If you're after it as night security, it works great. I tested this in the back garden. I was so impressed. The video quality is excellent. In the dark, it sees me behind the kid's trampoline (when I get up!) before you could even see it with the eye (I even did it twice because I couldn't believe it!). I am very impressed. Also picked up my 4 year old no problem. I also own a K&F concept cam on the front, you can see how this newer version has evolved. With the older camera, even with the most recent firmware, you can only set it to high or low sensitivity (I'll contact K&F and see if something is possible with that), while the new camera has 10 sensitivity levels. I set it to 10 and cats are walking around the garden and it was only triggered by human movement which is a bonus. You can also set intervals between triggering. I'm really happy with it. I recommend this to my father. Also if K&F Concept could develop something to prevent spiders from forming webs over my cameras it would be appreciated! To update. I liked the first one so much I bought a second. The one in the garden that literally faces south has never had to be charged.
