    I need advice on surveillance camera

    I know I don't post on here much. But I was seeing If anyone had any advice or suggestions on cameras. My shed was broken into and the thrift stole my saw. Any help would be very appreciative. I'm really wanting a wireless one that I can view from my phone if needed. Thank you

    x10 all the way - Cameras - I used their cameras to keep an eye on a friends wood shop when I was living in FL. Never had an issue and the remote watching apps are endless.

    I bought
    Defender, Digital Wireless DVR Security System with 7 in. LCD Monitor, SD Card Recording and 2 Long Range Night Vision Cams, HDT301-PX011 at The Home Depot - Tablet

    For the price and options it seems to be a great deal . If you have a second camera . Put it in your driveway so you can get tag numbers . Night vision is mandatory

    Check Logan's link , they can be viewed on a android device . Good for the always mobile scrapper . Hope this is the last time your stolen from . Deer cameras work in a pinch and can be hidden well .

    i use a combo of 14 wireless cameras for inside and out for all angles. they are very tiny and hide well with some motion activated all of which are great in low light but i also have a huge flood that is inside my garage that's motion activated as well to scare the crap out of them at night. some of the ones i have use a simple battery pack that last awhile and micro sd cards which have a 32gb cap so change them out on a schedule since i get so many in with phones and such its not expensive.
    also have a few other silent goodies to alert me as well which with phone apps for this stuff now its awesome

    Yep - the cameras I use now are those pinhole cameras japan calls spy cams as their designed to be mounted on a shoe or jacket or whatever, but mine are wired to a TV in the bedroom. One looks at the driveway, the other looks at the backyard. Their good for day stuff but I need to create some sort of IR filter for night use.
