Manufacturer: Mace
Model: Mini 2.4GHz Color Camera / Rcvr
Category: Wireless Security Cameras

Purchase: This camera and receiver package ran me about $240 at one of those online security equipment dealers. I had been having a problem with neighborhood kids jumping in and out of our pool by leaping over the fence and decided to install a camera to at least try and get someone on video.

Likes: I really like the features. They include: Professional Grade High Sensitive Wireless Color Cameras using Sony Sensor. 100 Ft. Range, 3 Hour Rechargeable Battery Pack, with AC Adapter, Horizontal resolution: 330 horizontal lines, Pinhole lens F3.6mm, Minimum illumination: 2 lux at F2.0.

Dislikes: The 3 hour rechargeable battery pack doesn't seem to be giving me the full 3 hours. I've even gone to great lengths to fully drain the battery before doing a full charge. I'm thinking I get about 2-2 1/2 hours out of this battery.

Quality: Quality seems fine. Construction seems to be well enough to take indoor and outdoor elements.

Summary: Overall, a little on the pricey side these days, but overall a fine camera system. My only complaint is what I voiced earlier and that is regarding the battery charge time. I may send the battery back or try to replace it, though, as everything else works fine. Basically a good product.
