Need help finding outdoor home security cameras?




tnafan19


I prefer them to be:

1. Night Vision
2. Weatherproof
3. Wireless
4. Dome shaped
5. Outdoor (as mentioned above)

I also want a $200 price limit for each camera, but I realize that is probably near impossible for these characteristics. If there is a camera that is similar to these characteristics around the $200 price range please let me know. Thank you in advance



Answer
"Wireless" = video signal only.

The camera still needs a wire for power or a battery that gets recharged with a solar panel for overnight and very cloudy day use. When you have this solved, let us know and we can work through the camera selection. For $200 you will not find much. While we're here, where will the video be recorded? If it is an IP network based camera, you'll need a dedicated computer that does nothing but store the video. If it is an analog camera, then a dedicated network attached DVR. This is another expense that needs to be considered in your budget. In both cases, if the power goes out, if there is a requirement for the computer or the DVR (and the network) to remain working, a battery back up is needed. How much you spend on this will determine how long the systems stays up. You can easily spend $200 just on this back up battery for a few minutes of back up.

Swann and Lorex have good systems for residential installations. Pelco makes decent commercial gear. Battery back up systems from APS, CyberPower and several others will work. This small solar panel

can recharge a small battery

A metal enclosure for the battery is needed. The panel can double as weather protection for the battery and the camera.

As for the "wireless video" we don't know haw far away the receiver is going to be. Wifi and non-wifi wireless video signals have distance limitations so please take this into account in the system design. Walls, trees and other obstructions can also impact (reduce) the distance between the camera and receiver wireless video connection.

Until we know more about the system design, throwing out random suggestions for equipment is not useful for your implementation.

Security camera system?

I'm trying to find a security camera system that will connect to my computer. I need the cameras to be outdoor type. I want to be able to connect to my computer and record any events. I would like to keep it around $300.00 for the system. Thank you for all answers.


Answer
Two on-line vendors who sell such systems are:

However, I think you may have a tough time trying to buy everything you need with outdoor cameras for only $300.

Good luck.
