Best Camera - Amazing Night Vision

I bought these after trying the Xfinity home security system. Thank goodness they have a 30 day money back guarantee. Your night vision is useless! The Night Owl camera is amazing. I asked the Xfinity engineers to check out their videos and the owl, they loved it. Plus, the Night Owl camera system is cheaper and doesn't require a monthly fee! I am 62 years old and was able to build and install my own system. Just remember to "connect" your cameras to the NVR "before" removing and installing…

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Not as thick as other models

Don't buy, you will regret it.

these cameras are not as good as you think the app has limited features for video playback (stupid) this should be the most important feature in your app so you can see what is happening range is very bad. I have a store in an open area of 800 sf and the camera keeps freezing near the street because the range is very poor. So if you need 4 cameras side by side in an open space they're great, but if you put a wall in between! you will have problems. not worth the money

Pros
  • good thing
Cons
  • unreliable

Good product, bad customer service!

Good product, easy to install and set up. Warning, customer support is practically NON-existent, called for help but no one ever picked up the phone. Left a message 3 days ago and NEVER called me back! The cameras and hard drive work fine, but if you need help, you'll have to find out for yourself! Attention buyers, Amazon ships this product with the original packaging so everyone can see what you are buying. If you don't want your neighbors to know you're buying a CCTV system, DO NOT deliver…

Pros
  • Hands free operation
Cons
  • Insecure

very disappointed with video surveillance equipment

If you don't want to monitor the room where the DVR/NVR system and your router are located, the system is useless. The brochure says up to 300ft, I don't have more than 10. They included a range extender antenna with a set of four cameras, I can't hook up three of my four cameras without an antenna. When the cameras are paired, the video on my monitor is often interrupted. The installation process was time consuming, frustrating and ultimately unsuccessful after repeated calls to technical…

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Some minor things

False alarms like crazy on sunny days.

Sunny days are the worst for these cameras. I get maybe 10-15 false positives a day because of shadows crawling across the camera's field of view. There's nothing more annoying than hearing your phone turn off, seeing the Night Owl app notification, only to see you've got a fake trigger. again and again. Although this is a plus. Programming the cameras on the DVR was easy. The radio range of the cameras is ok. If you place the camera 40ft away from the DVR, you MUST use a booster antenna. The…

Works well with wireless video

I cannot rate this camera kit more than 3 stars. I wish I could, but let me explain. First, the best solution for any outdoor camera is a wired solution. If you live in a one story house and have access to the attic, buy a set of wired security cameras, either pay someone or go up to the attic and run cables from the camera to the recorder box. Once this is done everything will work. excellent and you will be very satisfied with the results. Other options: Wireless cameras or battery-powered…

Pros
  • Surveillance Kits
Cons
  • Doubt

So I tried another wireless surveillance camera before trying the night owl and unfortunately had to go through a lot of trouble. Removing the other kit and the sealant I used to install the new kit the problem I had with the previous kit was getting a decent signal from the backup camera I installed on the 2nd floor and the DVR is located at the front of the house on the 1st floor. . Everything is now set up and working great! I actually had a similar problem with this system as the rear…

  • Surveillance gear
