A video surveillance system can be expensive, considering all of the necessary hardware and devices. The cost of the cameras, DVR, data cables, and monitor can add up quickly. An excellent way to compliment an existing CCTV DVR system is to use dummy security cameras. These are replica devices which look identical to real CCTV cameras. All a homeowner needs to do is mount a dummy security camera just like a regular security camera. These dummy cameras are powered by regular alkaline batteries, which simulate realistic effects such as flashing LED lights and can even move the camera. Best of all, a dummy camera costs dozens of times less than a standard CCTV camera.
