SVAT WRC101 Wireless Outdoor Remote Control Power Outlet

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Security and Surveillance
from: SVAT Electronics

February 21, 2007
Product worked at advertised. One thing I wasn't prepared for was that the switches were all on the same frequency. If you purchased multiple switches one control will turn on multiple switches. Or conversely, if you have multiple controls, anyone will turn on all the wireless switches. It wasn't a bad thing, in my case, but it is something that should be made clear before purchasing. Other than that, these wireless switches work great.

Panasonic BL-C131A Network Camera Wireless 802.11

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Security and Surveillance
from: Panasonic


We need to check well, what model is good for your work, since BL-C130 is similar to BL-131A. Finally I choose BL-C130, and I am very hapy for the easy way has amazon to interchange or return items that you really want and need.

Panasonic BL-PA100KTA Ethernet Adaptor Starter Pack Includes two HD-PLC (High Definition Power Communication)

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Security and Surveillance
from: Panasonic


I read the reviews and understood it was a roll of the dice. Decided to take my chances, and sure enough, in my environment I got no signal.
(Actually I did get signal between certain outlets, but none in the rooms I needed to connect.)
It would be nice if there was some kind of inexpensive testing kit to determine ahead of time whether this would work. They do seem to be accustomed to returns though, the box has clear repacking instructions on the inside cover.

TRENDnet Wireless Advanced Pan/Tilt Internet Camera Server TV-IP400W (Version B1.xR)

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Security and Surveillance
from: TRENDnet


I ordered this camera because the product description stated that it allowed "users to access the camera anywhere in the world by using a Web browser." In my work, we are doing a lot of video, audio conferencing using packages such as NetMeeting, SharedView, Communicator and son on. I, naively, assumed that a product making such a claim, would be easily set up in a way that allowed me to see what was going on in my living room while I was at work, on the road or on vacation. What follows, is my story.

One clarification: I am not a geek, but I am not technologically dumb either. For example, I have some understanding of DHCP, DNS, IP, firewalls, routers and 802.11 but I'd rather not mess up with them.

I did not encounter too many problems ... Read More:

GE SmartHome Wireless Alarm System Kit #51107

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Security and Surveillance
from: GE



I use the GE alarm system as a deterrant for any intruders. It surely does not have any fancy security features, but the loud noise will surely drive anyone trying to break in away! The alarms for the windwos however, could not be placed on my specific sliding doors and windows. Overall, this basic system serves its purpose of maiking a loud annoying noise to drive people away.

Intermatic Wireless Window Alarm, White #SP440B

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Security and Surveillance
from: Intermatic


This product, in theory is a wonderful idea. However, the double sided tape fails miserably to hold the two sides of the alarm to the window/door surface. Indoor house temperatures were normal, no severe cold, heat, or humidity. But upon returning home the first day, one alarm had fallen and rung to the point of a dead battery. Within the first week, all four had fallen and were ringing their alarms -some faintly by that time and others at close to full decibal level. Would hot glue or that super tacky stuff the infomercial pushes be the answer?!?

SVAT GX5203 Wireless Portable Video Security System – 2.5-Inch LCD & Outdoor Night Vision Surveillance Camera

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Security and Surveillance
from: SVAT Electronics


The SVAT GX5203 is more like for baby watching purposes, not good enough for surveillance. It is also a battery eater. It looks well built, except by the fact that the batteries need to be removed to feed the monitor with the AC Adaptor.

Panasonic BL-C111A Network Camera Wired

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Security and Surveillance
from: Panasonic


I own two of the older model 311's and have recently installed one of these 111's in my house. the admin menu for this camera has more options then the 311's, which are nice. The sound feature works in Firefox, while the 311's don't. The quality of the images don't seem quite as sharp as the 311, but it's still ok for home surveillance. The 111 does MPEG video, which is better then the 311 options and means that the recorded images are very portable and readable by others. I've owned both Axis and Toshiba network cameras in the past and the Panasonic line is far better on numerous counts. The C111 Panasonic is a great choice for those looking for 1-way audio, Pan-Tilt and good recording software in the box. -Highly Recommended!

Toshiba PA1390U-1NKP Slim USB Numeric Keypad with 2-Port USB Hub

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Security and Surveillance
from: Toshiba


I bought this based on recommendations that it worked with OS X. It most certainly does not work. Since it was a birthday gift, I was an utter failure.
