A tiny bit of info on my stuff...
I use the "X-10" cams & motion detectors. When someone breaks the perimeter on my property line, the X-10 system turns on the VCR in record mode, and sounds a chime in the Master Bedroom & Kitchen. I can switch on the TV and see who is roaming about, and it is on tape, in the vcr hidden in between the ground-level floor joists in the basement.
My cams are the 1 or 2 Lux (don't remeber the specs right now) very low-light B&W models. The city street lights are plenty to give a crisp picture.
