Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of SVAT CVQ1000 Color Quad Security System with 4 Day/Night Cameras and Remote
Customer Review: Excellent choice of cameras
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this set so I could post the cameras at my front door, garage driveway, and behind my home. I am able to view my entire driveway out to the road with one camera. The color is decent but not exactly TV quality or anything, but my main concern was just to be able to see. It works well at night but you will see an almost black screen until a person walks up. You shouldn't expect to be able to pick out bushes, fixtures, etc. I was pleased with the night vision. My only complaint is that the cords are not very long and each extra cord is about $16. You can't splice them because they have special connectors on each end. The cameras hook up easily to the console, which you can then plug into your TV, DVR, etc. I like that the cameras will set off an audio alarm if it detects movement. It's good for knowing when someone is coming to your door. All in all, I'm pleased with this product.Customer Review: Great buy
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this system over wireless systems because I'd heard an awful lot about poor reception , and interference . I installed this over a period of a couple days , running the wiring through my attic.I have two cameras inside and two out. I also hooked it up to two different monitors that I had.I got the splitter at Radioshack. After it was all done and hooked up I was really impressed with it's clearity. It's remarkable. I have had it up for a month now with no problems.I emailed tech support asking about an adjustment in setting up the cameras and I got an immediate response to my question. It's even clear at night.I can see what's going on in all parts of my house.Customer Review: Great product
Summary: 5 Stars
For the money you could not find a better system, it has features of a system costing hundreds of dollars more. Very easy set up. Clear picture.
This system is used for a handicapped person to see what going on outside and to give peace of mind. Great.

Great Product. Easy to Install. Replaced a 5 year old system with the new system.Customer Review: The ultiamte detailed review 4 Stars
Everything below this is last years review! I take back all I said and am very unhappy with the product. The whole system didint make it a whole year. first it was the power supply. Replaced by svat for free. Then a cord went out and caused the internal alarm to constantly go beep beep very loud and you cant turn it off. Now my dvr is gone bad and has while lines running throughout and the 4 box image is turned on me as well. I was happy for about 6 months as you can see below.
This is the ultimate security system for the price. There is so much better out there but if your a simple person looking for DECENT picture quality then its for you. It is very high speen meaning whats on the screen is happening at that exact moment. No lagging images. I am a simple man in a small house 2 bedroom 1 bath so I had plenty of cables. Wanted to run the wires under the house but fear of spiders was to great and was forced to run wires along the edge of house. Put 2 cams on front door. One for face and one to see the back of the person incase something is bein held behind there back if you follow me. One on the back door and one on the drive way. The entrance cams work good in pitch black but the cam for the driveway not so. I can barley see my black car thats 25 ft away. I can only see the rims so will have to get a motion sensor light.In the daylight I can see perfectly the whole driveway. The infa red is ok and I am pleased. Here is a detailed list of negatives and positives about this system
Negatives
-Infa red only works to a couple feet!
-Color quality is poor. Its not like looking in th the computer screen your looking at now. Its color but VERY DULL. Only shows brights
-Remote is cheap but works fine. GREAT- I wanted to save money and did not want anything from outer space but maybee not for you
-The mounts work great but could be better designed. Anyone can use it and anyone with a BRAIN will have no problem.
-Running wires. Everone hates running wires.... but the WIRELESS system I had before was 100 dollars cheaper and could not get a clear image NO matter where i put the reciver so wires are a NESSASARY EVIL for decent picture quality.
POSITIVES
-QUAD image on screen. Un beatable to see all 4 cameras at once.
- plenty of wire for a SMALL country style house.
-Dropped cameras during instalation and they took the beating well.
-Easy to set up time and date on screen and reciver to TV
-Great packaging. Arrived perfectly safe and sound.
-No lagging images.
- Affordable for simple people who dont need a terminator system. People who just want to see whos at the door or that there door is closed and secure if they hear a noise in the house.
Read other peoples reviews if you havent. I did and they said to dry run system. Great advise. I knew when I mounted a cam that that was exactly where i wanted it to be. Test before drilling and hanging anything.. Recomend testing at night because during the day all cams will have perfect image but at night maybee not.
4 stars only because I wantted intense color quality. Order it! Its a tool and does its job well but you will see what I mean. YOU WILL BE HAPPY but will wish it had a little better color quality. Its not the same images you see with your eyes. Its like looking through plastic. Slightly off but still color.
