Project: Security - Ring Home Alarm - Upcoming

Hello All,

 First, thank you for supporting me and following my blog where I support DIY. There are so many things out there that we can do it our self rather than hiring a contractor.

 Being said that, upcoming project is on enhancing the security of my house. I currently have Salomin’s Home Alarm System (NAPCO) Brand. So I decided to gut that out and install ring home alarm. 

 The Ring system will effortlessly integrate with my Ring Doorbell and will give me the power to monitor my house and arm/disarm remotely via Phone App.

 Lastly, budget wise it is also a wise decision, whereby Legacy system with the third party requires a phone line and as well active subscription which yields approx. $220 per annum.

 Ring comes out to $100/year if you first time user and sole security owner. Since I am existing Ring user for Doorbell and pay $30/year, it will cost me an additional $70/year totaling $100. This is still relatively cheap compared to other services.

 So, I will be doing this enhancement on the weekend after Thanksgiving. Of course, I want to enjoy my turkey.

 So Stay tune everyone. 

 Happy Thanksgiving to all of you.

 Jimmy

Review and How to Install XOSS G+ Bicycle Computer

Image
Hi All, Check out my new video covering the review and installation of XOSS G+ Bicycle Computer. XOSS G+ is a newly launched product by XOSS with price in mind while offering premium-like features. XOSS G+ offers GPS featuring Glonass and Galileo. Also, it offers Speed, Cadence, and heart rate, and much more. XOSS offers a single sensor that works as Cadence and Speed Sensor. If you put this sensor on the crank arm, then it acts as Cadence. However, if installed on the wheel hub, then it works as a Speed sensor. It uses the earth's magnetic field for calculations. This entire process doesn't take more than 5 minutes of your time. This means as long as you sign up with XOSS, and set up your computer before hooking up on your bike you'll be riding away within 5 mins.

How to Install or Replace a Door Lock

Image
Hi All, Check out my new video. Installing a household door lock can be a cumbersome for some and easy for others process. My video will explain and walk you through the needed tools and on how to install interior and mostly exterior door locks. Difficulty Level - Easy Tool Required - Flat Head Screw Driver - Philip Head Screw Driver - Impact Driver (optional) - Door Lock Knob I used a defiant brand lock inside. Both Defiant/Schlage are somewhat same. I feel Schlage is little superior in build quality, but both offer abundant warranty. I am not affiliated with Defiant or Schalge, they are the trademark of their own respective brands. Thank you, Jimmy
