Q-See QS2350C Weatherproof Color CCD Camera Kit With Built-in Heat Circulating Blower

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Security and Surveillance
from: Digital Peripheral Solutions


The camera does not have sufficient information to tell you why or how the circulating blower works. Although it gives great video (somewhat blurred) in daylight it also gives good video in color at night for a very good distance these attributes cannot be overcome by the large size and the fact that it requires the power source (110 outlet) where the camera is located. Power cannot be supplied over a dual wire cable similar to other Q-See cameras. Would not recommend due to size and power requirement.

Q-See QSDNV Indoor Dome CMOS Camera w/Night Vision (Color)

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Security and Surveillance
from: Digital Peripheral Solutions


Purchased three of these cameras from Amazon for indoor use. Camera quality is quite dissapointing.

The video extension cable is garbage and totally unsheilded, I was actually picking up radio stations using the cable that came with the camera, not to mention the horrible picture.

If you do purchase this camera, be sure to buy or make up your own video cable...

D-Link DCS-5300 10/100TX Internet Camera, Pan/Tilt, Built-in Microphone

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Security and Surveillance
from: D-Link Systems, Inc.


The camera is a nice design, fair quality image and easy to set up.

The enclosed web-based software from Dlink is nice and easy to handle and does the job cleanly and simply.

Exactly what you want from a home or small office camera system to monitor activity.

However, I purchased the cameras (2) because of the description of the IP security suite that was supposed to come with it, allowing 16 cameras to be monitored and recorded simultaneously.

Rubbish....! The software was terrible and recording just one camera was a pain, then playing it back was even worse.

It's hard to describe just how bad that software was.

Cameras were nice though.

Swann Night Hawk 2.4 GHz Wireless Outdoor Security System

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Security and Surveillance
from: Swann


We bought this camera not as a security feature, but as a "foal watch" camera to monitor our mares out in the barn about to foal. It was easy to install and we have been very happy with the clarity of the picture. The only thing is when the cordless phone rings, the picture goes bonkers, but other than that, it's worked out fine. Good value for the price.

Panasonic BB-HCM371A Outdoor Wireless Network Camera

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Security and Surveillance
from: Panasonic


This Panasonic outdoor camera is a great little product. It is used outside our condo and it has operated in temperatures of -5 without any issues. An attached SD card allows many photos to be saved on a chip and the zoom lens allows us to see things pretty close. The only issue is finding a powered outdoor speaker for use with two-way communications. Panasonic wasn't able to provide a vendor and we haven't been able to find one on our own. Except for this issue the camera works as advertised.

Skylink HA-318 Household Alert Motion Alert Set

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Security and Surveillance
from: Skylink


First of all, the base unit is very small, not much bigger than a deck of cards. That's not a bad thing, it just looked bigger in the pictures.

It is fairly easy to set up and works fairly well, although it was a little hard to get the sensors working at first.

The trouble with this item is that it gives false alarms. I have 2 sensors, they light the #1 and #2 light on the unit. However, soon after I started testing the #3 light started rapidly blinking. I don't have a sensor 3.

And twice the alarm has gone off when it shouldn't have. I have #1 in my living room, I was home alone and it started beeping. I thought "what the heck?" and went out to the living room, nothing and no one was there. That was creepy though. ... Read More:
