Yeh, here in the UK, we noticed that the police only come if you have proof that someone is in your house. If the house alarm goes off and you call them to come over to investigate without having proof that someone is in your house, they dont really bother.

I agree with TipoFloe. There isnt much you can really do, as the glass is naturally reflective. And at night time, the LED sometimes reflect back, giving no image at all. Best to always drill a hole so you can mount the camera outside.

There is a VGA output at the back of the DVR. Most TV now have a VGA input, just connect that to your TV.

You need to ask the question with the seller of the camera. At extreame weather, you will need to ask if the camera is suitable for the temperature you need it for. Because maybe at -20 degrees it would be fine, but the problem will arise if it is at -25/-30. Check to see if there is a thermostatic controls, which allow the camera to heat or cool to prevent condensation from forming over the lens and obscuring its sight. I hope this helps.

Make sure the Premade 30m you buy is good enough before installing. Best to check at night, to make sure there is enough power going to the camera to power up the LED, and the resolution isnt loss. Many people focus on the camera, and not the cable, when the cable is just as important than the camera. The cable needs to be protected. You can buy good wireless cameras and it should work that distance. Obviously you will need to test it to make sure there isnt any interference before installing.

It depends on how many IR led are in in the camera, the less you have, the less illumination you will have during the night. If your looking for better night vision outside, I would generally go for LED flood light or a camera with IR array LED. I hope this helps

As female installer, Ive get this problems asked all the time. Obviously wired stuff is always better because you aren't adding EMF radiation to your area. Especially when you consider the babies brain is still very sensitive and growing dramatically. In Scandinavian countries, wireless devices like internet routers are banned in public places because of uncertainty of the effects of EMF radiation on the development of a child brain. At the moment, we only can see what is happening to children brain in the past decade. Although, one can argue if you military research they already have a conclusive data of the harms it can do to alter the DNA and brain development back in the 70. You can read up or watch interviews with Mr. Barrie Trower, who is British physicist who was a microwave weapons expert Although there are some parents who disregard the dangers and believe that if the politicians and regulators would have banned wireless devices if it is a risk to health. Until that time, they will continue to buy a wireless baby monitor. In this case, I normally would recommend wireless camera kit, rather than a baby monitor. 1 because it is generally cheaper, and after a short period of time, you can use it as a home security system. Or have different cameras placed in different rooms where the child would be, so as a parent you can see what your kid is up to in each room. I generally go for something like the below, as it is not hooked up to the internet, so you dont need to worry about someone hacking into your security system and watching your family, or making sure there is no one in. http://www.tradexguru.com/wholesale-cctv-security/wholesale-wireless-cctv-cameras/etronic-outdoor-digital-wireless-signal-4-x-cctv-camera-surveillance-system-with-4-quad-channel-sd-card-record-dvr-and-7-inch-lcd-screen.html I hope this answers your question.

DVRs are so cheap now anyway. I wouldn't risk buying it off Chinese website, and having to pay import duties/VAT/clearing charges etc... and then to find out it isn't what you need/ faulty/ designed in wield way that only the manufacturer knows how to work it.

I would suggest speaking to the rest of the tenants in your block and put a petition together regarding lack of communication, and what you want in the future.

I am not sure about India, but here in the UK, I had a customer who wanted to use a 3G dongle instead of getting an internet landline, and it was rubbish. It had slow transmission. She also complained that after a certain amount of days, the transmission got so bad, there was no signal. This was due to the mobile network company limiting her internet connection, as she was classed as a high user.

How far would the video door phone be from your house?

Have you checked your computer to make sure it hasnt got virus on there to collect all all your credit card number and passwords?

I would seriously go and by on quality rather than price. This is with everything in life. In my view there isnt a real ppoint of getting cheap nasty cameras and then find out when the footage is needed, the image is not good enough to be used in a court of law. There are a lot of cheap cameras on the market and after a few months, the pictures seem to fade and give a wash out effect. And the night vision range isnt that great. The range is limited. etc.... Once you et a good camera up, that is just one last headache you need to worry about, and you can forget about it, and not spend more on upgrading.

chinese DVRs normally come with the menu setting for you to change the language to English. you can go online and try to follow someone elses instructions to see if you recognise any of the words to change the language. I would suggest if you cant, just find someone who can read Chinese to do it for you. Usually your local CCTV would be able to, as most of us who are in the business recognise the words, but they will obviously charge for this service.
