Great picture quality with lots of recording options

I was looking for a security camera system which (i) didn’t need to have batteries charged, (ii) wasn’t storing camera data on a third party storage facility, and (iii) didn’t rely on Wi-Fi connectivity. The RLK8-800D4 provides all of that.Pros:- Plug and play simplicity- Good quality cameras with good range of adjustment and field of view- Waterproof covers for the ethernet connections- Apps for phones, computers and tablets plus a built-in web server interface- Lots of flexibility in what and how you record, with many options for storage, notifications etc.- Easy to export and download local copies of high quality 4K footage with optional audioCons:- The various apps all differ in what they allow you to do and use inconsistent terminology (e.g. High or Low image quality is also called Clear or Fluent)- The web interface doesn’t scale well on phones- The fixed camera tails are rather unwieldy- The cameras cannot be locked in position and can thus easily be re-adjusted by anyone unless you glue them in position- No easy way to scrub through playback footage other than varying the speed of replay up to 16xThe unit is initially set to record 24/7 constantly which will fill up the 1TB hard drive in about a week – this is ā€œtimerā€ mode. You can unset this and use ā€œalarmā€ mode instead which only records detected motion (along with a configurable pre and post motion buffer period) which should give months of recording before starting to overwrite the disk.The dome cameras can be installed vertically or horizontally – I have mine all fixed vertically to brick walls. There is enough lateral and vertical movement and field of view to capture footage of the house doors below the cameras on the same vertical plane (see my photos). The cameras have fixed non-removeable tails about 60cm long which are 20mm thick at the widest point. You can drill directly behind the camera to pass the tail the through the wall and thus hide the tail and all the wiring completely. You will need a 25mm hole and 25mm round PVC conduit to allow the tail to pass through a standard 30 cm cavity wall. The tail can then be easily connected to the ethernet cable inside the house. I recommend using the supplied protectors which make the ethernet connection much less liable to be pulled apart. These are fitted over the ethernet cable terminations before you plug them into the tails. They use rubber sealing washers and a split rubber grommet and therefore do not require the cables to be cut or re-terminated.The computer and phone apps work fine but take some getting used to. By default they use Reolink's remote servers to give you access to the system wherever you are via an automated UID login and Reolink's private protocol. You can disable this by turning off the UID in the advanced networks settings (which kills the apps) and instead just use the control unit's web interface. This is accessed on your local network by entering the control unit IP address into your browser. The web interface lets you store the unit in a non-accessible location without an attached monitor and administer it from a browser on a computer on your LAN. It seem to have all the facilities of the local control unit app, including renaming the cameras and formatting the hard drive, neither of which are possible on the computer and phone apps. You can of course also expose the web interface to the internet if you use a dynamic DNS service and port forward it externally. You can even install a proper TLS cert via the web interface - I used the one provided by NO-IP as part of their DDNS service (just be sure to create a PEM cert with the full chain embedded, named as a .pem file with the the private key named as a .key file). The only downside is that the web interface is designed for computer or tablet screen access and scales poorly on phones (the camera images get badly stretched).On the whole I am very pleased with the system. I hope to use it in ā€œset and forgetā€ mode for many years.

It is really very easily to install, no technical knowledge needed.

My old CCTV professionally installed about 8 years ago decided to stop working. Faced with replacing I was hesitant in buying a kit as I’d seen the complicated setup of the software on the old system by a trained engineer. I needn’t have been the setup of this system is superb, completely idiot proof. Load the smartphone app, run it, scan the QR code and hey presto you’re there. Log onto a PC use the password created and again, hassle free.Fortunately the old system was an NVR so I was able to make use of existing professional cabling and the weatherproofing caps were identical. The mounting brackets don’t lock the camera, goes on with a light twist hence comes off in similar fashion. This needs redesigning it is totally ridiculous, move the camera for an adjustment and the camera comes off in your hand. Four cameras up and positioned in just 2-3 hours.The app I found a little over complicated and descriptions in translated English which I now understand why some people give poor reviews on quality. Changing the ā€œClear and fluentā€ settings will satisfy your image quality issues. I found I couldn’t watch remotely on my smartphone by default. Hidden in the trouble shooting an instant remedy, UID in the Network settings only found on the PC not the smartphone. It defaults to recording everything 24/7 and it does seem over complicated to set up for home alarm use. I did it in the end, the way you can set it to give choice to what you want to capture, all, people,vehicle and animals is terrific but that translated English doesn’t help. The same with playback, it’s unique and takes time to fully understand. Once it is understood by you it is very easy.The quality of image is outstanding and setup is so easy it exceeds 5 stars so despite the issues I had with the app I have no qualms in thoroughly recommending it.I will be adding two more cameras and probably add a doorbell when my heavily increased annual Ring subscription comes to an end.

Good Quality Product

I’m a fan of Reolink products. My experience of their products has been really good from start to after sales. They never let you down. My system has been working for 3 years. I bought this one for another property. It was quick to install and good value for money.

A big let down in quality and reliability

What is the most important feature on a cctv system? Its reliability and in the case of this system is a big problem. I have spend £800 in buying this system with added cameras and water proof housings.Also selling a 8 way 8K NVR system with only 2GB hard drive space is a joke.The install was on top of that.It worked ok for 4 months and then started to develop faults freezing and the nvr crashing. The windows monitoring software also freezes nearly daily and needs a reboot of the reolink software. Now the whole NVR keeps crashing without booting back up staying stuck on the main Reolink logo screen. On reolink's website it states that it could be several reason and I tried them all from disconnecting the hard drive and cameras then rebooting, to USB stick download of and install of newer firmware. Got it to work again once but it did not last long until it crashed again. If reolink should read this "reliability, install and forget is the most important feature". In my opinion it is worse then Swann cctv reliability wise (remote monitoring and windows software is a bit better but not much then swann).It still falls short of trust it to monitor you property.Companies are only interested in selling you new equipment but do not like support it and the same can be said about installers. All they want you to do is buy a new system even if the fault is just simple.Back to the drawing board.P.S. if something works stop sending updates for it to work better because it never really works. I think updates are only designed to slow everything down and cause the systems to crash.I can't recommend this reolink system.
