Good afternoon,
Just thought I'd share last weekend's CCTV installation.
I looked at CCTV months ago, and found loads of kits and some really high end stuff from CCTV Direct, however, I simply can't afford it so I decided to get a deal from Maplins. (With the understanding things may no last forever, but hopefully my financial situation changes until it does)
The Swann TruBlue 960H 1TB 9 Channel CCTV Kit with 4 Bullet Cameras deal from Maplins in my opinion and after setting it up is brilliant.
The camera are well build, easy to install and get a good picture day and night.
Coverage is also perfect for a 3 bed semi.
The DVR is small and has a large enough hard drive. The setup is easy (being a techy by day helps)
Software on laptop is brilliant, iPhone/iPad apps are also very good.
The real snag point I have is you get 4x 18m cables, It would be wiser to have 2 longer (2x 30m and 2x 15m). I had to buy 2x 10M extensions (from B&Q and maplins don't sell them!)
I also had to put a 25MM hole in the wall to get the cables and connectors through.
Really like the system, am impressed
