new address

[Shlomart Ben Yisrael]

Coogs's, you need bars on the windows and possibly a moat. With alligators.

[War Wagon]

So, you'll get to watch when somebody steals your stuff. Props to you, I guess.

A lock only keeps an honest man honest. If somebody wants in bad enough, they'll get in.

In 28 years of living in my shit hole, not once has anybody taken a thing from me that I didn't want taken.

Well, no shit. Is water wet, Wags?

[Screw_Michigan]

Suge Knight thinks your surveillance system is over the top.

[BSmack]

Coogs, are you also on Doomsday Preppers?

[Go Coogs']

What he'll get are 20 false notifications on the camera motion sensing every night when the wind blows or dogs walks through the FOV

Yeah, that'd be the work of a moron not buying a third-party software to go with the surveillance system. See, Scott, there is this thing called trial and error and also testing. That's when you spend the time testing each camera's sensitivity, motion triggering, time delays, and adjusting the settings so that kind of shit doesn't happen.

The system is honed in and not one fly, set of headlights, or dogs have given any false alarms. I did the research, cupcake. Works like a champ.

[Go Coogs']

Coogs, are you also on Doomsday Preppers?

Oh, hell no. But I like guns and for my house to be secure and safe. That doesn't make me a prepper; just a Texan.

[Go Coogs']

You must be quite the expert on video surveillance systems by now

I'm sure I could learn a thing or two from your hours of research

I believe its the other way around. You've been surveilling ucant's pad for years.

[Screw_Michigan]

Why so sensitive, bro?

[Dinsdale]

PSST! Hey Rumps...

Scott is in the security biz.

Even I knew that, and I'm a shitty spreadsheeter.

I thought he was in the securities business.

[trev]

I think I would rather move. Plus, all the brick would drive me insane.

Better than being in the insecurities business.

The guns part yes, the completely over the top security system, no.

Most of the rest of us Texans would use the gun to keep the house secure and safe.

[Dinsdale]

Texans are so funny.

Just when they can't get any more silly, they (at least one, anyway) decide that gun ownership and being secure in one's home are uniquely "Texan" attributes.

This is why the rest of us laugh at you.

[MgoBlue-LightSpecial]

I figured Mrs. Rumps was the security system.

I thought we laugh at the KC folk.

We have plenty of time to laugh at both of you.

[Rooster]

No night vision, Goobs? IR capability? Or preferably, thermal? I sense an upgrade in your near future.

[poptart]

Rumps, the pic you posted says it is 2:32 PM and it's only 80 degrees.

Is that accurate?

[Carson]

What's that green stuff all over your yard?

[smackaholic]

I know I'm the last guy to be dropping house smack. But that place looksike converted military buildings. Got a more flattering pic?
