If you also use the GPS on your bike the Garmin Nuvi 500 is waterproof and has come down to your price range. If you don't care about waterproof they can be a lot less even with traffic, bluetooth, and more.
Eff that just use your phone's gps and get the directions via earbuds. Works great on the bike and you don't have any screen distracting you

Be careful, they'll likely be back. Probably teenagers looking for an easy score.

I fucking hate thieves too. Last night I heard someone poking around in the back yard, so I went downstairs to take a look. I see the shadow of the neighbour's teenage kid poking at the fence gate next door, so think nothing of it.

Ten minutes later I hear someone pounding at their back door and a rather loud conversation between another neighbour and the kid's mother. Apparently he had just ripped off her kids' bicycles, that they keep in the back yard.

Always nice to know there's a delinquent in the neighbourhood. The camera goes up as soon as I get the hardware.

Motion sensor, floodlight. Put the floodlight INSIDE your bedroom. Have gun ready to rock on the nightstand.

You know what to do next.

Ok, maybe blinding yourself with random false alarms all night isn't a good idea.

Sleep in the car?

Garmin doesn't have DARTH VADER.
