 I thought I had bought something special. September 6, 2010
Farmer
I was expecting to be "wowed" by this system. I was not. I was actually more wowed by the slingbox solo I bought to work in conjunction with this Lorex. Overall, for a system that is touted to be cutting edge (at least in its price bracket) more thought and creativity could have gone into it.
The FIRST and BIGGEST DISAPPOINTMENT, DRAWBACK and DISABILITY with this product is that you can only ever use one receiver/LCD display monitor. This is not good enough for the office setting where monitoring is desire by more than one person from differnent locations in the building at the same time. I tried to circumvent this drawback by buying the Solo Slingbox with the hope that while my receptionist monitors the cameras from her reception desk out front I could also monitor the cameras online on my laptop in my private office. This could not be done thanks to the fact that once you engage the AV feature on the Lorex (which is required to send the video feed to the slingbox and thus to the internet)the display on the Lorex LCD monitor is cancelled.
SECONDLY, one cannot totally mute the alarm sound when motion is detected so this noise is an irritant during business hours and during the night it will alert any intruder to the fact that there is some scurity system in place. Such intruder can then locate the Lorex and unplug depending on where you store it overnight.
THIRDLY, in motion detection record mode you cannot select different record times for individual cameras. I might set the record time for 15 seconds (which will be applied to all cameras) and a thief triggers the motion record at the door outside for camera 1. I quickly let the unsuspecting thief in thinking he is safe so he is inside within 5 minutes of triggering the motion record. Once he enters he immediately does something that I want to be recorded. However, camera 2 on the inside cannot begin recording until the 10 remaining seconds from camera 1 are completed.
FOURTHLY,there is a loud feedback noise whenever I engage the mic. This is so although I have the volume on the lowest and although the cameras are not near to the receiver.
FIFTHLY, if you're going wireless go all the way man! Having to plug in the cameras to an electrical outlet greatly restricts the flexibility of this system. Consideration should be given to using size "C" batteries.
SIXTHLY, I wonder whether the video illutrations in the ads were produced in some studio. What I see in reality on my display is no where near what is shown in the advertistments.
SEVENTHLY, although I have not tried it as a matter of theory it is probable that you're better off not using this outdoors. I say this because depite there being picture illustrations (eg page 59 of manual) of outdoor use the manual clearly states that the cameras should not come into contact with water (rain) or moisture. If you try to circumvent this by creating a housing you are met with the warning that the cameras should be properly ventilated. Any ventilation creates the risk of the camera being exposed to moisture so either way you might be trapped.
EIGHTLY, the screw heads could have been tougher. I wore out mine on my first installation. Admittedly, this is probably because I didn't drill any holes in the board but I have come across screws that could've better withstood forced screwing.
All in all this system is what it is. I didn't get what I didn't pay for. I think, however, that Lorex could have done a little more with this little gizmo!

Lorex LW2702 7-Inch LCD Quad Digital Wireless Surveillance System. Bought this surveillance system a week ago for $299.99. Installed it and it wasn't recording or picking up movement all the time, and it is not in color, more like black and white, the screensaver is in color. A couple of days later it rained (installed it on our garage) and both cameras quick working right, one filled up with water and the other the alarm kept going off with nothing in sight. called Lorex and all they said was, we should have had it under cover, which is not mentioned in instructions. These are the rudest customer service people ever, don't expect help from them. We were told to pay to ship it back and if they didn't think it was our fault. they would then decide to replace it. Lorex needs to get their customer service back in the US. If anyone asks I would NOT recommend buying anything from this company.
Great system, and I'm very happy. August 29, 2010

I gave it "one star", because it's the first place that I look, it's a good system. End of story.

Have called 3 times to their technical support line. Each time after 20 minutes on hold a very rude receptionist has taken my name and number and promised a call back in 1hr. No call has ever come. Not receiving recordings on one camera and now both not recording. Following page 30 motion recording instructions.
