Vandals cannot hide

My daughters car was vandalized while parked next to the garage recently. The helpless feeling of not knowing who did it was overwhelming. So, after much research I decided on this system as it seemed to offer the best viewing and recording for the money. Setup and navigation were pretty straight forward. Pretty much a plug and play system. The only exception being the work needed to conceal the cables under vinyl siding and through the walls into the house.
I like the fact that that the cameras not only see well, but are a little larger and noticeable on the house. I feel this is a nice deterrent feature.
I let the system run all 4 cameras 24/7 at the highest resolution setting and the record time before it starts to overwrite is about 40 or so days.
When I get up in the morning and water the tomato plants out back and the flowers out front, I check for any signs of theft or property damage. If I find any I look at the recording to see how it happened. So far nothing has happened.
If the system continues to operate this well for a long time I will be very satisfied. Just installing it seems to have already stopped interlopers from coming onto my property.
The only thing I am not excited about is that the recording play back is slightly less clear than the live viewing mode. But, when your compressing that much image data you're going to loose a little clarity. Still a good system for the money.

VANDALS CANNOT HIDE IN EVEN MORE CORNERS

This is an updated review as I just upgraded from a 4 channel system (model 21158), to an 8 channel system (model 21160) to cover the blind spots in my back yard. My daughters car was vandalized while parked next to the garage recently. The helpless feeling of not knowing who did it was overwhelming. So, after much research I decided on this system as it seemed to offer the best viewing and recording for the money. Setup and navigation were fairly easy. Pretty much a plug and play system. The only exception being the work needed to conceal the cables under vinyl siding and through the walls into the house. I like the fact that that the cameras not only see well, but are a little larger and noticeable on the house. I feel this is a nice deterrent feature. I let the system run all 8 cameras 24/7 at the highest resolution setting. When I get up in the morning and water the tomato plants out back and the flowers out front, I check for any signs of theft or property damage. If I ever find any I look at the recording to see how it happened. After being in service for less than a week, we've already caught another pair of vandals running through my back yard and then moving between the houses and destroying my neighbors lawn furniture. If the system continues to operate this well for a long time I will be very satisfied. Just installing it seems to have already decreased the flow of interlopers from coming onto my property. The only thing I am not excited about is that the recording play back is slightly less clear than the live viewing mode. But, when your compressing that much image data you're going to loose a little clarity. Still a good system for the money.
