Make your own Trip Wire

This is an inexpensive home security system that you can make in under a half hour. It works using two walkie talkies, a fishing line, a couple of zip ties, and a vulnerable spot where unwanted intruders may walk through. When the fishing line is pulled, it switches the walkie talkie on which starts to ring an alarm sound. This alarm sound was already installed on the walkie talkie, so I simply kept it on. This walkie talkie sends the alarm across a specific channel to its sister walkie talkie, which will then alert you. A great advantage with this is that you could have multiple walkie talkies around your house hooked up to the same channel, allowing you to hear the alarm sound anywhere in your house. Thanks for watching!
