Default Best wireless CCTV camera (cheap !)

All

Looking for the best wireless CCTV camera with a range of about 50meters through a few walls. Will be used day/night & doesn't have to be ultra high clarity, just using it to look over the rear of my property from my study in the house.....any suggestions ?

E-bay seems to be full of these very things mate, normally all priced at well under £40, sure they are advertised as having a range off up to 100 metres, watch as a few off the sellers of these things are honk kong / china based but there are still a good few uk sellers offering this type off thing.

downside is that these £40 ones are not licencable / legal here in the uk although if this worries you ( ??!! ) then there are ones available that work on legal approved freqs, unfortunately slightly more expensive !!

sure have read on here here off a few othere forum users who use a cctv camera like this, myself use a cheap but decent picture quality wired cctv camera to watch over the drive ( was purchased from Aldi in one off there sales ) seriously thinking of buying one of these wireless cctv ones off ebay to protect the rear garden especially at this price !!

sound- believe they dont have a built in michrophone ?? but when I enquired with one seller they advised that these were avilable at only £5 extra !!

let me know how you get on ??

cheers,
john

Not too worried about the legal frequencies - though will this effect receiving the picture on a TV set in the house ? Not sure - if not then don't really care if its legal, just that it works !
Will let you know.

nearly all the cheap wireless ones are crap!

I have a wired one at my home and it cost me £100 inc dvr card, and theres about 100 metres of cable on each camera, they are ir as well. and the picture at night is awesome.

if your local to me your more than welcome to come and have a look.
