I have a builder friend that has experienced some thefts at new construction sites that aren't yet under roof. It's pretty common in the area unfortunately, especially the price of copper being what it is. They asked me if there was some way to monitor the site to provide both a deterrent and help provide any evidence after the fact. Of course there is no power out at these locations, so that is the biggest stumbling block I can think of. There would need to be a battery and some type of solar? charging mechanism, which starts to get both complicated and expensive. I know of the hunter cameras mentioned in this thread http://www.cocoontech.com/index.php?showtopic=6745 but I need something that is either always recording or triggered off motion, not at regular intervals.
So, anyone have any ideas how to best accomplish this? I was thinking of just using dummy cameras at highly visiable locations, but that only does so much.
