Use Your Old TV for a Security System
You only have to install a very small camera (comes with the kit) in a place where no one will know its there. This has been a blessing as where our drive is we do not have a window. Now when someone drives up we can see them. My husband installed a light that comes on with a sensor so it comes on an lights up the place where the camera is aimed.
This is using a TV set that otherwise would not have been used an one of the greatest security systems we could have. I might also add you can have any size TV and also it can be black/white or a color set. This was a very inexpensive system around $40.

Extremely Excellent Idea!
Well, we are "wondering" who has been throwing trash, chewing gum & cigarette butts onto our yard & driveway in a "seemingly nice" city neighborhood. With a VCR hookup, this will definitely do the trick!
Thanks for sharing!
