I have a 19'' monitor lying round, and i have an idea of putting cctv on the backdoor and front door, is there anything out there for this pref wireless as im useless drilling etc.

I live in a 4 story house so if someone knocks the door i can check cctv on monitor which will be next to me rather than run down 4 flights of stairs, as for front it will be focused on our cars

Any sites etc, advice?
 
well i found a battery pack one, which has something like 48hrs life before change which is fine, but solar power in wales more chance of me not having sexual thoughts about sheep.
 
he will deny everything its in our DNA, anyway back to the matter anyone with some info or anyone even done this?
 
Here is the Email apart from Links.

be aware that IR "nightvision" is utterly useless (unless you've got a bucketload of IR source). Also do you want to be changing the battery pack 3-4 times a week? On each camera...

The battery pack one doesn't look like it's weatherproof either. (I showed him batt pack camera no link )

With just 2 cameras, 160gig is fine, you could record at 4-8fps per camera and have plenty of storage. I'm recording 6 cameras onat a 300gig and i get 30 days of recording. (cards will always advertise their TOTAL recording ability, 25fps, 50fps, 100fps, etc, but then you have to share it out over the number of channels and it's not as shiney as it would first seem)

I use a 25fps card £25, and a 50fps card £40.

I'll say it again, IR lighting is CRAP unless you have a dedicated source. Street lighting/motion lights are you cheapest option for nighttime viewing.
 
ZTV Colour Wireless High Resolution Day/Night CCTV Camera With Receiver (906D) £84.95 (inc VAT ) thats what im going for :) I THINK........
