Since Prime Day is nearly here and the best Prime Day deals have already started, at least in many cases, we decided to check out what security packages were out there and discounted. We found this Ring kit, one of the best home security kits, brought down to just $120. That’s an $80 drop from the $200 you’d usually have to pay, and the only catch is that you have to be a Prime member. Tap the button immediately below to see the kit for yourself, or keep reading to learn more about what is included and the best way to become a Prime member for free.

Why you should buy the Ring Alarm 5-Piece Kit

This Ring Alarm 5-Piece Kit includes a base station, keypad, contact sensor for your door, motion detector, and a range extender to ensure you can build a Ring kit around your entire home. This equipment is likely enough to give you piece of mind for a small home and get you well on your way to better security for a larger or medium-sized home. Since this is a kit, not a locked in set, there is also room to expand your coverage as needed after you see how things work from here.

Unfortunately, to take advantage of this deal, you’ll have to be an Amazon Prime member. Luckily, becoming a member is super easy and now is a great time to do so since Prime Day starts in just a couple of days. If you’re new to Prime, you can become a member for free for 30 days with the Amazon Prime free trial. The free trial gives access to all of the Prime Day deals, Amazon music, the latest Amazon Prime Video shows and movies, and everything else a normal membership would give. As a result, if you’re interested in taking advantage of this deal, this is an excellent time to sign up for Amazon Prime.

If you’re now a Prime member and are ready to save on the Ring Alarm 5-Piece Kit, go ahead and tap the button below. There, you’ll see the full 5-piece kit being offered for just $120, which is $80 down from $200. Then, go check out more Ring deals to expand your kit, get the video doorbell, and more. If this isn’t for you, however, be sure to check out our collection of security camera deals and Ring alternatives for other ways to make your home secure.

Want better home security? Don’t miss these Reolink early Black Friday deals

Reolink Go PT Ultra with Solar Panel installed on roof

With a few things happening around my home, hurricanes, an uptick in crime, and a few other concerns, I recently decided to beef up my home security. After quite a bit of research, personally, I settled on a series of Reolink devices. Had I been smarter about it, I would have waited a few weeks. That's because a ton of Reolink early Black Friday deals have dropped and it's an excellent way to save a bunch of money. From wireless security cameras, for indoors and out, to smart doorbells, and an excellent smart home hub with local storage, there are a lot of options. Perhaps more exciting, however, is that there are also a lot of great home security deals. Let's not mince words and get into it, shall we?

Reolink Home Hub -- $85, was $100 15% off
Unfortunately, a lot of security cameras create storage concerns. If you're not storing the footage in the cloud where is it going? When will you run out of storage? Will you lose important recordings? None of that's a worry at all with Reolink's Home Hub. It's an all-in-one smart home management and storage center. Keep all your recordings offline and available via local storage, built into the hub. More importantly, it supports WiFi 6, incorporates an alarm, offers unparalleled security and privacy via AES128-bit encryption, and much more. You can connect up to eight cameras or devices, including a smart video doorbell to the Hub.

This 6-in-1 Ninja air fryer is 48% off for a limited time

The Ninja Foodi XL 2-Basket Air Fryer DZ550 with food that it cooked.

If you don't have an air fryer in your kitchen yet, here's an excellent offer that should make you finally go ahead with that purchase -- the Ninja Foodi XL 2-Basket Air Fryer at 48% off from Amazon, nearly halving its price from $250 to only $130. That's a pretty nice discount of $120 for such a helpful cooking device, but you're going to have to hurry in completing the transaction because this limited-time deal may disappear as soon as tomorrow.

Why you should buy the Ninja Foodi XL 2-Basket Air Fryer
For those who don't have an air fryer among their kitchen gadgets, you're missing out on the ability to cook fried food using little to no oil. In addition to air frying, the Ninja Foodi XL 2-Basket Air Fryer can also air broil roast, reheat, dehydrate, and bake, so it can replace multiple cooking devices to maximize space. It also comes with two 5-quart baskets with their own rapid heaters and cyclonic fans, and Ninja's DualZone technology enables Smart Finish for both baskets to complete cooking at the same time, and Match Cook that copies settings across the two baskets. With this feature, you'll be able to prepare a complete meal with side dishes in one go for the whole family.
