SimpliSafe Memorial Day Sale: 20% off home security (and a free SimpliCam!)

Add as a preferred source on Google

If you’ve been shopping for a do-it-yourself home security system, SimpliSafe’s Memorial Day sales may have what you’re looking for. From now through May 31, SimpliSafe is offering 20% off its full line of security systems and components. In addition, SimpliSafe will throw in a free SimpliCam home security camera (usually $99) for free with all orders. Home security camera deals are popular for smart homes and with DIY home security systems, and you won’t find a better deal than a free SimpliCam.

You can configure your security system by piecing together SimpliSafe components. It’s even smarter and a better bargain if you choose one of the company’s pre-configured systems. When you buy a pre-built system, you’ll have what you need when you’re ready to install it. You can save yourself the frustration that happens when you forget to buy or didn’t realize you needed a key component. Pre-configured systems also save money because manufacturers save when customers buy multiple components and can pass the savings on. We’ve listed SimpliSafe’s Memorial Day Sale pre-configured systems below in order of price. SimpliSafe configured each system for a specific type of application, but you can add other SimpliSafe components later if your needs change.

Remember Samsung’s Ballie home robot? It may finally be inching closer to reality
Leaked app wireframes give the strongest hint yet that Samsung's Ballie home robot, first shown at CES 2020, might still be headed toward an actual release.

Samsung's rolling home robot has been the industry's longest-running "will it ever actually ship" joke, and I'll admit I'd mostly given up on it. Now, there's finally a glimmer of hope.

Samsung first unveiled Ballie as a concept at CES 2020. Then, it showed it as a significantly upgraded version four years later. However, the company never confirmed a release date or committed to releasing it at all.

The FCC has already made it much harder for foreign drone makers such as DJI to bring new products into the US. Now, the same crackdown is reaching a machine far more likely to be moving around your living room.

The US government recently added foreign-made advanced robotic devices to the FCC’s Covered List. The announcement appeared focused on humanoids, robot dogs, and industrial machines, but an FCC spokesperson has confirmed to The Verge that robot vacuum cleaners are covered too.
