Home Security Gadgets

FiveFWD - Home security gadgets? Safe! by The Gadget Show's Suzi Perry

Rex10 Barking Dog Alarm system (which is an alarm that uses infrared sensors to detect movement then wirelessly activates a soundbox that recreates a guard dog barking) to the Linksys Wireless-G web camera (a webcam that doesn’t have to link to the computer as long as you have Wi-Fi. You can then log on and receive live video from anywhere with an internet connection. I’ll even email you if there’s some motion in your room!), these bits of safety tech are truly awesome.

Aside from barking dogs and wireless webcams, I also get to grips with “invisible” tagging liquid, smoke machines and crazy wireless intercom systems that ring through to your mobile!

So which home security gadget is number one? Watch the video above to find out!

Gadgets: Wi-Fi makes printing easy from anywhere in the house

The HP Laserjet Pro P1102W printer is good addition for anyone who wants to print anything from anywhere, anytime.

Home printer enthusiasts will love the small desktop unit, which measures 13.74 by 9.38 by 7.71 inches and can print up to 19 pages per minute depending on content.

Users have the choice of connecting this printer directly to a Mac or PC via USB 2.0 or my preferred choice of wireless (802.11b/g), which I used to print from all corners of my house.

Various types of paper and envelopes can be fed via an input slot with up to 10 sheets. The paper tray will hold up to 150 sheets.

The unit was easy to unpack and set up. It took just minutes to go from an unopened box to printing, and the printer performs solidly.

If your system doesn't load the necessary print drives on its own with the HP Smart Install, just use the included software disc.

It's always a good idea to check the company website to ensure you're getting the latest version.
