>>>From time to time I take a look remotely via my webcam and see if my equipment is still there<<<
Might be comforting check it's still there but doesn't do much to help insure it will be.
>>>grab a battery powered sawzall and get inside ANY observatory<<<
Also, a battery powered Dremel with a cutoff wheel will cut though the shackle of most locks in a minute or so. For molded plastic observatories, a good box knife will work great, and it's quiet too! I'm sure somebody will point out that you can't keep out a determined thief. The best you might do is deter casual thieves and delinquents. The good news with astro stuff is it's tough to get rid of so pros will look elsewhere.
