Peq Watchdog's bark is bigger than its bite (pictures)

Included in the Peq Watchdog kit is one Door & Window sensor, a Wi-Fi camera, and a networking hub. What you don't get is an all-purpose motion sensor, a way to record sound or even an alarm.

The Peq Hub is essentially a custom networking router to handle Peq-approved smart-home devices.

The Peq Door & Window sensor consists of two units which know when entryways in your house open and close.

You can add an optional motion sensor to the Peq system for $45.

Peq also sells a snazzy-looking smart thermostat for $130. It features slick touchscreen controls, Wi-Fi connection, and attractive LEDs.

Adding devices to the Peq system is easy thanks to plenty of video tutorials and walk-through wizards.

Keep an eye on many sensors in your home through the Peq interface. Examples of devices you can add are thermostats, cameras, motion and door/window sensors, plus lamps and small appliances.
