$70 a month is well worth it to be able to know what's going on at/in my shop 24/7, no matter where I am...I can even view a live feed of every room of my shop from my cellphone.
The peace of mind that my high-end customers get from me having that is worth the $70 alone...PLUS I can monitor my house while I'm at work.
It takes me under 4 minutes if I'm hauling ass/running red lights/etc to make it from my house to my shop...if I get an instant notification as soon as one of my alarms at the shop is triggered at 2AM, and I'm able to tear ass out the door and make it there before they leave and secure the area prior to the arrival of the authorities, it would be worth WELL more than $70...if someone were to bust in the window to my office at the shop, it would take them more than 5 minutes to be able to get into the actual shop area and get to anything of value, or even anything that they could attempt to steal. Unless my phone was off, the outcome would almost certainly be that they'd say "Fuck it" and leave, or that I'd catch them.
I expected better from you, B :-/
