i was at a building #19 today and i saw a glass tamper alarm for 5 bucks! being the creative person i am, i bought it to make into a tripwire. i gutted it and cut off the vibration sensor. then i soldered 2 of the connections together. now instead of the pin being a saftey when the pin is pulled the alarm goes off.

Awesome! What type of alarm are you talking about? I know of the ones where there is two magnets and when one is removed it goes off is that the kind your talking about? If you have digital camera I would strongly suggest you to take pictures of your creation.

no its not the magnet kind. bacisically it sticks to the glass and if it senses vibration it lets out a 120 decibel alarm. it had a pin as a saftey switch so that if the pin is removed the alarm is active. i modified it so that instead of the pin being a saftey and vibration setting it off, just pulling the pin makes you go deaf :P :P


and about the pix, ill try to post soon...... but ive been havin trouble with pics

Wouldn't it be harder to disarm/less noticable if you just glued the entire device to a lose floor-board?

Don't double post, crop your pictures so they don't take up so much bandwith and space, write informative alternative texts, have the interest in your idea to draw a picture worth posting, don't use a picture when it's faster to explain in words and the concept is simple enough that you don't need it, and learn how to spell point.

to put the tripwire to a fiecaracker, just take the wire from the speaker, and put both on a piece of steel wool. then, that will spark up. Now your imagination comes in.
