But, I've already upgraded the DVR to an 8 channel KKMON with HDMI out, AHD DVR. Compared to the generic DVR from CD-R king, it made the two old CCTV cameras way better in image quality, to my surprise. I thought I had new CCTV cam installed. Wow.
Since, I wanted a 6 camera set up, I bought 4 brand new cameras (ANRAN) with 1200TV lines and a WD 1TB Hardisk. The image quality is far superior than my old ones. Connecting the cameras to the DVR and configuring it is a breeze. I've connected the DVR to a router so I can view the cameras on my ipad. Set up was easy. No headache.
What's really tiring and labor intensive is the cable installation. Took me a few days to install everything alone. I even had to go up the attic to install the cables and drilled some holes. Grrr!
I haven't installed the spy audio yet, Hehehehe. I've also installed two hidden Bosch horns which are connected through WIFI. I designed this specifically to shoo away dogs that might poo in front of my gate and also naughty kids that play around my car. Every time I see them on my CCTV, I simply press the button on my ipad and boom, like the sound of a freight train, they won't know what hit them. LMAO!!
I intended to hire a professional CCTV installer. Will save me all the hassle. But, way over budget. I just decided to DIY nalang. All my supplies can be bought from Lazada - from Siamese cables to BNC connectors. Everything.
