 Can't go wrong for the price! June 10, 2007

I agree with the others here, the range at night is a bit limited if the area is in complete darkness but when one lives in the city that is usually not a problem. The wire from the camera terminates with a BNC connector but this cam will work with a standard TV. I suggest going to Radio Shack and get a BNC Female to Phono Plug Adapter
(Model: 278-250 | Catalog #: 278-250) along with a short cable with RCA male at one end and RCA female at the other end and you are good to go (Radio Shack also has this in a short length).
Ok, you have two of these great cam's and one TV, what are you going to do? I found a cheap way to automatically switch between up to 4 cams with the output of the switcher going to one TV. I found a Philips Automatic Video Selector and RF Modulator (MPN: PH61153) at WalMart (its not on their website you will have to go to the store) that, when set up correctly, will allow you to plug in up to four cam's and automatically cycle thru each input/cam every 5+ seconds (scan speed is adjustable). The PH61153 will skip any input that does not have something plugged into it so I can use it with just my two cams for now. The PH61153 was intended to automatically switch between video componets (DVD, VCR, DVR, etc) but for $24ish you can't go wrong. BTW: I have a second PH61153 and use it for its intended purpose of automatically switching between video componets.
You can't go wrong with this camera! I already have two and plan to get two more soon.

I had hoped to utilize the infrared features of this camera for night time security at my business. In the daytime, the color is good and the resolution is OK. At night I have found that the range is not as robust as specified and that the scenes are typically dark even though at fairly close range. This is a good low cost camera for fully or moderately lit locations.
 SPECO will not honor the product warranty November 19, 2007

I recently purchased this camera and to my surprise I discovered SPECO will not honor the warranty for any piece of their equipment purchased on-line. They only extend the warranty to distributors and according to their customer service organization; distributors don't and aren't allowed to sell Speco products on-line.
I wish Amazon would have posted this fact before they offered this item for sale.

Works absolutely as advertised. Night (Infrared) shots are not real bright but serve my purpose which is intruder detection.
