    Good for camera in the house, specially for low budget..rather than expensive security with monthly maintenance fee.

    They work great and you can see clearly. Sometimes a delay on notifications. Also charge life doesn’t last as long as hoped, but I don’t have the satellite portion.

    We purchased this system as added security around the perimeter of our house. It does a great job of letting us know when deliveries arrive and/or other vehicles come onto our property. Cameras activate by motion and we receive an alert on our phones along with recording of what triggered cameras.

    They are good cameras with a great picture. The only downfall is they don’t stay charged long. I have the wireless ones and we are continuously charging them every week.

    These are excellent cameras for the price! The only downside other than needing a subscription is the battery life. If you live in a warm area it’s not problem but during the winter I’m charging far too frequently. Added a solar panel to the high traffic camera and that fixed the issue for that one. They do pick up on nonsensical movement like the sun moving across the sky and the shadows changing on the ground or even grass blowing in the wind.
