Review on Wireless Security Camera System With 8CH NVR, 8Pcs 1080P HD Cameras, P2P Connectivity, 3TB Hard Drive, And Indoor/Outdoor Use For Enhanced Home Security by Brian Graham

Getting all the bang for my bucks

PROS: I ordered this camera set of 8 cameras with a 3TB hard drive because people were starting to get stupid around where I live. First they open the doors to my basement. Then they went through my wife’s car when we forgot to lock it. Then my fire wood started walking on its own. It was time for me to put an end to the nonsense. This set of security cameras has enough memory to record, even without internet, for even I don’t know how long. It has stunning HD quality even in pitch darkness. You can set it to beep every time it detects motion and send you notifications. It records, if I remember correctly, a 30 second video on top of the continuous recording and saves it to your Esee app for review so that you don’t have to go back and pull it out of the day’s timeline.CONS: there is an Ethernet cord that is attached to each camera used for pairing with your Net Video Recorder (NVR) and security camera wireless extender is quite large. Because I’m installing these cameras outdoors and these cameras are powered by a dc plug I needed to drill holes from the oustide of my house to run the wires to the inside to plug into an indoor power source I needed to drill really big holes, about an inch and a half, in order to get the wires inside the house. I could’ve installed outdoor power sources but the additional costs was not worth it not to mention the amount of time and effort required to do so.The other thing is although these cameras have decent antennas and has really good range, I didn’t expect them to make it all the way out to my shed, let alone going through the thick walls of my house to get to the outside. Therefore, I had to purchase a security camera wireless extender. This is NOT the same as a WiFi extender which I originally purchased because that was what I thought was needed. The extender is not the one that is sold by the company but I confirmed with them that it is compatible with their cameras. The pairing process can be a bit confusing but their tech support is rather surprisingly good. I had to contact them multiple times and they always got back to me the next day. One more thing is this set does not support any voice capabilities. So you can see but not hear or talk to people through the cameras.Conclusion: I went with this set after reading many reviews on many different security cameras and I decided to go with the set with the most positive reviews and I was not disappointed. With this set I don’t have to pay the additional fees per month of paying companies to access my recordings made on my property. I am now able to see everything, even at night, around my house from every angle with 8 cameras. I can keep a constant eye on my kids playing oust side my house at all times without having to step out the door.I had I had a bit of issues with the technical stuff such as changing the camera channel, operating the notifications, and setting up the wireless extender but, as stated earlier, their tech support was really good. I did not have to spend hours on the phone with them. Each time Neal called me back. I think the longest session I had was about 15 minutes when I was voicing my suggestion about making the Ethernet plug smaller so that people wouldn’t have to drill such big holes into their homes. Neal was very polite and understanding of what I was saying and promised to forward my concern to their development team. He made sure that my many issues were addressed. I have no complaints as all my issues were resolved after reaching out to him. I need to take this moment to give a special thanks to Neal for going above and beyond because there was no way I was going to figure those things out by myself.Now that all my cameras are in place. I want to see what kind of nonsense is going to take place without my knowledge.
