Hey guys!
Just wondering if anybody has any recommendations for a home security system. We're going to be renting out a room in the new year via airbnb (which means lots of random people probably entering the house) and I live on a road with a school and had a car scratched outside the garage by an idiot parent that can't drive, plus my mx5 is outside the garage and the project spitfire + lots of tools in the garage.
So, A few requirements.... needs to be wireless and 2 cameras, needs to record to an HDD or maybe cloud storage. Night camera isn't a big issue as there is a PIR security light too. An app to view the feed would be nice too,
One camera needs to outside the garage, which is at the back of the garden. Garage has power and wifi, via a powerline wifi extender. The other camera needs to be at the front of the house, which is a fair distance away.
Help!
Thanks

Have a look at Techmoan for his reviews. This one seems to fit the bill assuming you can power the hub. Wasn't sure if you could power the camera or need battery:
I personally haven't had any experience so will leave others to comment further.

It definitely ticks most boxes, however, I'd prefer hard wired power. The other half is a sparky so no issues wiring stuff up!

My father has a good system, it comes with two cameras, night vision etc and has a pretty good app to use it. Records to an internal drive and you can make backups onto a usb stick.
It's not wireless though, so that probably scuppers it.
Swanlink I think is the company that make it. Think it cost him just over 100 and he's added in a couple of extra cameras since.
