Re: [AlpacaTalk] Re: Barn cameras and winter water

 

We have eight night vision cameras and a huge monitor for the house we never use because we have it hooked to the internet and can see it not only from any home computer but from any smartphone.  It was bought-installed by a young kid the local computer shop recommended - he drove all the way out here from LA (2.5 hours) and installed it himself and did a great job.  I recommend you check your smaller mom and pop computer repair stores first.  Before buying this one we looked at the ones that Fry's Electronics has and they had some pretty good deals, but you have to self-install and we aren't technically inclined. 
 
We love being able to check all eight cameras from David's phone - and it is a great way to advertise animals when you are just sitting around waiting in a doctor's office, etc.  My recommendation is to spend more and get the best night vision cameras you can afford - they are worth their weight in gold if you ever have an intruder.  Also, buy a larger box than you think you'll need because I can assure you, you will want to add more cameras later.  We started with four and now have eight.  You can even get separate speakers for your system to record sound.  I don't colic anymore when we go on vacation because I can see the house isn't on fire and that the animals are all safe.  Now I'm trying to get David to install one in the house so I can check on the cats too.  LOL

The whole system cost us about $800 and we have 8 night vision cameras and an in-house monitor and system. You do have to keep cleaning the lenses or the views get blurry so I recommend putting them either under an overhang and in a place that is easy to access.
