Best camera for smart budget buyers :)

I'm never one to write a review this but this camera is 11/10 the pro's
no WiFi internet connection so no man in the middle attacks in home network
No BS monthly subscription for cloud storage
Because all footage is stored locally and none there is not Internet connection you can live free knowing that there is no peeping Tom watching your cameras
IR works well the ir LED's could be brighter but that's an easy fix with a ir light bar
The detection on the camera is to good it's amazing I have it set to low in day time and med in night time high will tell you if the air moves at all
Cross talk works extremely well shocking that not only is it clear but the speaker on the camera doesn't sound like complete garbald crap it's clean crisp and works well
The setup prosses is short and extremely easy pairing is a walk in the park everything is well documented and well thought out
The price is "high" but not recurring so will save you hundreds in just a few short years
Video is all stored locally on an SD card this is it's biggest pro as replacement sd cards are extremely cheap and you can have many takes 5 seconds to swap out
Cons the SD card that comes with it is in usable as it's way to small and would need to be wiped every few days if not a week I wouldn't know as I bought a 128gb SD card and that got us a Month and a half of recording if your not broke like me tho buying a 512 gb SanDisk SD card is not much money on Amazon and would get you close to a year of recordings buying 2 would give you easy hot swap storage
Would have preferred m.2 SSD storage tho I have no idea how expensive this would make the set up and for most users they might be scared to change an m.2 but throwing in a cheap 1tb m.2ssd would be way better than sd as it's far more reliable
The power cord is laughably short I have a very small house and it was to short for the shorter run however the power cord is a common cable so I just bought a extension for it male to female barrel plug
BIGGEST CON there is no info on witch barrel jack the camera uses anywhere I had to measure it myself and hope I got the right one I did but still please put this info in your parts list

Pretty good 4 stars night vision could be better

I would have given 5 stars.... But one camera goes out of range sometimes it comes back within a few secs. But still could be sacrificial footage one day. And the night vision isn't the greatest on the camera farthest away from the monitor, but the one closer to the monitor does pretty good. Doesn't record that long to be a 128 gb SD card about 12 days I think I'm still messing with it and learning it. All in all about 4 stars.
