Just over your budget, but a good brand.

I think the issue with the cheaper ones is that unless they have some sort of built in storage, they are only useful when you're actually watching them, if you follow.

Thanks chaps for the links it would be nice if any members have some experience of the cheapo cctv’s. Yes chuck the storage did pass my mind. The old iPad does have a good memory and if the clips only record footage when motion is detected then it will be suffice. MY14 Kahn Converted Dynamic - Fuji White Ebony/Pimento Interior

The thing with CCTV I find is that motion detection is rubbish unless you like deer, dogs , foxes , bin men, the postie, jehovas witness etc . Anything and everything can trigger it, and even with quality IR cameras with built in illuminators identification is pretty dodgy for evidential purposes unless you have extra IR illuminator lamps . We just run our cameras 24/7 and as others have said record everything , but with the motion event markers on the recorder turned off.

Unless I'm mistaken, the camera won't record to the iPad automatically. Normally these things have a record button in the app WHILE you're watching, so you can record or take a snapshot of what you're watching live, but they won't do it in a way that say it was triggered while you were asleep, it wouldn't record the triggering footage to the iPad for you to watch in the morning. Your iPad would fill up stupidly quickly if it did that.

Cheers Julels I’ve got this for £120 all in brand new boxed. Just waiting on delivery yes it was more than I planned to spend but it records on iCloud for 7 days which is more than enough. I’ll update this thread with feedback over time. It’s relativley easy just install the camera and it’s a WiFi connection no wires to router.
