I'd feel like my house was totally exposed now if not for the fire/smoke/CO/flood sensors. They are more important than the burglary sensors IMO.

That's a good point, I was considering one of those systems because you can currently get the 5 piece basic system with a free echo dot for 189 (normally 269). It just seemed like it would require some actual effort to set up and figure out, so I didn't pull the trigger (also my current exterior camera system is pretty beefy). But honestly just for the sensors, it might be worth it.

Well, the idea is that you put it in a different room from your google home. Like, say, by the bed. It functions well as a smart alarm clock. You can also play amazon prime video on it if you wanted to do that for some reason, or do video calls to anyone you happen to know who has a prime device. Just make sure you turn off drop-in video.
Hell, get it and if you don't want it I'll give you $20 for it.
