A newbie from the UK

Hi everyone, this forum has been extremely valuable when researching a setup for my home CCTV. Thank you!

I had my car stolen so wanted to get something installed as soon as possible, I had actually been looking at some kits the week before but never pulled the trigger. I nearly purchased a kit which had bad reviews on here but I've now sourced a used Hikvision system which I'll be installing this weekend

I look forward to getting it installed and coming back on here for further configuration advice!

Welcome to the forum!
Good luck with your install, hopefully it will provide a deterrent going forward.

Welcome Curley89,

It's easy to get swamped with information here, so I wanted to share some notes with you

Please check out @giomania 's notes:

I have also made which are a summary of a lot of the reading I've been doing here,:
Looking for some advice and direction!

Have fun joining us here.
