I made a Burglar Alarm for under 5 bucks, and items I found laying around the house! No soldering required. (soldering optional)

Great Video, I love the creativity! It's too bad that you can buy the sticky magnetic ones at the dollar store now though..
By jpvideo 1193761924 Reply Spam [+3] Moderate Up Moderate Down Remove6376939- i had
to buy one of those when i was living in las Vegas because people would walk in to your apartment and try to take stuff

could just dangle a few tin cans from a string on the door. would be much louder, much cheaper and much easier.
By beerwalla 1201072440 Reply Spam [+1] Moderate Up Moderate Down Remove6634077 - awesome idea
and really cheap with a great buzz, but the video went just a little too fast'

4272844 - novel idea
but by no means a viable option for home protection. my alarm clock is louder than that. shit, my phone vibrates louder than that.
By dongsy normus 1213760785 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Remove7729765- Modify
You can always modify this project by using a louder buzzer. You don't have to use the one that I used on the video. I wanted to use a louder buzzer, but radio shack (at the time) was out of the louder buzzers. So I settled for this buzzer instead. Thanks for watching my vid :)

Ok and how to I turn it on if I go outside?
By stefanello 1200089930 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Remove7168283- Dude, think about it.
The volume of the alarm is meant to alert you... while you're at home, not to alert the neighbors (or scare off the burgler)!

By vidal1986 1199248259 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveCool idea, though the alarm is not loud enough and the explanations scrolled by too fast.
By AgentEm 1198785262 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveI HAVE GOTTEN THESE THAT ARE TRIGGERS FOR MILITARY POP-UP FLARES ETC. GREAT WHEN YOU GOTTA BUNCH OF RETARDS THAT ALWAYS SEEM TO WANT YOUR STUFF, OR YOU.

Good thing it's simple. it seemed like you were in a hurry to do something else and rushed right through it. At least you can pause it.
By JumboDonut 1197038539 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removei made something similar earlier... it was made from my little sisters toys :P
... but the same principal = when the wire is pulled a spring is released witch makes the contact... so the result is a screeching peeping and colourful lights flashing with it... i was happy with it until she discoverded the lost toys and ruined it... by the way it was ment for her to no tresspass in my room :D
better than a lot of the fake crap on MC

By Czarek1 1194834816 Reply Spam [-1] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveVery creative, nice tutorial. But I wonder, how much would a real buzzer cost without the hassle of creating it?
In my country, I can get that kind of gadget for less than $3 inclusive of battery.

u r a genius thats all there is 2 it
By valermos 1194555168 Reply Spam [-1] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveDude, this setup is pretty much what mob was using back in the days.
But as a trigger rather than a buzzer.
They put it under the rat's car with the string and a magnet hooked to the ds door.
I'd get rid of it.
the possibilities!
1 cover a wall with these and scare the poo outta somone
2 catch a cheating husband!
what if the battery run out?
but its cool video
- but on a budget
you could set a few more of these up and make an intruder think twice about making any more noise than he/she already has!

Great idea....As for you dollar store chumps, this vid is a "do it YOURSELF"
By smarter1 1193877692 Reply Spam [-1] Moderate Up Moderate Down Remove5 stars! Awesome video. Very creative and easy.
By kjmo4 1193868232 Reply Spam [-1] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removeyou should of done a voice over or something but the words were going way too fast to read. so i didn't get any of the information.
and that thng isn't very loud at all!
not gonna stop a burgler.
they'll just rip it off the door and stomp it!
The other stuff u never paid for??... ohhhhh u stole em... ironic how ur making a burglar alarm.....

Actually my girlfriend had most of stuff in her desk drawer. I asked if I could use some of her items for my next project and she said "yes".

That is so cool... That's a great buzz... I would also put a mic to the buzzer to make it louder. lol =) 5 stars
