$1000 hurts but way better than $5k replacement

TJ,
My son lives on TMR just up from the store about 1/2 mile, he was ripped off a while back.
Where are you at if you don't mind me asking?

Real bummer Trav, I feel for ya. I had my pickup stolen a while back with a bunch of hunting stuff in it and a tool box full of all the woods/hunting truck necessities, still pisses me off

Sorry for that.
I cannot stand thieves. My wife’s car got hit twice several years ago.

The best thing I ever did was go to Harbor Freight and for ten bocks buy a drive way chime.

Anything breaks the beam ding dong right next to my bed.

Peace of mind.

This is a great idea. After having my side by side stolen recently I’m beefing up the security system a bit. Its not all about having a gun i learned!

I swear by the chamberlain driveway alarm
You can get multiple modules that chime with different number of chimes
I use that and also home security cams on the cell phone and ADT works pretty well
Use a backup game cam or 2 and your golden

Really it’s better than cameras, which I have. But cameras are after the fact, the chime is real time and if you are home you might deter them before and damage is done.

Once they figure out that you are alerted, they might pass you by next time. :twocents:

Not sure what cameras you're referring to, but nearly all the models I look at these days are in real time sending messages to my phone the second they happen.

Well I guess it depends on how attached you are to your phone. My cameras send to my IPad I don’t own a smart phone. And that’s ok if you are way from home.
But in the middle of the night I think the chime works better.
Most camera shots I have don’t give a good enough pic to ID in a lot of cases.

The Op knows it was a guy on a bike. Not much help getting his stuff back. Had he been alerted at the time maybe he would still have his stuff.  :dunno:

I guess in real time I meant alerted right now. If your phone tone will wake you up right now, that works too.

I’m going “all in” on security now... ring, motion lights, and I like the idea of the chimes as well.
