    Hi folks. I have several questions about surveillance cams and stuff related to them:

    1) Are there weatherproof wireless security cams? If there are, do they work via Bluetooth or WiFi? What is the range of their signal?

    2) How do they produce the 4-in-1 image on the monitors wherein you see 4 different camera images on each quadrant of the screen? Is it produced by the monitor itself or a separate video device?

    3) How many hours/days of video can a regular DVR store?

    Trying to set-up a home security system. Thanks.

    There are wireless cameras but they use their own frequency. And wireless security cameras come with their own receivers. So far, I haven't seen a weatherproof wireless cameras though.


    2) How do they produce the 4-in-1 image on the monitors wherein you see 4 different camera images on each quadrant of the screen? Is it produced by the monitor itself or a separate video device?
    The 4-in-1 image or similar is produced by the DVR machine. So you just plug in the cameras to the DVR and the output is already 4-in-1 or 8-in-1 or whatever capacity the DVR has.


    3) How many hours/days of video can a regular DVR store?
    Depends on the hard disk capacity and video resolution used per camera. Typical 80gig HDD could last 30 to 40 days at normal resolution with four cameras. But with other systems (like the one I setup at our office), it can last 30 days with eight cameras because I have set the frame rate from 30fps to 15fps.

    Thanks sir ghosthunter.

    Looks like it will be "wired" cameras for us since we plan to install them outdoors, concealed but exposed to the sun and rain.

    Sa Rover Security Systems sa Gilmore near St Paul's QC. Di ko alam yung pangalan nung building pero dun sa merong Shakey's sa unahan. Sa loob-looban pa nung building yung pwesto nila.

    Kung gusto mo makamura, try Raon/Quiapo area.

    You can start with the DIY shops (like ACE hardware) as a starting point.

    But usually I drop by MC home depo at Ortigas Center. There is a store there that sells the whole system. So if you need a whole system or simply a new DVR or camera, its nearly a one stop shop. Prices will vary depending on the stuff you buy. Best to know what you want to use it for (lighting, clarity, etc) before you go shopping for this stuff.

    DVRs can be as simply as a stand alone recorder or as complex as a web connected system. A DVR can also be made out of a standard computer.

    I was thinking of doing this also but I'm wary about running the CPU 24/7 as it might overheat.

    had changed all my Hikvision to Dahua (16ch).
    kasi new requirement with audio.
    yung full color starlight kahit gabi ay malinaw pa rin.
    yung mga pulis dito sa bayan namin ay lagi silang humihingi ng footage pag meron gustong tignan sa highway.

    Better ba ang software ng Dahua compared to HIK? Nag improve naman ang performance ng HIK mobile app over the years pero it's still not intuitive lalo na for playbacks or for saving footage. Have to also replace the cheap HDD they included with the install dahil puno na ng bad sector.

    Also trying out a Tapo wifi camera. It still needs a power source pero it has its own SD and is all controlled via its mobile app.
