The 8-Channel LH010 ECO BLACKBOX Series Security Camera System by Lorex features a 500GB DVR and eight day/night security cameras. It's designed for small business or home ownership needs.
It also features the ability to check your security system with a smartphone, tablet or remote PC. The CVC6930PK4B cameras are all-purpose weather-resistant IP66 rated. They offer true day/night operation using a built-in IR filter changeable mechanism. The cameras also switch to day/night mode when in low-light conditions and uses 18 semi-hidden IR LEDs to provide a night vision range of up to 40'. The IR LEDs do not glow red so that they are harder to see in the dark.
The DVR features 8 channels, one for each of the included cameras. It offers real time recording at 360 x 240 resolution. It also features RS485 support for PTZ cameras, instant mobile viewing on smartphones and tablets and instant email alerts with a snap shot attachment for alarm and trigger events.
In order to make connections easier, the unit also offers PC and Mac compatibility with Internet Explorer and Safari browsers, and includes a free Lorex DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name Service) for advanced remote connectivity. Lorex also provides their own Easy Connect Internet Setup Wizard. The 500GB SATA hard drive can hold more stored video thanks to the automatic H.264 compression. There's also a USB port for flash drive upgrades and backup, and the unit can be network connected via the RJ-45 10/100 base TX jack.

Comments about Lorex 8-Channel LH010 ECO BLACKBOX Series Security Camera System:
Quick install and easy operation. Some difficulties in setting up the internet access.
Being build in plastic and thin metal, the cameras are good for indoor use. The use outdoors should only be made in protected areas. Despite that, it worths the price, without a doubt.

Comments about Lorex 8-Channel LH010 ECO BLACKBOX Series Security Camera System:
This system is easy to set up despite the wires, connects easily and everything works right out of the box. Pretty great up to the point when you .... try to figure out how to organize the screen, how to view remotely from home or on a mobile device and keep the screen set up the way you set it up when you left the night before, as in it changes the on-screen camera configuration all by itself overnight. I've gone through the manual several times and still can't figure it out; however, in full disclosure I have not called their customer support yet because it so often takes so long to get through to techs and get the problem solved (with other companies). While otherwise this system would get five stars, this statement in the advertising chatter is just not true: Easy System Navigation: Intuitive menu options with simple icons allow for fast and efficient DVR programming.

Comments about Lorex 8-Channel LH010 ECO BLACKBOX Series Security Camera System:
I couldn't be happier with it. The IR mode is automatic and works great. It's easy to install, (if you don't fall off a 12 foot ladder like I did). Good product, great price.
