    Seems like they perform really well during the day. How are they at night? Mind linking the models you use?

    Definitely thought about that. Solid advice, I bought 1,000 ft of solid copper CAT6, ethernet connectors, and a crimping tool to start. I plan on laying out cables at first then if everything works for placement etc I'll fish the cables trough the walls. I already have a fishing stuff as I've...

    Ah yea, I see. I was looking at this one: https://www.dahuasecurity.com/products/All-Products/PTZ-Cameras/WizMind-Series/SD8A8C/4MP/SD8C448PA1-HNF Then I saw the $2,500 price tag and it would be hard to justify that kind of a camera for a simple home survalience system. Although, I love the...

    Could you link these for purchase? I'd be interested in comparing your exact camera to what I have been looking at. The more I look at the higher end cameras the more I like them.

    Ah, got ya. I'll get diagrams together when I get home on Wednesday and we can go over stuff. I'm out of town at the moment and can't take measurements and measure saturation, lighting, etc.

    Very true, Hmmm.... these would be good for covering corners of the house outside wide angles right? Would they be any good inside?

    Awesome! Thank you! The 6pack is not sold out thought for the 16P... and if I got the 6 pack I could get a nice start, but I would have to drop the NTZ. Meh, choices choices. Although, I could probably get the NTZ next paycheck if I got the 6 cams and 16p now. Hmmmmmmmmm..... Hey the best thing...

    What do you think about these? https://empiretech01.com/products/empiretech-4mp-25x-starlight-ir-network-ptz-camera-ptz5a4m-25x?_pos=1&_sid=fc8fe90e3&_ss=r Since I already havea working wide angle system, I was thinking buying 1 of these and the NVR would be a good idea. Heck yes! That is...

    I'm tempted to just buy the box and 1 of the $1,600 cameras. Nah, I won't do that. I will look into starting out with the box and 1 camera, and then when ever I have the funds I will add another $500+ camera. Should be able to get a few up and running by the end of the year. Just having 24/7...

    Yep, I am aware they are hardwire and have some experience with fishing cables through the walls, so I will make placements that give me this ability. I added the NVR from empire tech to the cart, the T54IR-ZE cameras also look at what I want. I will probably just start with a few of those and...

    Yep, no new information here and I think that means I'm ready to buy something. A lot of people in this thread have linked me things, do you share commission off referals or is it the first referal link I click on gets the commision? The camera you linked would need to be hard wired to a box...
