1. Nike+ SportWatch GPS


Runners of all levels who want an accurate assessment of their runs should check out the Nike+ Sportwatch GPS. It’s accurate, and with a little software-side tweaking, it could be the perfect scoring system for your daily exercise routine.


2 . Logitech Alert Security System


The Logitech Alert Security System uses high-quality cameras to record and send video to a computer via ordinary electrical wiring. This refined system keeps watch over your stuff in HD quality, giving you clear video of anyone who wants to trespass on your property, day or night. You can install the system yourself, but to fully cover an average-sized house will cost you in excess of $1,000.

Outdoor Camera Mounted

The mounting hardware is solidly built as well.

Bottom of Outdoor Camera

There's a mic to capture audio, too, but you can disable that.

Outdoor Interface

The interface is mounted on a wall, then plugged into an outlet. Here I've taken off its weatherproof door to install the thin electrical wire that goes t o the camera.
