Night Owl MPEG4 Internet Ready 4 channel DVR w/ 4 Night Vision Cameras and 500GB HD (Tiger-4500)

Great system for the do it your selfer. Great price for the home. Easy to install and maintain

Just had the power cord supply fail. Will update on the company's response and results. Resolution is low but great optics for a cheap system with night vision

The cameras work well even in very low lighting, an easy system to set up. User interface is simple to navigate

The DVR locks up after just a few days of use and requires a reboot. This will happen more and more frequently the longer you run the system. Night Owls customer service department tried to help me but really could only recommend I unplug it and plug...

The hardware is easy to setup. I had a camera up and running within a few minutes. The cameras are heavy-duty but the mounting screws are not. I snapped a few when screwing them into my eaves

The hard drive is very unreliable. One day it will record and the next day it will not record. The date stamp is constantly changing and my recorded files will be temporarily "lost" until I reset the hard drive. Sometimes it will show it is recording,...

The cameras it comes with are decent. Cabling being included is handy

Freezes and slows down after short periods of use ; Manufacturer won't do much about it ; Remove viewing and administration is really lame ; Mobile phone support is a joke/non-existent ; Can't return just the DVR..must return ALL cameras AND wiring it...

none it never worked pictue was so bad u cldnt make out any detail. called tech support, what a joke, they told me what do i expect for the price and its for nite only. didnt even try to c if it was a setting or something ; newegg rocks as always and i...

what a waste of time

So far so good. About three days of continuous recording and it hasn't stuttered or froze up yet. Comes with about everything you need to hook it up, including the USB-A to USB-A to hook the device to a computer for backups (and network cable). Has the...

You must have IE 7 or greater installed to view the cameras over the network along with some other functionality. The web controls rely on Active X. Larger homes will probably need to get longer cables. Remote seems to only work when directly in front...

Easy set up & cameras do a decent job

Constantly locking up. Have to reboot A LOT. Cameras will go completely dark, it loses track of time, and reviewing is clunky at best. Remote control has to be within feet of unit

The cameras work in absolute darkness, the motion detector is amazing and you are allowed to create sectors (good if you have trees in the way)

no wifi

Fair camera reception and easy menus. Affordable price

Have to reboot DVR a lot because of camera or DVR errors

I found 1 of the cameras getting condensation inside the lens. Not a very good seal I guess
