Awesome System

I can only sum it up as an AWESOME system. I still have 2 cameras to place but so far I could not be more pleased. It has all the features that I could ask for. Customer service techs are super when or if you have a problem understanding anything about using the system at all..

Awesome Camera System!!!

I bought the 4 camera system 2 months ago. Once I learned how great these cameras work day and night I decided to increase the system to 6 cameras! Then by only 3 more weeks I decided to get 2 more!!! So the system now has 8 cameras!!!! It is AWESOME!!!!

Easy installation, great pix format

Excellent operation in setup and viewing. One thing, the firmware needs to be updated on the MCU to have more selections of viewing IE: Picture views of 1-8 of the hardwired cameras and 4 wireless. A diagram of 1-12 and option of rolling selections of what user chooses. With current firmware wireless pix cannot be manipulated. IE move to a new position. But besides that great equipment, I have been using Night Owl since early 2000’s

2nd one. It works well.

This is the second of this model that I've purchased for our church. The only issue is that I was told they would play well together and there are a couple cameras that are no longer showing up on the first one. I'm going to try to move them to the second one and see if that solves the problem.

Great Camera with "Wire Free" Convenience

It fulfills it purpose of being a completely wire free camera that you can place anywhere within the range of the wireless recorder. Good features and sensitivity, and the ability to "Speak" through the Camera speaker and "Listen" using the Mobile Application. One Caveat though is that while they say "Up to 6months of Battery life" that must have been in an empty room with zero "Triggers" on the camera, since I have this configure to only trigger on "Human" and "Face" and with 10-12 Triggers per day, the batteries only last 2 weeks before needing a recharge. However, knowing that was likely, I also bought the wall charger that comes with a spare set of batteries so that you can just swap the dead ones with the fresh ones and put the others back on the charger for the next time.

Great clear picture

I started setting up Nightowl stand alone security cameras at my rental property last year. I have been very pleased with the picture clarity and easy installation. It makes my tenants feel more secure having cameras watching over their parking areas. I would definitely recommend Nightowl cameras.

For a first time user, you can't go wrong

Best part of the camera, it's simple. Nothing complicated to do other than putting the batteries in an mounting it where you want. The whole system was really easy to put together and make everything work. I suggest put all the cameras and base together on your tv hdmi connection and router your network is on.This way you can insure everything works, pairs, adjusts, records, and scare people who don't know you have it on and hidden. The only thing I don't like, it's not 4k like the ones with my NVR. Didn't think I would complain about HD camera resolution, but 4k is blow'n 1080p away. Once you get everything paired, and it all works doing the items like brightness, recording, activating by movement, points where it should, then wait a day before using the cameras in the location you've picked.. . You can install and run the app while the system is connected to the tv. And let it run for 24 hours, for a on test to see what happens to everything before mounting it. Once the app is installed, and the phone is going to be used for controlling the system, you will have to reboot the box, for it to have the phone as primary controller. I put my cameras on a 2-3' wide board 10-12 inches long. This lets you aim the camera when holding the phone and aiming the camera for the best coverage.. Leave the cameras in place an go look using the tv. I did this with one screw holding the board to temp mount it. after watching it for hours, 3 of the 4 were moved several feet. Don't forget the power supply can't be left out in the weather, so get a 12v power cord that can reach it and tape up the connections. Put all your cables under cover to stay dry, then use a power strip or 2-6 way plug adapter. It was harder to place the 4k cameras than the add on. It came several days later. Install the batterys, it turns on itself, install to system with app, make sure everything works and camera starts recording and adjusts like it should, then go find a place to put it. I painted mine a camo brown, then put outside were no one would notice high up to get coverage of yard and house. It's been a week, still over 70% battery using 4 of them. This system, a bluetooth NVR with 1 TB drive and 4 cameras @4k resolution is really simple to use. The add on cameral, with batteries is idiot proof. If they were 4k, and used batteries like the one I have, it could be a kickass super simple setup to use and move around where ever you wanted.

Glitchy, not the best option, but will work.

set up was fairtly simple but if your using a desktop set up its VERY limited on what you can do or adjust. they make you use the App.. fine but its VERY SLOW. video on day one as 10s slower then real time.. that's a LONG time when somebody is waiting at the door. or breaking it down. looking at past footage is clunky. not easy to select times, to view, and again its all on your tiny phone so cant see much.. you cant access the past footage on the desktop application. only phone... that should not be a hard fix for them. so what's the prob? and you have to pay for a advanced version of the app to access footage from ANYWHERE. or you can only use it when your in WIfi range.

Had trouble with the NVR.Cameras work well.

The first NVR that I received with my WNIP2 system would not get to the startup page and had to return it. The warranty replacement NVR made it to the Startup Wizard and was now able to complete the NVR and camera setup. At first the mouse was working but the menu on the monitor didn't seem to be working. I did a factory reset to see if the menu would start working but the mouse stopped working. I then used a different mouse and it worked and the menu worked. After I plugged the Night Owl mouse into the my computer, it seemed to reset and was able to now work with the Night Owl System. I still have one problem, when I go to the computer Protect CMS App I get this: Says the NVR is OFFLINE, when it seems to be working monitor and the phone. I’ve tried all of this but nothing works! NOTE: If you are experiencing this status, please perform the following steps: 1. Plug an Ethernet cable from your router (network) to your Night Owl recorder. 2. Wait until a system prompt appears stating “Internet Detected.” 3. Click “Login.” 4. Enter your local admin password. 5. Click “Login” again. 6. On the Night Owl Protect App icon page, click “I already have an account.” 7. Enter your Night Owl Protect login credentials. 8. Logout of the Night Owl Protect CMS and log back in. 9. Your Night Owl device should now be showing an Online status.

no bueno

multiple problems right out of the box, apparently not tested after whatever refurbishing was done. Did not recognize hard drive, not picking up or recording audio, red speckles across the pictures, not able to connect via app. Previous system I had purchased new had no issues until a lightning strike
