I've had this system for over a year now (2 sets of 2 cameras) and I find it very reliable with decent wifi coverage. As a bonus the batteries can last up to two years if you dial everything down. You've got them for a very good price indeed.

Re: What have you just bought?

Thanks - considering each camera was £89.99 before the deal, I was very happy (and I’ll save the clips locally to a USB stick, rather than to the manufacturer’s server (as I do at the moment, so save a monthly fee).

I paid a shed load more than that for mine. I got two only, in case they weren't any good but was so pleased I got another two...a bit stupid as I could have had the 5 camera kit for a lot cheaper overall
The only saving grace is I get my online storage for free. I think the cut off was July or August, after which you have to pay.
Very easy to set up, the base unit is titchy but extends the wifi coverage really well IMO.

Re: What have you just bought?

Yeah that is a bloody good deal. Only issue for me is charging as I do not do heights so going up a ladder to fetch the battery is a no from me so I went for the Ring Floodlight Cam Prime day. That alone cost me £129

Re: What have you just bought?

Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 128gb as it's on offer at £100 off and my current tablet is far too slow so treating myself, just hoping it doesn't drop in price further on Black Friday.

How and why is the term 'black friday' immune from all the racist crap filling the media lately?
