A clever security camera perhaps?

Royal, Mine use D cells, I've been using them for about 6 months on the first set of batteries. Pretty cheap insurance, and while they may not use pictures in prosecution, they can damn sure use license numbers to find the slugs. Also its pretty hard to fence items engraved with names and identity codes, which describes EVERYTHING in the house, tight down to screw drivers and individual sockets, not to mention all electronics.
And mdd since you don't care if you get ripped of, why not post your address so we can send the slugs your way.
