Question:

Home Defense: I live in a ghetto. Is there a cheap way to put cameras all over the place?

I have done everything I can for Home defense: gate, fence, dog, lights, burglar bars and doors, guns, you name it. But I would like to have cameras on the front yard, the back yard and the entrance to the front and back door and the hall in case I get a home invasion. At least they would catch the guys who killed me. I figure if they can stick a video camera in a phone, then the technology has gotten to the point where video is cheap. Two questions: 1) Is it hard to get see-in-the-dark video cameras, or has the price gone down?2) Is there some way to store the tape/data in the internet, so burglars couldn't find the recorder and damage/steal it?

What kind of alarm? Different alarm has different ways to disarm it. Some are done with the remote, some has a hidden switch. Some can be set to active or passive. Active is always On, when you take the key off the ignition and lock the car, the alarm senses it and arms itself. Passive, you always have to manualy press the remote to arm the alarm. Remove the battery again, wait about a few minutes, then connect again. Locate the switch (sometimes called valet switch) and press and hold it while you put key in ignition and turn it on (not start) wait for about 5 seconds and alarm will be turned off. If you want to permanently disable the alarm, then just remove the fuse for the alarm unit, just make sure it was not triggered before you do this, because if it was triggered then the kill switch is also active (on) and you wont be able to start your car.
