Buyer’s Guide: What to Consider

Choosing the right no-subscription camera system depends on your property, power needs, and night vision expectations. Here are key factors to weigh.

• Night Vision Quality: Look for color night vision for clear details, or infrared for total darkness. Range matters—some see 65-100 feet.
• Storage Options: Local storage like SD cards or hubs avoids fees. Check capacity and whether it's expandable.
• Power Source: Solar-powered cameras are wire-free but need sunlight. Battery models last months; wired ones need outlets.
