People easily see our TV on or off when driving by, and was thinking about how to add a bit of a more realistic some is at home effect. .

not expecting much but worth a try
Just curious, why? Are you really that concerned about a home break in? The Villages is a very safe place. I worry way more about stuff like lightning strikes, an A/C failure during the summer, a bursted water pipe or irrigation line, or hurricane damage. Someone breaking into our home isn’t even on my radar of concerns. Then again, besides our golf carts, clubs, e bikes, and vintage grandmother clock, there really isn’t anything in our home that I would particularly miss if stolen.
