as above best to replace it all dude, if I was going DIY I deffo wouldn’t buy Swann again.

in regards to Hik, even the pros that don’t like it know it’s half decent kit especially for DIY market.

i doubt you will find anyone on here that has dealt with Hiwatch, this is the new Downrated version of Hikvision kit designed to obliterate Swann and the like

Thanks, SJSTURNER, I didn't realise that.

hi fellas and thanks for the replies.

 

I was looking at Hik because of the price and it seems to be decent gear?

Debenhams plus have a few for sale in kit form that would do for me.

They even have a POE kit to save on the wiring.  Are these any good?

Hi fellas.

 

I have a Swann DVR8-4000 which has two Swann cams and one Sunkwang PTZ (which has just died)  installed.

I'm having some alterations on the house and I am going to take this opportunity and move the DVR/cabling to a different room.

While I am on I may as well swap out the dead camera and add a few more.

 

But my question is this.

Which Hikvision cameras are compatible with my DVR?

Would I be better to replace the DVR and the cameras? 

 

Thanks for any help fellas.

Hi folks.

I'm an ex-electrician who drifted away from the trade to do other things when I was just out of my time.

I'm here to pick your brains and try and figure out which CCTV gear I need to install around the exterior of my house.
