Protect your laptop bag and yourself when travelling
Posted by DavidM in | 21 April 2011
Recent research shows the average commuter carries £3,800 of gadgets and it's likely to be much more when travelling abroad for business or pleasure. So the security of your belongings and yourself is becoming increasingly important, but until now hasn't been available at a reasonable price.
Doberman Security, based in Los Angeles, are security specialists who have developed a range of personal security alarms at sensible prices. Three of these offer the perfect protection for the business or holiday traveller.
The Doberman Briefcase and Laptop Bag Alarm attaches easily to your bag and once it's set will alert you if anyone moves it. The alarm sounds at 100db which is more than enough to hear in all but the loudest nightclubs.
This protects you not only if you have to leave your bag for a moment (to get another latte?) but also prevents distraction thefts in restaurants and bars when your bag is beside you. It's also ideal for sales people or engineers who leave their laptop bags unattended when on customer or site visits.
Many people stop and use their laptop while out and about - whether at Starbucks or a decent coffee house! Once your laptop is outside the bag, the Doberman Laptop Defender Alarm offers protection. It adheres to your laptop and when set it detects if your laptop is moved and the 100db alarm will sound. It cleverly charges via USB from your computer so never needs batteries.
Finally, security when staying away from home is important, with many laptops and bags stolen from hotel rooms. The Doberman Traveller Defence Alarm is easily fitted to almost any door and allows you to sleep soundly knowing that if someone tries to enter the room the 95db alarm will wake you - when I tried this during the day the alarm still made me jump!
Just hang the Defence Alarm on the door handle, slip the contacts between the door and sill, and anyone trying to open the door will release the sensors and set off the alarm.
With these alarms costing from £10 it's no longer too expensive to protect yourself and your belongings when out and about.
