[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Night Owl Wired Security System works flawlessly. The 60 foot cords fit hardwiring that are included were plenty for our application, but longer cords are available as well. The camera instillation was quick as we were able to run the wires outside on the walls. We do have previous experience, so that should be stated. Directions for in wall running of the cords were also included and quite thorough. Where these cameras really shine is the picture quality. Through the app you can check in from anywhere with wifi and see as if you were there. Less than 5 second lag time and alert notifications are helpful. There is no need for monthly plans and fees with the included hard drive. The human detection settings work well, but other things still occasionally trip the light. Overall it’s a great product and was exactly what we needed for keeping an eye remotely on our property.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Night Owl 4k Security Cameras are pretty amazing. We love the clarity and that we are able to use thru wifi directly to our television as well as on our phones. They also track people as they come into view so you are able to monitor quickly. The dvr also has a 1 tb hard drive so it holds a ton of video for you to keep on hand just in case anything needs to be watched. As I said before such a great device and I would definitely recommend to all in need of a great Surveillance system!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I get this system here because of the reviews I was hearing about them . And I am very happy with them . Itnwas very easy to set up and the cameras have the clearest pictures and the spotlight is so bright by the second night we knew who or what was messing around our yard . It wasnt the monsters my kids thought it was . The spotlight blinded the whole little family of racoons . That was making so much noise . The pictures are so clear . This is so easy to set and Like that alarms are.sent straight to my phone and I can see what is happening at my home when Im not there

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this system when we moved into a new house, given all the uncertainty in the world at this time. It is my first foray into the world of home security. I really appreciate the highest amount of storage for the recordings, and the crystal clear imagery. The fact that the cameras are lighted is very convenient as well. Overall, I sleep better at night knowing that this system is keeping us secure

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Night Owl 4K UHD wired security system is an incredible value. It comes with 4 very high quality cameras and is expandable to 12 total channels. Installation was straightforward, the hardest part was running the cables. Otherwise, the software is intuitive and provides easy access to most of the features. The spotlights are excellent and provide easy, bright visualization of whatever is being recorded. Video quality is great, can make out details easily. However, I don’t think I’d be able to make out a license plate or identifying detail from far away. Overall, very pleased with the system and would recommend it to anyone who is searching for a customizable / expandable solution.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my very first security camera system, so keep that in mind. I don't know how much of these things are common in other products. I really like these cameras. Out of the box, everything is labeled very nicely. Wires have tags that tell you where they plug into, and the install directions are explained very clearly. So, first impressions are inviting. I plugged everything in my room just to check if everything worked, and to check recorder box. Once it all checked out, I was able to install the cameras outside. The wires were all 60 feet long which for my house was plenty. They sell extended wires on their site which is cool. Once I was able to really settle everything in place, I was able to get a good understanding of the software on both the box/monitor and the app on my phone. The UI on the monitor was bland, but very straight forward. That's fine because I care more about the ease of use than I do on how pretty it looks. The menus were straight forward and very intuitive to navigate. The resolution is 4k in the sense that the resolution size is 4k, but the actual quality of the image is just OK. It's a security camera... I'm not filming a blockbuster on it. Facial recognition is awesome, and at least the clarity is great. You can play with exposure and contrast, but they don't drastically change for the better. These cameras are leagues far above average securities cameras though so don't think that they're terrible or anything. The app is very good, and the notifications are great because you can change the sensitivity of what wakes up the camera. Which is great, because you can make it pretty relaxed or else you'll get notified whenever a leaf passes in view. I really do like the cameras, and I really do like my decision to get them.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Installed this using an existing PoE system by purchasing some adapters and it’s working great. I didn’t want to piecemeal a PoE setup together like I had originally done at our house so now I have the DVR and cameras all working together and it’s a game changer.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Night Owl system is great. Only took me about an hour to install the whole system. It consists of 4 wired cameras and the 1tb DVR. Video quality is amazing during the day, very little false alarms due to the human tracking feature. It does an amazing job knowing the difference of a person, car, animal, and shadows from the sun changing. My old system would get tons of false alarms because of the lighting changing through out the day. This system is easy to use, the interface on the DVR is easy to navigate around, and the mobile app works very well too. It's put together nicely. Cameras work very well at night too. I get better color in darker lighting then my old system and the night vision is amazingly clear. I can rest at night knowing I have a great system watching over my property and family while we are sleeping or away from home. If you are looking for a security system, don’t hesitate to get this one. The DVR is expandable to 12 cameras which is more then you’ll ever need. I’m am extremely happy with this Night Owl system, having the 4K Resolution is a game changer, and a must have. The detail is incredible. Love it. Very happy with this system!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had these Night Owl 12 Channel 4K DVR with 1TB HDD and 4 x 4K Wired Light Cameras professionally installed for me so they were done right and as soon as they were up, I was instantly impressed with how easy the app was to set up and use (even for me) - I have an iPhone and the set up was very easy. The cameras are also great, I love the very bright spotlights, which add extra security. The cameras also have a very wide view so I can see so much more than with my previous cameras. I am purchasing another set, which will cover my entire property.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this surveillance camera set to replace my old battery operated cameras . Picture quality is great! It’s not match to having the battery operated camera quality . One camera can capture a large area so I was able to drop downs from 9 cameras to 4 cameras and still capture the same amount of area. Installation can be a pain . But once you have one camera down they all go pretty quick . My suggestion would be to plan out where you are going to run all your cables first and than attack the installation. The app is great , once you play around with it for a few days you’ll have it down . The spotlight leather is also great , not a lot of cameras have and actual spot light built in. Don’t think about it too much just buy the system it’s well worth it .
