This Full HD system is overall awesome!

OK so this is yet another system I purchased from TonTon Security and again I am very satisfied with its performance! It is one of the best in their medium line professional product. I install security systems and so far this one has been the easiest to set up.Pros and ConsPros:Initial setup is really easy. They use a wizard that completes very quickly, hassle free. They pair the cameras up with the NVR from the factory which saves me a lot of time, so you are not "discovering” cameras. One by one the cameras are quickly autoloaded once the internal network wizard is setup.TonTon uses this pre-paired format on other cameras of theirs that I have installed.The appearance and quality is rugged tough for outdoor installation. The included software is not hard to get familiar with.The cameras only need one cable running from them, the power adapters. You may choose to use wired ethernet but you do not have to. Then NVR system will create its own network and the cameras seamlessly connect to it. So the benefit here is that you do NOT have to pair it with your own house or business wifi. So your bandwidth is not being interfered with. This was a big plus in one of my installations. If you wish to manage/monitor the cameras remotely then of course you will want to pair it with your wifi in order to do that.The video is very sharp. You do get full HD quality. On my first install we pushed the video to several 4K monitors and were impressed with even the night vision view. It uses what is called IR Cut filtering to get sharp night vision. The PIR sensor works great! This is where the cameras use a sensor that checks the temperature of the moving object from several different angles; the result is a better sense of the camera knowing if motion detection is accidental outdoor object or real person.We installed a 2 TB inside this one just to have longer storage rotation time. It was very easy to upgrade the hard drive. Less than 5 minutes. Do remember to format the new drive if you do it. This is done from the menu screen in the software.My favorite features are the email alerts and the fact that each camera acts like a wifi repeater pushing the signal along to the next cameras around it. Result is a strong internal bandwidth if installed strategically.ConsNot many cons! One thing to note is that the Included weather covers for the cable may sometimes not be sufficient if you have a very wet/rainy install location, so use your electrical tape enough to make watertight connections. We just use PVC pipe tubing when it calls for such location installs.Overall this Is system is well worth the price. I would definitely purchase this again and recommend it. Will do a video review after the next purchase.
