Im sad to say these do not work
Do not use these for security purposes. Im sad to say these do not work. The motion does not catch the movement in time to get the info you need on an event. Every time you look events, you will see the cameras trigger way too late to see anyone. I knew this was a problem and then of course, my store robbed. I used these for my coin laundry business which got robbed when no one was there and of the FIVE cameras I had installed everywhere, NOT ONE OF THEM turned on in time to catch the face from 5 different angles. They all triggered as he was passing with his head down and hat on. I was livid. Even when he opened the "secure" door, the camera looking right at whoever walks in did not trigger on time and he was able to turn his back to avoid a face view. On a different occasion, stools were stolen and even though I knew the time frame to look, NONE OF THEM caught the movement of the stools being picked up and walked out of the store. In the real event you need security footage to solve a problem, do not count on these to be helpful. You must get the ongoing recording that allows you to search by time or day with no pause in events. Call ADT and go with their system which is cloud, stores fro 7-14 days, continuous recording for specific time searches and has live view, it solves all these problems and I promise you when in need, the money is all worth it. I will keep one or two blinks for live view of non-important areas.
