Can you buy the full system or is it cheaper to get all the bits separate? What kinds of prices are we taking for 2 or 3 infra red cameras, a hard drive to record and leads, software separate as compared to an all in one package?

DSJ

Is this the phone that the police use? It was featured on the 'Crimewatch Roadshow' last week.

I didn't see it dsj but from what i've understood they're called ip cctv after a google search and you can use any android or iphone but you need the cctv cams, some kind of hardrive to record the footage and down load software to marry the cctv to to the internet and then onto your phone, you can then view whats happening in and around your home from anywhere in the world on your mobile phone/tablet or pc, great stuff and peace of mind especially in this day and age

Humbersloop fitting hingebolts will not tell be who was around my place at night time or when i wasn't there however an ip cctv setup would. Needless to say the doors and windows will also be extremely secure.

why bother knowing who?

This unit from Maplin will do what you want, but my understanding is that to allow you to access the live images on a mobile, it must be connected to a PC that has internet access. I could be wrong – it might be worth calling into Maplin and asking for a demo/more details.

razor wire too........nice to trace the blood marks to the local hospital after they try and cross it. Mines on the inside work nicely too. Give Camp Bastion is closing down, there will be plenty of both going cheap.

and a dna trace from the blood too, natch?

Bingo, obvs, totes amazeballs, so OP much cheaper to get all the bits //separate//

DTCwordfan

yeah don't integrate them, much more fun to assemble and more unpredictable for the incoming baddie.......

water and electricity together work well.........

You can get a webcam that has surveillance software with it for under £20. just plug it into a laptop or 2nd hand desktop and with the aid of a few IR triggered floodlamps all will be revealed.....it worked for me.
Floodlamp comes on and laptop starts recording for however long you set it. During the day any movement switches it on. The video files are saved to the hard drive with date and time overlay. Simple and foolproof. If you need a usb cable over 5 metres you can get a usb booster cable extension which will add another 5 metres for about £10
