Ceiling-mounted Security Camera
You've seen those little round ceiling-mounted security cameras in stores, right? They're kind of creepy up there, aren't they? As if someone is watching your every move, and you can't even tell exactly which direction the lens of the camera is pointing...
Well, now you can have a cool ceiling-mounted security camera like that as a part of your home surveillance system. Now it'll be potential burglars who will feel uncomfortable if they're scoping out your house. The X10 Sentinel camera is designed for outdoor use (mount it above your porch or in the eaves of your house), though there's no reason it couldn't be used indoors too. It can withstand severe weather conditions, and it has such advanced features as 44X zoom, pan, tilt, and easy set up.
The best part is that you can get a wireless version, so you don't have to install a complicated security system with wires in the walls and everything to get it up and running. You can also get a version that's remote controlled via Internet connection, so you could keep an eye on your front door even while you're at work.
This is a neat idea (kind of creepy for burglars) and I wish I'd seen these security cameras before we ordered some other ones. Oh well, I'm sure the ones we got will work just fine even if they aren't mounted in the ceiling.
