My shed was broken into last night and two bikes taken.

Thief was caught on neighbours CCTV over a period of two hours coming and going so it took him a while to get what he wanted but I was asleep and oblivious to want was going on.

So I need some recommendations for alarms and CCTV but they need to be battery powered as shed doesn't have power. An alarm that will sound in the house or alert me via my phone would be good.

I fitted a Ring Alarm and added a sensor to my shed.
Really happy with it once someone on here helped me fine tune it.

Not sure if this would power an alarm or camera, but I've recently stuck one of these on our shed.

15W Off-Grid Solar Lighting System with 4 LED Lights, Solar Panel, Battery and Cables - Complete Solar Lighting Kit https://amzn.eu/d/3FOcCBs

Runs four lights and has a USB socket as well. Might add some flexibility to your options.

I've got a solar panel, car battery and charge controller set-up in my shed running the lights but I'm not sure how easy it would be to run a camera and alarm from it🤔
