EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn., Dec. 11 (UPI) -- A Minnesota company is marketing a product called FakeTV, which is designed to produce a TV-like light to deter potential burglars.

Hydreon Corp., based in Eden Prairie, said FakeTV is designed to emit light similar to that given off by a TV set so burglars looking at the windows of an empty home will think someone is inside watching the tube.

The product is available for $34.95 at FakeTV.com.
