Anyone can be the victim of a crime, but not everyone can afford to protect themselves from crime.To James Wonser, though, that didn't seem fair, and he saw a business opportunity.Wonser opened his Home Electronics Store nearly three years ago, and he's hoping his recent move will let more people have access to the home security equipment he stocks."With all the meth and the problems and everything else, there has to be a more affordable solution," he said.Wonser, 37, a Longview resident, has moved the Home Electronics Store to 2025 Washington Way, Suite 100, next to Keys Plus near the Triangle Mall. He launched the business about two and a half years ago on Vandercook Way, then moved to a bigger spot on Oregon Way for about three months. The store opened at its current location two months ago.Wonser offers alarm systems and cameras that can do everything from keep a steady eye on a dark corner to give a warning beep if an intruder is coming through the yard.He said he also does consultations to help customers determine what security system suits them best.The Home Electronics Store is an authorized T-Mobile cell phone outlet store, with all of T-Mobile's equipment and coverage plans available, Wonser added.The Home Electronics Store is open Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Appointments can be made after hours, Wonser said.
