I think I will most likely be using one or two vandal domes, and the rest will be bullets. I didn't know they came with heater/blowers. Do most bullets come with mounts that hide the wires? Thanks

How do I find camera mounts that will hide all cables? I will be mostly placing cameras under the soffit, but some may need to be attached to the wall and I don't want any visible cables. Thanks

Haven't bought cameras, yet, but most likely will be 24volt. Thanks

I am not in the security business, this is for my residential setup. The reason I ask is because I want to try different locations to see if the view is what I want. I understand I can connect the camera to a monitor, but how do I get power to the camera easily, like with an extension cord or something like that?

How does everyone check camera video and placement around a house? I've read where some people bring 13" monitors and some bring 3" lcd's, but how does everyone power their cameras?

What is a dip switch?

I will calculate the costs of rg59 vs cat5e and see what comes out cheaper. I'm probably going to run 16/2 or 18/2 with it because I can get it pretty cheap. Can I run the 16/2 or 18/2 beside the rg59? Is plenum rated the kind to get or does it matter? Thanks

So I should be looking into the flex for home use? I'm looking to have the dvr hooked up to a monitor and to 2 tv's. I'll have to go to the dvr to change which two channels are being shown on the tv's, right?

I'm going to use cat 5e for my cctv setup. How will I know if the cat 5e is good quality? Can I look for certain writing on the wire itself, can I buy the cat 5e from local electrical supply houses or is it better to order from the net? Can I run 18/2 beside the cat 5e? My runs will not be any longer than 100', would it make sense to use anything other than 18/2? Thanks

I have alot of questions written down, but all I can think of right now is: What's the difference between Flex R30, Pro, and Pro II and Will remote viewing work with firefox or will I have to use IE?

I still have a few questions about this dvr, so I won't be buying right away. Thanks

Thanks

Are Security Monster and Kandcorp the only one's here who sell these dvr's? Thanks

I guess I will need to shop around. Just grabbing a couple of quick prices off the internet, for the parts you suggested, comes to a good bit of money. I probably don't need the quad core or the 4GB of ram so maybe it isn't that much. I'll check into it. Do you think the GV-2008 is any better or worse than the IC Realtime?

I would think commercial, too, but I don't know for sure.
