The system that I have now is fully expanded to 12 motion/color video cameras with auto zoom and it is maxed out. This system is direct link to our server instead of a VCR but is also ran through a DVR here. If you are on our property or even remotely close it will pan and zoom in on what ever is in motion.

I am looking for a complete new system close to this one but expandable to 16 cameras or more so I can add a few extras inside the shops which only have 1 each now but I can't without disabling one of the others that cover our property. It must be capable of DVR and uploading to the server in real time with motion, pan/scan, auto zoom/focus in color with night view.

Anyone have any ideas or suggestions? Oh and I don't want any red lights on them. Just wouldn't make sense to me for anyone to know that they are on live feed or it would defeat the purpose. :)

To protect my pot plants! Ha Ha JK...

Actually in case anyone ever comes to steal anything I would hate to miss seeing my dogs eat their azz. Right now you can't get near our property without being on my server in full color and motion pan/scan but I want a few extra for inside the shops just for extra security.

I honestly don't deal drugs but fascinated with technology and the system I have now is freaking awesome but want a few in the shops as well.

You can't trust anyone now a days man, haven't you figured that out yet? :)

Not too shabby compared to what I was looking at.
Costco: http://www.costco.com/Browse/Product.aspx?Prodid=11216992&search=security&Sp=S&Mo=68&cm_re=1_en-_-Top_Left_Nav-_-Top_search&lang=en-US&Nr=P_CatalogName:BC&Ns=P_Price|1||P_SignDesc1&N=5000043&whse=BC&Dx=mode+matchallpartial&Ntk=Text_Search&Dr=P_CatalogName:BC&Ne=4000000&D=security&Ntt=security&No=0&Ntx=mode+matchallpartial&Nty=1&topnav=&s=1

What I had in mind:http://www.surveillance-video.com/alldighigspe.html
With all the upgrades I was looking @ $9,700. With the Costco system and all the upgrades it will be closer to $5,800.

Now I just have to compare the camera quality and night vision.

Thanks for the link. I didn't even know that Costco carried stuff like this.

I have caught several people trying to get gas from our tanks not knowing the code and standing out there entering a million codes for an hour at a time trying to steal gas from our tank.

I have also caught what I thought was friends looking through a few of our cars. Not taking anything but being very nosy and up to no good.

Kinda amusing finding out who you can and can't trust. I was really shocked at a few of them thinking that I could trust them with anything and finding out that they were low life common thief's.

I sent a few of them a copy of the video with a nice note telling them to stay the "F" off my property with no response of course. :)

No keypad needed. The dogs will greet you just fine when we don't have them locked up. Remember the puppies? Their parents are out roaming the property now. :)
