Home Security Store – Keeping Burglars Out on a Budget

Jan. 15, 2009 - PRLog -- Are you looking for a way to keep your family and home safe, but you have to do it on a budget?  The Fake TV is a device that might be the answer you are looking for.  The FTV-10 Fake TV Burglar Deterrent Device has a fancy name, but the device is simple in concept and well worth it.

The Fake TV is intended to stop would be burglars by making it seem that someone is home watching television when in reality you might be sleeping, not at home at all, or on vacation.  The Fake TV uses an array of colored, flashing LEDs to create the illusion of the effect of a real TV.  It uses a built in computer to control super bright LEDs to produce light of varying intensity and color that lights up a room.  It comes off as real TV scene changes, fades, flicks, and camera pans.  The color changes are both subtle and dramatic making it completely unpredictable.

According to one study, test subjects were not able to tell if it was a Fake TV or not, even when they knew it had to be one or the other.  One test subject said, “I thought what was on was a news program and now a bunch of commercials are playing.  It must be real TV.”  This subject was wrong.  The message is clear to would be burglars - this home is occupied, move on to an easier target.      

The Fake TV is environmentally friendly and can save you money.  It uses only a fraction of the electricity of a real TV, consuming about the same amount of power as a night light.  Plus, if you use the Fake TV this would allow less wear and tear on your new flat screen!  Come visit http://www.homesecuritystore.com/ and make your home an unappealing choice for a break-in.
