Wireless CCTV is one of the simplest ways of setting up a security system to protect your home, as you don't need to run cables from the recorder to the cameras. One thing that often catches people out, however, is that wireless CCTV still needs to connected to a power supply, so you're still usually left having to run cables through a wall or window. This innovative new Gamut battery-powered CCTV system is designed to solve this. The cameras use Lithium-Ion batteries, allowing a completely wire-free installation.
Each camera is fitted with a PIR sensor, so it can detect a moving subject's body heat in order to trigger recording. Passive Infrared means the camera uses very little power when it's "asleep". This helps save battery power in between use, allowing up to 6 months' monitoring on a single charge. Do note: the camera will only record when triggered, and it can perform up to 12 hours recorded footage in total. So on one battery charge, it can record in total for about 12 hours split over however many motion events that takes. For example, if the camera is recording 10 seconds of movement each time it is triggered, you could get, approximately, up to 7000 recordings from one battery.
Video is recorded in sharp, detail-packed 1080p, with 8m of night vision. It's even got a built-in speaker, allowing you to talk back to subjects through your mobile device.
Also included in the kit is a wireless recorder with a preinstalled 1TB HDD to store footage. The recorder connects to up to 6 cameras at a time, allowing you to expand the kit with up to two additional cameras at a later date. Connecting to your router lets you configure remote access, allowing you to view and control your cameras from a PC or mobile device.
Please note: As with all wireless transmissions, the range of the camera will vary depending on the layout and materials used in the building. Obstructions such as walls and windows between the camera and receiver will affect the wireless signal. The range can be significantly impacted by obstructions such as walls, and the effective operating range varies from 25 to 50 metres.
