Item was returned as Lorex support tech replied back after six days of waiting, and waiting a full hour on the phone with no response. The recording at night of things that move is blurry. If you need this camera for surveillance, at night, it is useless, even if the area has some light. Still objects look good in daylight or nighttime, but thieves happen to be on the move. So, at night, it is useless.

On the Positive side; I really like the deterrent features and the cameras appear to be robust. The two way talk and spot lights have worked well and all eight cameras have these features. It has been very simple to setup the basics and get it running. The system comes with a good warranty as well. Having the system in place gives my wife peace of mind. On the Negative side; I can not seem to get a manual for the LNK7000X NVR that the system came with. At first the link on the product page did not open to anything and now it opens to the manual for the LNK7000 even though it says it is for the LNK7000X. All thought it is close it is not the correct manual for the LNK7000X NVR. In addition I have been sent two incorrect PDFs and an incorrect hard copy of the manual. All for the LNK7000. I have also been having trouble with the push notifications. They worked great went I first got the system and after two days have been off and on since. Currently they sent a notification to my phone but do not post content on the app. I called Tech support and was told to try the Lorex Secure app instead of the Cirrus app that is listed for this system because of this. It is a newer system for Lorex and I have only had it for three weeks but it still appears to have a few bugs on the support side. If they can get these issues sorted out I would be over the top with the system and would give it a five star rating. It has features that I only see in wireless systems with the dependability of a wired system. As is I am somewhat disappointed but hopefully that will be short lived. It is not issues with the system it is issues with the product manual for the NVR and the mobile app. I would really hate to rethink my purchase because as I have stated I really like the system.

I purchased my Lorex system in early December from Adorama. Steve Chill was my salesman, he worked with me on details and info about my purchase. Shipping was free and with prompt delivery. I even had a followup from Steve to make sure everything was fine, which it was. My system is now installed and running and I am refining the details everyday. Thanks to Steve and Adorama for a great purchase experience !

I'm not quite as happy with this system as I was hoping to be. One drawback is the lack of an ability to backup footage real-time. I wanted to have all the footage store to a NAS in my fireproof safe in the unlikely event someone was to break in and steal the NVR or we have a fire. Not possible with this kit/NVR. I'll have to buy a PoE switch and run all the cameras to it rather than the NVR and then I can access the cameras directly and/or indirectly from the NAS to store my footage there.

Purchase of Lorex Security Camera System
By MIKE S.
I purchased my Lorex system in early December from Adorama. Steve Chill was my salesman, he worked with me on details and info about my purchase. Shipping was free and with prompt delivery. I even had a followup from Steve to make sure everything was fine, which it was. My system is now installed and running and I am refining the details everyday.

The next generation of security monitoring is here. With industry-leading 4K (8 megapixel) resolution, the LNK71082T8KXB security camera system from Lorex will bring a whole new level of detail to your security monitoring. It includes our outstanding 4K Ultra HD 8-channel LNK7108X2T network video recorder (NVR) and eight LKB384X 4K Active Deterrence Network Security Cameras. If you are looking to protect your home, small business or commercial property, this powerful security camera system will secure the things that matter most.
4K sharpness gets you the details you need
An 8MP image sensor at the core of this security camera is capable of recording a 4K pixel resolution of 3840 x 2160 at 15 frames-per-second (FPS). With 4x the amount of pixels as a 1080p HD security camera, this camera will not only provide you with incredibly sharp and vivid video, it will also allow for greater digital zooms while reviewing footage. This is because the higher number of pixels will keep distant details decipherable for longer as the digital zoom is applied.
Stop trespassers in their tracks with Active Deterrence
A super bright LED, a remotely triggered siren, and two-way audio make this security camera an extremely valuable asset to your IP security system. For example, the LED light can be customized to always be on or triggered by motion. You can also choose a strobe light setting, in addition to setting a schedule for when the deterrence LED should automate. The remote-triggered siren is also designed to stop trespassers right in their tracks. When motion is detected within the sensor range, the system sends an alert to your smartphone, allowing you to remotely access the camera and set off a loud siren to deter crime.
Listen-in Audio and Two-Way Talk
A built-in speaker and microphone allows for crystal-clear audio functionality. Listen-in audio recording will add a whole new dimension to your overall security monitoring, as it can provide additional details (like a voice) should an incident occur. This camera also has a speaker that allows you to communicate with others through the camera.
H.265 / HEVC encoding
This security camera is equipped with High-Efficiency Video Encoding (HEVC) or H.265 video compression. This encoding technology efficiently compresses file sizes. In fact, it can compress file sizes up to 50% more than files using the previous encoding technology (H.264), without any noticeable degradation in quality. HEVC encoding will also save you plenty of bandwidth while watching live or recorded video remotely.
Full-color video, even at night
There is usually an automatic shift from full color video to black and white when lighting conditions change at night. This is not the case for this security camera. It features our revolutionary Color Night Vision (CNV) technology, which will produce full-color video in low-light conditions, provide a further level of detail (the color of clothes or cars, for example), and add increased contrast for easier detection and recognition of people and objects
PoE plug-and-play installation
This 4K security camera system will be up and running in no time thanks to Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) technology. All that is required to connect each of your security cameras to your NVR is a single Cat5e ethernet cable run. This cable provides both power and video transmission up to 300 feet / 91m.
Lorex Cirrus keeps you connected
Our free Lorex Cirrus app makes your surveillance system accessible from most mobile devices. With this app, you will be able to see exactly what your cameras see, at any time, review recorded footage, and keep track of all motion activity using easy-to-navigate timelines. You can also customize motion-activated push notifications to be sent directly to your phone or tablet's home screen so you can always be in the know.
Lorex web client available
Lorex Client 13 gives you access to your security system and its settings over the Internet using a PC or Mac computer. With this software, you will be able to view live and recorded video, as well as save manual recordings and snapshots to your computer's hard drive. The software is available under the downloads section below.
All-weather security camera
An IP66 waterproof rating ensures safe outdoor installations. Furious winds, torrential downpours and snowstorms are no match for this rugged security camera. It will even continue to operate in freezing climates as low as -22 Degree F / -30 Degree C. So go ahead and place this security camera where you need it most.
Continuous, scheduled, and motion recording options
This NVR can record footage continuously, during scheduled times, or when movement is detected. These recording modes can be customized with each camera as well. A 5 second pre-recording function is also built-in for motion recordings. This means that you will never miss those first few vital moments of movement.
Don't miss a moment with smooth on-screen movement
The 8-megapixel image sensor within this security cameras can record a pixel resolution of 3840 x 2160 at 15 frames-per-second (FPS). Or choose to record your cameras at a real-time 30 FPS in 2K resolution. Ultimately, recording 30 frames-per-second will provide you with exceptionally smooth on-screen movement, and grant you with more frames to choose from when cycling through footage.
Rugged security-grade hard drive preinstalled
A hefty 2TB security grade hard drive (expandable up to 8TB) comes preinstalled within this NVR. This heavy-duty hard drive can reliably record weeks (even months) of footage without taking a break.
With or Without the Internet
Standalone camera systems do not need the internet to operate. However, an internet connection will be necessary if you wish to use a smartphone, tablet or computer to access features such as remote monitoring.
Connects directly to TVs and Monitors
Easily watch live video feeds or review video footage on most Monitors or HD TVs by using the included HDMI cable.
NVR Network Video Recorder
Security NVRs will connect to IP cameras using CAT5 network cables and will store pre-compressed video footage from IP cameras.
4K Ultra HD Resolution (4x1080p Full HD)
4K resolution offers four times the resolution of 1080p with approximately 4000 horizontal pixels, provides the maximum level of detail and clarity available.
24/7 100% Duty cycle hard drive pre-installed
The hard drives are designed to work in a security environment, including simultaneous recording & playback from various streams.
