I bought this to replace my old nightowl system and wholly crap!! This system and the new app are sweet! Cameras are clear and I can now read license plates with ease! I'm still stund at the clarity of these cameras and the distance they reach! Thanks again nightowl !!

this system is our second Night owl security set up. I'm am happy it works but, we had plenty of issues and it's got a steep learning curve. Not so user friendly. The options are limited and incomplete compared to the older system. It does however have decent cameras.

I have had my Lorex system for about two and a half years now, and I had to replace four cameras due to the mounts and arms breaking. The DVR is great, but cameras are expensive. I do install camera systems for my customers, and now I can no longer recommend Lorex systems. The Night Owl system is a great system, the only thing I do not like is most of the programing and set up is done through the app.

I recently upgraded my older device because I wanted to improve 3 areas. 1. Motion Detection including using spotlights 2. Notifications 3. Ability to view camera feed when not on local wifi The motion detector triggered when a moth flew by, or when it rained. At night it was almost a constant stream of recording. I could not use notifications or the spotlight. I also leveraged recording areas to minimize the motion detection. This only patched the problem partially. Therefore I decided to upgrade from a DVR-C20-41-JF to a WM-BTD281-4LSA. The new system was easy to initialize and good news it does allow for Human Detection and at this time seems to work sufficiently. Therefore I have enabled the spotlight and some notifications. Also the upgrades to the App have allowed better viewing of my recordings while remote. But I lost the ability to lengthen the recording time for each occurrence as well as some other small features and functions. I would say the App is still a bit clunky and needs improvements. p.s - I am still learning the features and functionality of the new device, hopefully they continue to improve the product As of today this is a solid product in a space with a lot of other solid products. But not a leader.

I am so happy with these cameras

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very pleased thank you

Awesome with app.

Works very well, just wish it came with the wi-fi cameras.

My second night owl system and its just as s*^ty as the first. Please be cautious, do your research. Spend the extra $ and go with another brand

Been a night owl customer for years, upgraded every few years. This is our third system and very happy with it.
