An electrical outlet is connected in a parallel circuit to the compressor unit of a standard household refrigerator. A lamp can be connected to the outlet and will thus provide random lighting in the house in accordance with the on-off cycle of the refrigerator refrigeration unit thus giving the appearance that there is activity within the house to discourage burglars or the like.

A randomly activated electrical power supply means to which various electrical appliances, such as radios, televisions, lamps, etc., may be conveniently attached so as to be randomly activated at the same time said electrical power supply means is activated, thereby to give the illusion of a dwelling being occupied while its inhabitants are away, thus to dissuade burglars and other people from gaining unauthorized entry thereinto, said randomly activated electrical power supply means comprising: refrigeration means having a refrigerator storage section, said refrigeration means including an electrically powered compressor means for supplying refrigerant to said refrigerated storage section so as to maintain a desired temperature therein; thermostat means operably associated with said refrigeration means and being selectively operable to sense a temperature of said refrigerated storage section, said thermostat means further being operable to permit a supplying of operating electrical power to said compressor means when a sensed temperature of said refrigerated storage section rises above said desired temperature, said thermostat means being in series electrical communication with said compressor means so as to selectively control said supplying of said operating electrical power thereto; and electrical outlet means in parallel electrical communication with said compressor means so as to be concurrently provided with said operating electrical power when said compressor means is provided with said operating electrical power and having no operating electrical power provided thereto when said compressor means is not provided with operating electrical power, said operating electrical power supplied to said electrical outlet means being of a random nature inasmuch as such operating electrical power is supplied to said compressor means as a function of unpredictable temperature variations within said refrigerated storage section, thereby to randomly supply operating electrical power to said electrical appliances, such as said radios, televisions, lamps, and the like, which are selectively electrically connected to said electrical outlet means, said electrical outlet means being disposed on an exterior surface of said refrigeration means and facing outwardly from an outside wall of said refrigeration means so as to be accessible to exteriorly positioned electrical appliances.
