Security

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

I've harboured some crazy security ideas for some time.

1. Theremin. that old Si-Fi music produced when you wave your hands. Driven by capacitance. If a body came near a window/screen weird sounds are produced. Nobody likes ghosts. Easy to make from a Morse Code circuit. or IC-555.

2. Mini tesla coil. From bug zapper, neon transformer, plasma ball, camera flash, or electric fence. Triggered by motion sensor or mini switch.

My own experience was when I heard the rear door knob been turned at 2 a.m. When I looked I saw the door to my garage being closed, I found that a deer rifle worked to keep the perp holed up until the cops arrived. 5 large guys helped him down to the ground ... hard. I told 9-1-1 not to shoot the guy wearing a white bathrobe with a rifle.

p.s.: I would build a "potato" gun that shoots full club soda cans.

Some times it's just to hard to resist. So Five Oh took off the white bath robe with a rifle...

20 yrs ago city cops were polite and help full. 10 yrs ago they took/stole the rifle, bastards.
