These cameras are a pretty good setup and the 2T storage is perfect. Only down side is it comes with 6 cameras rather than 8 like it's 2k 1t counter part. This product is also easy to use after you set it up. There is an app that is subscribtion free that allows you to monitor your cameras and watch what the DVR has stored and even download it. All of this also works away from home so no need to be near the DVR you just need an internet connection.

False advertisement

I bought this system because it says on the box and in the specifications that it works with google home assistant. It will not connect to google home. I paid almost $500 for this and paid the installers $800 to install all 6 cameras. I don't have money like that. Now I'm stuck with something I don't want because of false advertisement. I also spent another $65 on a nest hud with google assistant. Money wasted. You people should be ashame of yourselves. Now I have to pay another $800 to have it removed andcsend it back.
I guess I should stuck ring and alexa.

Hard to Decipher Instructions

Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
Very confusing instructions from Night Owl & the You Tube videos are ancient & hard to muddle through. I used the existing wires with limited success. Two of the circuits are in full color at night, the other 6 aren't, but they work. Probably fewer hassles if you put in the whole system from scratch, but the kicker is needing an ethernet hookup. The older system was better. Typical American made product...very little support!!!

I preciously owned the wireless Night Owl cameras which were ok. But I wanted a wired version to help that would allow better connectivity. The new cameras are just what I needed. Once I routed the wires, the cameras were easy to connect. The cameras work really well. Best of all, due to Night Owl having its own hardrive, there is no monthly video storage fee.

I purchased this 4K night owl system to replace my previous 2K Swan system. Very impressed with video quality. And nighttime quality is borderline amazing. My only complaint is when reviewing recorded footage you can only view one camera at a time. Shawn system would let me see four cameras at one time synchronized
