Thanks Chris, that is very informative and useful.
Last year I bought this simple inexpensive unit before I left the house for a week or so.

It works great, and luckily I did not have any problems, but it works fine.
You can have it call out to 3 different cell phone #'s.
I simulated a test and it works great.

I also plan on getting this one.

My Brother-in-Law has this and claims it is great.
It is wireless and you can communicate with your Smart Phone to see what is happening.
I plan on getting this next Winter when I leave for a Month to Florida or somewhere. :wink:

Technology is fascinating. :wink:
