This is defintely a good solution for me living in a more of a rural forest area as some of the areas where I would want camera's to monitor before these could have required a lot of digging to get wires, or battery packs for cameras that would neede to be recharged regularly and swapped which is a chore in itself. THese camera's however address this issue, since my house faces the sun so it is perfect to setup and not have to worry about charge (at least in the summer). They provide the additional coveraqge I've been lacking and have been fun to plug into into the TV and play watch the wildlife with the kids on the main TV as a change to the constant cartoons.
The range is great, esp. since where the base station is located comparted the cameras is a good couple hundred feet from each other through the house and walls of said house.
Picture is clear and looks great on the TV. Looking at the cameras on my computer hasn't been an issue and I found setup to be a breeze. I'm just happy I know have closed a coverage gap, can watch wildelife and not have to worry about swapping batteries while getting amazing 4K Pictures. Just what I was looking for and needed.
I would recommend this to a friend

As the title says, the video image quality is really good because they are 4K Cameras after all; however, the solar panels built into the cameras themselves is absolutely not great at all. I placed the Swann MaxRanger4K cameras in the exact same spot I had a wire-free competitor brands 1080p cameras and the external solar panels for those 1080p cameras. The competitor cameras stayed charged up with no problem with the external solar panels. However, when I installed these Swann MaxRanger4K cameras the built-in solar panels would NOT keep the cameras charged up during the day. This included when the sun was directly hitting the cameras they were not charging. So, I hooked up my external solar panels to the cameras and the charging was better but was still hit and miss. However, the cameras now stay at 100% fully charged during the day and only drain throughout the night.
The quality of the built-in solar panels is really disheartening because everything else about the system is absolutely amazing. The 4K video, the detection notifications, etc all work really well!
Would I recommend this product to a family member or a friend? Sure but only if I also told them to buy external solar panels and double mounts in order to mount both of the items on the same base. In it's current form, with the current built-in solar panels this system just isn't ready for the big time.
