XCam2 Catches Burglars in the Act!
By Levi Wynnyk |
About 1 year ago someone broke into our garage and stole my family's mountain bikes, as well as my snowboard. After that, we decided we had to improve our security. I installed an X10 security system consisting of four XCam2s and an XRay Vision USB adapter.
About two weeks ago, some punks broke into our garage again and, guess what.... they stole our bikes again! But this time we had the entire thing captured on our computer! I was able to take all of the footage and pictures off our computer, burn them to a CD, and give them to the police so that we could catch these guys.
I also contacted the local news station here in Edmonton and they ran a story about my security system. They even showed the footage of the thieves on the air in hopes that someone would recognize them. All of this would never have been possible without X10's inexpensive security system. Thanks X10!
