[AT] Spam> Tractor stuff and thieves, and your ideas

John,  I used a blinker that goes under a bulb, with a motion on off light. 
Someone goes in there and WAAAA WAAAA on and on until 2-3 minutes after the 
motion stop`s They are about the size of a quarter, then screw a plug in to 
the light.  Plug a small batt 12V charger in to that to power the horn`s.  I 
put all the stuff up high in the shop. And leave lot`s of stuff in the floor 
so hopefully they will fall and break there neck before you arrive with the 
12 ga pump. And we have another little unit that will beep once at one place 
and twice at the other shop to  alert us  that mossberg need`s to get busy 
quickly
