Google Assistant is designed to make your life easier. It’s always important to have a good two-way talk feature. For instance, you can give a delivery driver instructions on where to leave your packages, and even tell a would-be burglar to scram. Night Owl cameras can capture audio, but you can also use certain models as an intercom of sorts. Also, the DVR’s 1080p HD video was clear enough to make out details when angled just right. The NVR can deliver 4K Ultra HD playback, but be warned, it’s a lot more expensive. I prefer Night Owl’s DVR over their NVR since you can still access remote live viewing when you plug in the Ethernet cable. Overview of Night Owl’s Features and Tech DVR and NVR While the cameras aren’t as easy to install as Blink’s wire-free cameras, in my experience, it was easy enough. If you’re intimidated by DIY projects, you’ll like Night Owl. It’s also worth mentioning that hiding wires on the wired cams was the most time-consuming part. Thankfully, each side is labeled with its appropriate home: “to camera” or “to DVR or NVR.” I recommend connecting the cameras and making sure there’s a signal before mounting them. Once the DVR is connected, you’ll then connect the BNC cables. The wired options were only slightly more complicated, but watching Night Owl’s setup video helped. If you don’t hear the camera say it’s in pairing mode when you plug it in, just press the reset button until it says “resetting.” And adding the camera to your NVR is no sweat its built-in Wi-Fi quickly found the new camera and added it to an empty channel since everything runs over Wi-Fi. All I had to do was plug in the power adapter to hear that the camera was in pairing mode. ![]() Learn about more devices out there with hassle-free installation in our roundup of the best wireless cameras.Īs far as setup goes, Night Owl wireless security cameras are simple, but you’ll want to follow their quick online setup guide just to be sure.
