It's just like nv/thermal ya get what ya pay for.Wow thanks everyone. I envisioned 8 cams to a 2 TB with cloud option and monitors in my house with remote view option. Constant cameras not motion activation with decent NV. Thought it cost a fortune.
Some folks might say you're paranoid...I say you're wise. The "cloud" is just a big ass computer being monitored by ??? No thanks.Intetested and following. Did the whole house myself, inside/out, with Ring 'cause the Internet convinced the wife it was the best. Have to admit, it worked well in the beginning. Now the lag time on notificatiins is so long, it's useless.
Currently looking for a 6-8 camera, inside/outside system, with it's own hard drive (no cloud) and I'd like to be able to access/manage via "secure" Internet/wifi. Don't want anyone, anywhere, accessing/sharing anything without my permission. A manual system "kill" switch located inside would be a plus. I get I could just kill the power....
I've seen cloud storage fail and "lose" data multiple times. I recommend a aback-up to the back-up. Plus, what you said. Anything on the cloud is available to just about anyone for the right price/threat.Some folks might say you're paranoid...I say you're wise. The "cloud" is just a big ass computer being monitored by ??? No thanks.
