Seriously, how easy would it be able t  replace the "on/off
switch" with a
Homevision-controlled "on/off switch".

I was thinking of putting one by the back door, but only having it turned
on
when the house goes int  "secure mode"???

What do people think. I would guess that a burglar might be a bit surprised
by being drenched!

There is a supplier (according t  the web site) near Lutterworth... I am
just debating whether t  g  the wet moggy route or the ultrasonic route...
I
am tempted t  say that the wet moggy aligns with my sense of justice
(Claymore mines are also appealing, but might annoy the neighbours).
