Keeping an Eye on Things

Home security cameras come in various types and styles.

You can, for instance, opt for a complete home security camera system, with a black and white monitor and video recorder that tapes up to 96 hours of surveillance. The camera can be very small, one of the modern pinhole cameras that can remain hidden from the eyes of your intruder. These home security cameras are about the size of a quarter. This type of home security camera system is quite mobile, and has a 12 volt thirty day recorder that is only half the size of your everyday home use VCR. You can power this home security camera with a standard wall outlet, your car’s cigarette lighter or even a 12-volt battery if you’re in a remote location.

The recorder is the source for the power that runs the camera so a power outage elsewhere is not an issue. There is a date and time stamp on the home security camera’s recorder, which makes the tape usable in court as proof. On many of these portable home security cameras you also can choose an optional 9, 12 or 17 inch monitor should you want to set them up permanently at your resident or business location as a visible deterrent.

A less costly black and white monitor system of home security cameras is a 400-line system for a small office or retail location, or your small home (condo, apartment or small house.) These home security cameras are complete for a single location monitoring system and come with several VCR options. You can choose, for example, a 40-hour recorder in real time, or a 53-day time lapsing video recorder.

These home security cameras come with AC power supplies that are 24 volt, and 100 feet of video cabling. These home security cameras include a 9-inch monitor although you can opt to upgrade to a 12-inch monitor if you so desire.

For the subtler, hand held of home security cameras you might want to purchase a black and white video system that is not only camera but intercom as well. The camera in this home security system is only one third of an inch in size, and the monitor, a flat screen, is only four inches in diameter. What this handy little home security camera gem does is let you identify your home or office by sight, while you’re talking to her or him, having a conversation just as you would if you were on a regular telephone.

The best thing about these tiny little home security cameras and intercom combos is that your home or office visitor doesn’t know he or she is being seen.

If you want to opt for one of the top of the line home security cameras you can purchase a color monitor system with a very high-end resolution of 540 lines in a single camera. The video recorder that comes with this system has up to 40 hours of recording time. The color monitor is 14 inch and this home security camera system comes with a 24-volt power pack and 100 feet of video cable.
