you're asking for 2 different things. Camera system is separate from the alarm system. For a good camera, best bang for the buck is Lorex and can be purchased at Costco. It will do everything you want and can be monitored from any smart phone anywhere in the world. For an alarm system, I use DSC Power 832. It's older but being an industrial system it should last forever. This also can be monitored through your cell phone. If the alarm trips, it will notify you.

cameras will have an operating temperature range.. yeah seriously

so be sure what you buy works in both the summer and winter

and note the colder it gets the worse the image can be before it stops working due to cold altogether

mostly summertime , we moved into a new area and we get along with the neighbours reaaly well , several hot rodders drag racers atv,ers hunters and fishing people in the area
We get a group of 2 to 6-8 what looks like younger high school kids some walking some riding bicycles start come as soon as school starts fri and sat nights anywhere from 9;30 ish to 11;30 ish . Always same direction , come down a side street , then down my street then onto another side street . They come back into swing asoon as school starts and some times 2 nights a week may , sometimes 1 to 4 weekends a month . Po Po are useless , trip wires and associated traps are apparently illegal . So I want to set up some cameras , they tell me with good or decent facial pictures , The police use social media and send those pics to the local high schools , simply because the principles and vice P,s all see these loser style kids on a daily basis . Police say a vice P or P can identify a hooligan student from just a side facial shot . ha ha
They come kick garage and front door , bang on door bell and front windows then run . Yell out stuff like Fin ****** get out of our town get out of our country , blah blah blah . I,m a WASP so they must be talking about my Old Lady , She,s a Trini . And these little bastards are hyped up on rc colas and dr pepper and run fast like lil bunny rabbits . my ultimate goal is just get them to stop and leave us alone . But the next step is 4 or 5 guys on atvs hidden waiting parked in shadows and wait , when they come and do their stuff , chase them down , from 4 different directions . catch one and make that one give up info on the others .

ya need a way to mark 'em so they can be identified

some sort of nozzle that sprays a semi permanent dye ...


I had the idea for stores and shops where they have the measuring stick stickers at the door

two cylinders of dye attached to the door frame with nozzles at short distances up the door frame
so when your perp goes through the door.. the cops can find them more easily

Some might find this CBC Marketplace story interesting especially if you have nanny cams. Make sure you change the default setting password. www.cbc.ca/marketplace/episodes/2018-2019/home-hack-how-safe-are-your-high-tech-security-devices
