Hello! Thank you for taking the time to write a review, we appreciate the feedback. We would greatly appreciate you speaking with your friends and family about your experience with Defender and your PhoenixM2 Non-WiFi. Plug-In Power Security System with 4 Cameras. Without you and our other customers, Defender would not be the name it is today!
My daughter bought this for me for a gift. It is nice but, only an SD card for recording. Why not a USB port to attach my 8 TB external hard drive that would constantly record even when I'm away. When you get a monitor like that please let me know. Thanks.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hello Rich, Thank you for your review. We appreciate your feedback and have passed this recommendation on to our Research and Development team as we are always looking to improve. Please note you can use up to a 128 GB SD card in the Phoenix monitor, this would provide you with approximately 1408 hours of recording. Thank you for choosing Defender to protect what matters most. Best Regards, Amanda M. | Defender Customer Experience Expert
Haven’t installed this one yet but already use one and it does a good job. Can’t keep the spider webs off of the cameras tho. Drives us nuts!

I am very please with this system. It took less than 5 minutes to remove from the box and install. The monitor is small enough to fit on my office desk without getting in the way and the picture is incredibly clear. Audio is very sensitive and a great feature.

It's a great little system for what is designed for. I've had several similar systems over the past 15 years, this one definitely has its pluses and simplifies the whole process. This one has no network connectivity to be concerned about and no battery to keep the display powered while moving to a different out let or in a short power outage (a minor bummer). However, having no battery is also a plus even though you lose some convenience, because I've had systems that when that battery goes out on the display the whole system shuts down even if plugged into an outlet. So then you have to go out on the web to find a replacement battery from other source and they aren't easy to find. When you need to get the recordings, you pop out the SD card and you've got them, no internet connection needed. So, knowing that the Defender Phoenix system is not battery powered is reassuring since I won't have to worry about a dead battery killing the whole system down the line. And knowing it is not networked online keeps things very simple. Also, the VGA resolution is good because it allows you to store alot more recordings in the same space on the disk, even though sometimes I'd like to have 1080p just for kicks. So just be sure to read and confirm this system has what you need, and you'll be very happy like me! If you want more bells and whistles, then make sure you find one that lists all your wishes before you buy.
