A couple years ago, my son gave us (5)  “Eufy” security cameras for Christmas. We contacted an electrician to install them around our home. Bestbuy sells them if we decide to buy more. I have an app on my cell phone so I can view and get notifications from the security cameras.

A couple weeks ago, we discovered a water leak (sprinkler valves) and we fixed it. Or I hoped we did.

Back to the “Eufy” security cameras, they are wireless, and we pay no monthly service fees. Besides being security cameras, they have “amazing audio” features.

This past Christmas, we were spending Christmas day with my wife’s family in Mexico. I was getting notifications when someone was near our home. From one of my cameras near the front of our home, I could hear a dog barking (our dogs were with us) and I could hear “running water.” The sound of running water was very clear. I almost had a “melt-down.” My worst fear, we did not fix the water leak!”

We came home the next afternoon, and immediately I checked if the sprinkler valves were leaking again, they were not leaking. The neighbors told me it rained in our neighborhood on Christmas day. I was very happy the “running water” sound was rain, not a water leak.
