    Security camera/system help

    I didn't see a recent thread, or I'm blind, so here we are. I'm about 75% sure someone was trying to open my front door this morning around 5:45 AM. I told my wife who reminded me that a few months ago she left her car unlocked and she knew someone had went through it because the center compartment's items were in the passenger seat. Yep, we would like to get some cameras.

    So I have no idea where to start for home solutions. I have plenty of HDD space so that's no issue. If anyone would like to do an outline of say: Home Security for beginners that would be awesome.

    We have a set at work similar to this one. It was not this expensive when we bought it, you might be able to find a cheaper model:

    https://www.amazon.com/FLIR-4-Channe...ty+cameras+POE

    I recommend the POE option (power over ethernet) as you only need to run an ethernet cable to it instead of multiple.


    Playback is easy. You can search to watch for only motion instead of sitting watching hours of footage. Also can be pulled up on your phone if you connect it properly to the internet.

    @.@ $1K. I'm sure it's worth it but I'm trying to cheap in these streets. Maybe I'll put up a cardboard cutout of a police officer and put it by our doors at night.
