so whats the score then im i ok using this or not.

You can use audio if the data controller deems it suitable for your circumstances.

If you are the data controller then it's done to you. :wink:

I have audio and I wouldn't be without it.

How is the mirrored cctv system getting on?

Just a couple of questions.

1, Are the cameras any good during the night?

2, How long can 32GB card record for?

3, How long in length is the power cable?

4, Can the 2nd camera be used to record passengers on the backseat of the car?

5, Will the microphone be good enough to pick up a conversation of someone sat on the backseat with the radio on or off?

1 not really

2 about 50 hrs

3 2 meters

4 dont need to

5 just with radio off

over all im ok with it but not sure what camera will be good at night this one is enough,when car inside light is on it shows very well.it has got me out of a potential company fine when a complaint about me being a very rude man was made.after listening to the customer lies through our directors i showed them the video of said job and it showed i did nothing wrong.

Install one of these cheapo systems and then have a sticker saying "Live feed beamed to office" or something to that effect!!!

It would probably deter the person thinking of ripping it off and stomping on the sdcards if they their beam is being beamed elsewhere where another human is looking at them!!!


you have HUMANS in your base?
