Wireless CCTV camera from Netto
I bought one today,they where supposed to be on the shelves Mon15th but
manufacturers never delivered in time and where postponed till to today 17th Thur. I must say they are decent quality all metal bodied and IR night time vision although I have to wait till dark to see if its worthy? Neat litle bullet shape for the camera shape and a small flat alluminium case for the reciever,it has 3 channels to apply an extra two cameras on the reciever. Now the big question... Quite expensive even for Netto's standard a wopping £40. |

You could be right. :-P Anyway its going bac tomorrow as its a pile of sh*te in the dark,the IR that muster in a circle around the lense put a ghosting effect on the image and the center focal point goes almost pitch black to the extent of it becoming useless. Sheeeesh! I can see Netto being unindated with huge returns. |

Sheeeesh! I can see Netto being unindated with huge returns. It's a warehousing operation. They will have that covered with their suppliers, or margins will be such that the returns can go directly to landfill. |

I got that from a market street trader who's forever buying Netto stuff cheaply. Last year? he bought a load of Netto routers and was flogging them for £5 each complete and any with missing external components £3. He must have got them for £2 each? |
