Security cameras are a must-have nowadays due to scumbags out there. Who would like to take what you worked hard at getting? Just because they want it and just steal from you.
Camera
I was looking at different types of cameras and I looked at Arlo. They have some pretty good cameras. To protect you and your family.
Looking for
Here is what I am looking for:
- WIFI
- Direct connect would be better
- Weather resistant
- Siren
- Good field of view
- At least 2k
- Direct connect power source
- Power
- Solar Panel
- 2 way Audio
- Video History
- 15 day
- 30 day
- 60 day
- Good subscription plan
- Doorbell
- Floodlight
Have
Arlo has a lot of the features I am looking for so this is a good start. One camera doesn’t have the ability to connect to WIFI, so why get it. If you have to do a direct connection to the base. Which means you have to run a cord or something like that. Good video history. The no plan has no video history.
They have the cameras I am looking for.
So far so good right.
Looking at plans
If you want to you can pay $2.99 a camera for what is called Secure Plan or the secure plus plan depending on the camera you get. You can also pay $9.99 a month for unlimited cameras. Now that is what I am talking about.
Local storage
I know people who have Arlo, and they have a storage device for recordings. Which I think is a pretty good thing to have.
My thoughts
This looks like a good system to protect your home from those scumbags out there.
