    Hi Guys,

    I'm looking to get a CCTV system for my house. I was thinking 2 cameras (1 front, 1 back) connecting to DVR. I saw this on Maplins and looks very resonable. Anyone here have this or use Swann systems?

    http://www.maplin.co.uk/500gb-2-camera-4-channel-cctv-system-with-internet-and-smartphone-viewing-636713

    The free app allowing you to watch the live stream would be very helpful.

    Does anyone know if the cameras have a solid/flashing light at all times or only when recording? I would like it to be a detterent.

    Thanks for any advice!

    Not great IMO.
    You will get better value from some of the suppliers here.
    EyespyCCTV have some good deals on kits .
