A good friend recently shared a link to a portable home security system called SimpliSafe.   A $19 starter kit includes a base station, wireless keypad, entry sensors for protecting windows and doors, and a keychain remote to turn the alarm on and off. The service itself costs $15/month. It uses a cellular wireless connection to stay in contact with its monitoring service. According to the website, if the alarm is tripped a SimpliSafe operator calls to check in. If the customer does not pick up the phone or provide a safe word they notify police department.Â
SimpliSafe markets itself as being portable and easy to install. Because it operates through a wireless connection with the base station, it does not need to be hardwired in the home or apartment and can easily be relocated. For more information, check out the link below.
