cameras are genies vandal domes, and the pirs are connected to back of dvr.

Is the DVR suited to loft installation? Not sure I'd be happy with it in there.

Nice job Batts. Need to get me a cctv camera set up at my house as some little scroats broke my outside light last sat night. GF did suggest making it live but I thoght that would be difficult to defend as being accidental when it killed someone.

the area where the dvr is installed has no loft insulation near it, the big roll that is on the other side at the back hs since been rolled out through the other loft that joins that one, thats whre the customer wanted the dvr installing as he wants to make it as difficult to get to if he gets broken into which is understandable.

Think I'd have just stuck a decent DVR in rather than putting in PIR's all round the place. I'm sure those who don't install CCTV think it looks great.

what is the white box? psu ?

and why so many white cables? 1 to pir, 1 to camera?

you can get coax or video cable with power pair attached

the reason theres so many cables is because the one cable powers camera, and the other powers pir and brings alarm signal back to dvr

Pretty much. Wouldn't be so bad if it was tidily installed. I'd refuse to pay anyone who did an install like that for me.

badger - is that some major drug dealers place? what does he need all that security for. Reminds me of Scarface (the film) heavy security.
