Review on WALI Security Flashing Warning SD 4 by Justin Sherman

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Satisfies a Need

Firstly, 3 out of 4 devices had scratches on the case or the transparent part of the dome when unpacked. They didn't look like they had been handled long before packaging. I decided to hang one outside anyway to see if that would make a difference. I followed the advice of some of the other reviewers here that it doesn't require batteries or a flashing red LED. Think about it, if you've ever seen these devices live, you won't see a camera or a flashing red light. I decided to point the camera away from where I expected the viewer to be. There are no scratches visible from the bottom and it is not possible to tell in which direction the camera is looking. I have three of these installed and just need a taller ladder to complete the perimeter for the fourth. I didn't find it necessary to cut and attach a dummy coaxial cable. If you hang them under a soft or false ceiling I assume it will hide all the cords anyway. As you can see from the picture I think the camera looks authentic and that would put me off as they look a bit menacing as they are. It comes with stickers that say 24 hour video recording. I stuck them next to my security company's stickers and they look great. Of course, to be really safe, you need a doorbell camera and possibly an additional indoor camera from a security company. Hello, I am satisfied with this purchase.

Pros
