    IR or low light

    Any recommendations. Just looking for something to keep eye on a car that someone has been messing with. Sits about 40 ft away from my house on the road and I do have a 50 watt HPS light 20 ft away form car. Got a Advermedia DVR with a IR cam that does OK. A GS232 from Gadspot. But wondering if a day/night cam would be better. But why dont they make one like a IR cam without the IR lights. Seems you have to buy a cam then a waterproof box which make this twice the size. I have light about like a full moon is there a rule of thumb when to use IR or not. Thanks

    Yes looks like a Qsee would be a better deal. I was thinking a DVR instead of using my PC to save wear and tear and dont have to leave my PC turned on 24 hours a day. From what I am reading it looks like a DVR with a ethernet plug would need some type of special software with a monthly fee for me to use.

I was thinking about getting a camera and DVR from sams culb. http://www.samsclub.com/shopping/navigate.do?dest=5&item=343535 and http://www.samsclub.com/shopping/navigate.do?dest=5&item=169838 they have cheaper cameras but I guess with low lighting I might need the better one but I have no idea and am new to this. And am just guessing a DVR is better than a VCR. Don’t know how but would be nice if I could also view the camera on all TVs in the house like just turning to ch.2 on any TV. Would really appreciate any suggestions on equipment and what I plan
