Tu MaDRe 0 Posted June 30, 2017 Hello, FRESH NEW here.. Ordering this set coming up Monday 7/3/17 for now. . 8-channel DV700 HD DVR and eight 1080p LBV2531 weatherproof bullet security cameras LX1080-88 DVR (ANALOG) BUT! I'am on a MANHUNT for an LPR camera in a complete dark area capturing license plate #'s 65mph TOPS! (since i live in court when I don't need a crazy expensive phat box shape camera) trying to spend under $500 but would LOVE a picture CLEAR as 1080p if possible. - I don't got a 4k TV otherwise I buy everything 4k but that will wait. . - what is the best brand for cable, POWER adapter cables & other MISC (if needed) because i dont think LOREX cables wont EVEN work out but maybe get 2 cameras R0LLiN' since im debating to buy a box w/ a thousand feet! EVEN the power adapter cables wont REACH. Also here are some places I've been lookin' at. . Any other websites are welcome! THANK YOU! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tu MaDRe 0 Posted July 13, 2017 So.. After day of trouble shooting..? Finally got picture & waiting on reply 4RM Lorex if they'll send me 8 to 1 POWER adapter. Since they sent me individual power adapter(s) I'll be so mad if I got to deal with of what they sent me after reading false advertisement description & try to tell me different OVER the phone However I pray nothing else goes wrong after testing all 8 cameras on ONLY one video cord & power adapter. So far I see visual on all 8 cameras! " title="Applause" /> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your asking for 1 power supply with 8 pig tails .... the one on there site ? That power supply will not run your system it's only 2amp And it is never a good idea to use pigtail power supplies....... 1 faulty camera will switch off the other 7 If your not happy with the individual power supplies then buy a central power unit 8 way 10amp individual fused Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Forget it, those are $80-$150 When I just didn't know why Lorex official website advertise a different photo before ordering. I also just didn't want to deal with 8 individual power adapter(s), after assuming I was going to plug in one power adapter this entire time. However is it okay to order this eBay power strip? http://www.ebay.com/itm/6-Outlet-Power-Strip-1-6-ft-14-3-AWG-with-Circuit-Braker-UL-LISTED-pack-of-4-/322194092586?hash=item4b0443b22a:g:cnAAAOSw0fhXif5n Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tomcctv 190 Posted July 13, 2017 Ok waste your money $29 for power strip vs $19 for power supply with right amps http://m.ebay.com/itm/9CH-DC12V-10A-Power-Supply-Distribution-Box-CCTV-Security-Surveillance-Camera-/201274019804?hash=item2edcddcfdc%3Ag%3APZIAAOSwAL9Ui%7E0C&_trkparms=pageci%253Ab7ee6fad-67a9-11e7-8cb1-74dbd18026c7%257Cparentrq%253A3b2d940715d0ab64b899bae7ffe64c95%257Ciid%253A1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To think about your input? I'm starting to feel & realize I shouldn't be cheap after NOT taking ANY risks ordering a set of cameras from ebay. Since I did order from the official website INSTEAD of dealing with 3rd party retailer. When I didn't want to pay for a product that's been sitting on the shelves for month(s)! (Especially if it's defective device). (Being a member on this forum for quiet sometime w/ so many post(s) is amazing since this kind of technology seems to be you're ball park). Perhaps I should go with your advice.. What would you do & I couldn't imagine how you're property is survellence when you probably have setup that's more advance then the president or extraterrestrials!! I wouldn't doubt your domain has the recent prototype of telekinesis technology for survellences. Seriously, what would you choose for the best option . . Lorex LBV2531 . . 8 cameras LX1080-88w . . . . .8ch 2TB DVR (ANALOG) -Truly, thank you for all of your advice!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
