This is wot I do for a living, I have one system on ebay

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...736530420&rd=1

Hard Drive system with 4 day/night cameras and monitor, easy set up and everything you need.

I never suggest recording on your PC. What happens WHEN windows crashes.

I can also supply much cheaper cams that auto record on your Video.

PM me if interested.

I tested one very similar to these, very short range on the wireless link, plus very prone to interference.

believe it or not, too small. I want it to be visable so it puts people off going near my car, so it acts as a visual deterrent itself and also if the idiots decide to gho ahead and nick it visual proof.

cheers for trying though.

have not tested one. was thinking of getting something like that myself.
do you know of a better one.

Personally I would always put a hardwired one in, If you can run a telephone cable around the house then you can fit a hard wired one. I bought one of these wireless ones from ebay, delivered from Hong Kong (camera kit cost £1.00 Del. £19.95??) They work, just, but are more for temporary short range images, not really recording your car.

I don;t want to advertise on here, but if you PM me your e-mail address I will get some prices for various cameras to you.

i wonder if you could buy a high visability fake camera box and fit the cheap ebay nightvision camera into it. all the cons without the high price equipment

agreed, looking for one to cover my car wash

theres a £300 camera allready there up a massive pole, but its the previous owners, and hes got all the wireing connectors locked away in the time lapse video case which i dont have keys for.

and i bet hes wanting sum serious cash for whats allready there

You need CCTV in Belper?

Jamo

its of no use to him anymore is it mate?

offer him a ton for all the stuff? a ton in his hand might sway him?

(plus he dont have to get a ladder out and get up the said big pole )

Jamo

iTrader: (23)

probably not, but for my piece of mind id prefer it.

plus I dont have a garage where I am now, and had a lovely warm garage so it was safe and sound at my last home

just dont want some sad ****** drawing on it, or using it as a trampolene (sp) like ive seen on some of the horror threads on here

jamo

StickyMicky

i dont want to go up a big pole to to fit one myself to be honest lol

i went half way up it to paint as far as my ladders would reach and got a bit wobbly

a ton in his hand probably wouldnt sway him me thinks, when yopu have 1k in your hand every fri/sat/sunday due to a busy period you end up thinking anything up to 100quid is loose change (its really bizzare)

keep meaning to ring him anyway as i want the time lapse video case thing shifted from the floor where its bolted down, and i cant get in without a key

Jamo

iTrader: (23)

well try and sway him with the (will you come here and get up that bloody big pole and get your camera) or i could maybe give you a few quid for it

Tip of the week, did a 4 camera system for a chap whos wife had gone a bit Fu**ed in the head, we put 2 small discreet cameras at the front and 2 at the back, as a last thought we put a bloody great obvious dummy camera at the front also.

Wife comes round knocks 7 shades of **** out the dummy with a broom. All recorded by the small cameras under the eves.

yes i know the name dosent suit but.....

I wonder if there is a small discreet system you can mount 'in' a car?

Jamo

iTrader: (23)

yeah one of toads alarms offer this. bloody expensive though. alternative is just a wireless spy cam from say bigpockets for £40, will work with a dvr, but then again your cars gone at that point isnt it?

jamo

Soulgirl

I was thinking more for the damage caused to cars by jealous individuals such as keying etc.

Jamo

iTrader: (23)

exactly the reason im looking for the cam to sit on the house

some right tossers out there unfortunatly

If youre serious, and the car is parked on the street then you will need to spend proper money in order to be able to clearly see what happened; rather than just being able to confirm that something happened. This will mean a good quality time-lapse video recorder or substitute and a C-mount lens camera. Id suggest going for black and white because colour cameras that dont cost an absolute fortune cant see in the dark, B&W can with the addition of infa-red illumination.

Also remember, if there is no time/date stamp on the images you cannot use them in court...

Also if you use a domestic VCR to record on Long play for 8 hours a day expect your VCR to last about 3-6 months, they are designed to record Corrie once a week, not be a security system.

Saying that you can pick up a VCR for about £40 quid at the mooment.
