Thumbs up I went for LOrex based POE Utra HD 4k system with 2TB NVR

Someone on here recommended Lorex so I went for a fairly basic system but with plenty of scope for later upgrade.

My Lorex NVR has a 2TB memory with Ultra HD 4 K 8 Channel System POE based system.

I only have two Lorex night vision cameras a LNB 8005 with night vision 8MP Ultra HD, plus one motorised camera LNB 8973 they are both colour but will switch to B&W in very low light conditions.

Scope for cloud storage with more at extra cost, my NVR saves a rolling 28 days of footage - plenty for me.

Secure access to system that can be viewed on phone or PC. Took me a while to set it up, still haven't managed to sort out the free cloud storage. Gave a lot of thought to camera locations & NVR location.

System has lots of options for privacy screening etc, alerts to your mobile or via e-mail.
