Customer Ratings & Reviews

Definitely buy more batteries other wise you will be charging them often. But still worth it. The quality of the cameras is great.

The cameras worked gteat. Very clear recordings but it is the Night Owl app that doesn't work right and we needed to be able to monitor while away from the house. When you come back home, the app won't reconnect with your phone and have to completely reset the cameras (by taking them dow & putting them ack up) and the system. Same issue if your phone happens to shut off or restart due to a system update. Best Buy & Geek Squad were great, it's the products app that is not good.

Love that there wireless and comes with the NVR but honestly was losing connection constantly so I returned them

Hard time keeping the batteries charged and they won’t work with just having them plugged in. Not

the cameras and wnvr seems solid. but they stopped working after 2 days. i have 90 days to return so i figured id call in to night owl and give them another chance. after one tech having no idea and telling me id get a call back in an hour (saturday) didnt get called back until monday. i was at work and they cant help you if you arent at the system. told me to call back saturday. i did, got another person that had no idea and again said, wait for a call back... 4 days now, no call back. its undortunate because they met every need i was looking for in a security system, which not many systems do. so ill drive an hour one way to my closest best buy and try out reolink.

Love this camera it give clear view and very good to have around your house for safety

Cameras require battery recharging every couple of weeks. No integral lighting, and was defective out of the box.

I like the product as a whole. My only problem was that system only came with 8 rechargeable batteries. Its 4 cameras, but each camera requires 4 batteries. I had to hunt down the other 8 batteries for my camera system that cost 14.00 a piece

Cameras are awesome! Good clarity, tells what the camera is picking up (animal, vehicle, or just a motion). So easy to charge and change battery!

Price matches the quality. It a closed circuit system reducing the chances of being hacked but it doesn't have the highest video quality.

I love my night owl cameras they work perfect thanks

Not really what I was expecting from this brand takes a while to get focused and the part that you have to charge each wireless camera after the 3 day not really what I was expecting but really good function that it has but if you travel not really recommend it

They are great and easy to setup! Day and night vision is great.

like being to see 4 camera's at same time clear pictures

A useful product indeed, easy to install and operate

I've been using the Night Owl 1080pm Cameras+NVR for a 5-6 days now and everything about them is both more professional and cooler than other brand of cameras. What you need to know in advance though is: - cameras are battery only (no ability to do power/wire backup) - NVR requires ethernet (it seems to be wireless for Camera's not wireless internet) - external monitor very helpful for initial setup In the box you get the 4x cameras; 8 batteries (2 for each camera, more on this later); network cable; HDMI cable; wired mouse, USB C cable. I have to applaud Night Owl because everything you need is supplied. The USB C cable is to charge the cameras. Setup was easy. I downloaded the free Night Owl iOS app. There's a lot of two factor security, validates your email, requires a phone number that it validates, then you are ready for setup. You pair the NVR recorder first. It requires ethernet and it's easier if it's plugged into an external monitor or screen so you can see first hand what it's doing, then you pair the cameras. I had no issue pairing the NVR recorder but you should know the NVR system in this setup is for wireless cameras only, so you can't add wired cameras at a later date. Camera setup was easiesh. The cameras hold up to 4 batteries, but 2 as a minimum. You need to be ready to pair not long after you put the batteries in, so if you haven't setup your NVR recorder you need to reset the cameras. The cameras paired quickly and the setup in order of pairing e.g. 1st camera I paired became Camera 1 in the NVR/app, etc. Everything else is then about the cameras. You can connect to them via the app or via the NVR. I prefer the app and use the NVR just for storage. Camera quality is excellent at 1080p and is crisper than the cameras from that four letter R company. The inbuilt LED light is also better. In terms of battery life, I do have anxiety but I was getting 4-5 days of camera on the busiest side of my property (street). You can buy extra batteries, as the cameras take up to 4 but the batteries are non-standard/proprietary sized rechargeable. There is a LOT of smart in the cameras. Motion detection and auto light on/off. The cameras are also weather proof. Although I would make sure you install them somewhere easy to reach so when you have to charge them, you can remove, charge, replace them without needing a ladder. I'm giving the Night Owl 4 stars. Why? The quality is great. It offers a great (subscription free!) experience. It might be unfair, but this would be perfect if you could add wired cameras at a later date, or if NightOwl offered some sort of hybrid option for the cameras (wired with battery backup); or extra batteries in the box so you could hotswap batteries i.e. use, remove old, put in new, charge old while still using the camera. Otherwise you have to have a camera offline while charging. Without giving too much a way and this may help others, I use 3 cameras and keep 1 as the spare and rotate them through. So 1 camera is always charging at any time. Would I recommend to a friend? Yes.

This product has given me peace of mind. I love how I can interact with people at my door without me being home. I highly recommend this product.

Great for battery cameras the view is clarity wish they recorded full time

The APP that operates it wont connect to the DVR and the tech support is bots that just tell you to keep repeating the same failed things. They never answer customer support phone number. If you want to be run around this is the equipment for you. If you want something that works look elsewhere. I returned mine.

I don't like the fact that the outside cameras the lenses get foggy at night I'm going to try some Rain-X on the lenses
