Living in a vehicle the last few years has helped me save & keep all the money I would’ve otherwise paid to a landlord. So I can afford a security system now, and urgently need one because people are starting to catch onto my patterns and hover around my vehicle like vultures. Please tell me the best security system you know of. I am not savvy with electronics and gadgets, and I never will be. So I need someone to tell me.

I’m thinking of a fuel kill switch or battery kill switch or whatever that thing is;

I’m thinking of camera system that I can monitor with my smartphone from wherever I am, etc

I’m thinking keeping several air tags all around my vehicle, in pockets of clothing, and in bags, and under my mattress (can I use Apple air tags if I don’t own any apple devices??, I run on Samsung and Lenovo and Linux);

Please tell me where to get these things, what the best brands are of fuel/battery kill switches, camera monitoring system

We’re not homeless, we’re houseless! By choice or by circumstance we are living in our vehicles. Don’t worry about us – it can be a very good life.

Anything that affects us as vehicle-dwellers is probably on topic.

rules of engagement

  • be civil
  • use descriptive thread titles. Pro tip: “Help” or “Question” are not descriptive titles.
  • old-timers: assume people are different and have different needs, preferences, budgets, and use cases
  • newbies: demonstrate effort and willingness to learn; you’ll need it on the road anyhow. Links have been added below to help get you started. When asking question state your “use case” (what you are trying to accomplish); we are terrible guessers.
  • tire-kickers: yes, we’ve heard that “in a van down by the river” joke. It was hi-larious in 1993.
