Digital wireless

easy setup. limited ability to locate around house due to power outlet requirements. Rechargeable Li-Ion battery operated would work better.

Good System for the money cruncher

Bought this system to replace my X10 Cam system. I needed an upto date system with nightvision and DVR recording as my X10 system did not have either quality with out being updated. The DVR setup, and camera setup are very easy and quick to get up and running. NightVision works great in total darkeness. It actually looks like I have it lit up outside. The clarity of the camera falls a little short. If you know the person, you will have no problems identifying them, however, I do not think the cameras are sufficiant to identify a complete stranger. From what I understand, you really have to spend some bucks to get digital cameras that clear. PROS:easy to setup, great nightvision,quality product,price. CONS: Image detail is limited, Motion detects to many false alarms even at minimum sensativity, add on cameras are a bit pricey for the lack of image detail.
