Re: Home security problem
I ring your doorbell.
Bang, I instantly know if you're at home or not*.
(*unless it's the 31st October).
This is really a dubious concern anyway. My house pulls electric at all times of the day, throughout the day, whether I'm there or not. It'd be a CINCH however for a mobile telecommunications operator to tell you whether I was at my registered address or not.
And probably most people give their details away to an airport car park every time they go on holiday and park in the long-stay car parks.
It's really a null concern. If your house is insecure, secure it. If someone's gonna break in, it's not gonna be some highly-targeted affair. And if someone breaks in, your alarm is bog-useless too (have it notify you, or it's just pointless - only you know if it SHOULD be going off, and only you care about someone burgling you, and only YOU should need to deal with false alarms).
