    Costco now starts selling Lorex 4K+ NVR system for $299.99

    Today, I found out that Costco has Larex 4-cam NVR system for $300. It's been quite a while since the last time I saw a 4-cam NVR system below $400, like 4 years. Are the manufacturers dropping the price, or this is just a subpar system that Lorex just made specifically for Costco? Costco...

    Lorex Fusion Dahua Compatability

    Hello all, I am trying to figure out if the Lorex N864A64B NVR is made by Dahua and if the Dahua/Empiretech cameras are compatible with it. I cannot find info on this specific NVR but it does look like the Dahua cameras work with other Lorex fusion NVRs
