G0HWC Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 Hi all, I would like some advice on buying a DVR to setup up a home security system. I have been hunting the MINEFIELD of DVR's and just want to make sure I don't end up buying a box of junk. I have been looking at the Procom 8 ch DVR with 1 TB HD Here is a link to it http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/320921369058 I would like to have access to it via the net and also allow limited access to it via my website and use both PTZ and fixed cams. So is this a good buy or is there something else members think would sute my needs better ?

matthew.brough Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 There are a lot of junk dvrs around. The one you have looked at is by far from the most spectacular in the world but there are plenty of them and similar from a number of suppliers. What is the most you are prepared to pay for one? 73s www.securitywarehouse.co.uk/catalog/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matthew.brough Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 Tbh at £200 mark all products in that price range aren't going to be staggeringly different in terms of quality. They are built to a price. I wouldn't expect the earth. Someone here might have a particular favourite but it is a case that you get what you pay for and £200 is at the very low end of the scale in dvr terms. Better than a VHS tape though. www.securitywarehouse.co.uk/catalog/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
