Great System - True to the description.
(4 out of 5) by I. Brown on Jun 15, 2007 (Oakland, CA.)I needed an easy to use plug and play security camera system to monitor the outside of my home. I had it up and running minutes after I opened the box. The only thing to damper my excitement was that it did not come with the 9Volt battery needed to utlilize the wireless capability of the camrea. Check the SVAT website for a copy of the user instructions to see how easy it really is to use this system.
The overall image quality is excellent when there is good light, but at night or in low light it is hard to make out details. But for a beginner level system that is super easy to set up and use, this can't be beat.

Good, But could be better
(4 out of 5) by T. S. Lapp on Feb 13, 2008 (Portland, OR USA)This camera works fairly well. I wish it had a little better image. You can see cars real clear, but not the licence plate. I guess you get what you pay for if you try to go cheaper. The camera seems to be really durable and is nice and small. And it is extremly easy to hook up. It does't seem to interfere with our cordless phone, I was worried that it would. The longest distance that I could get it to work was probably about 100 feet. The Night vision isn't something to get all excited about. It does pick up reflective objects really well though. It's a good camera and all, but I wish I spent a little more money to be able to read the licence plate on a car.

nice
(4 out of 5) by Benjamin Schlick on Nov 10, 2007 (WI)works as specified, will drain a 9v battery in a matter of hours though, but thats expected because the camera consumes a lot of power; also the camera becomes quite hot after continuous operation, but does not seem to pose a problem.

Great Product for the Day Time, with a good price
(4 out of 5) by J. Cheung on Sep 22, 2008 (New York, NY USA)I needed something easy to install and wireless so I purchased the WSE201 and connected it to my 4 channel dvr in minutes. The product works fairly well during the day time for the price you pay for. The night vision works well only when the subject is close to the camera.
Also keep in mind if you want to connect multiple cameras to a DVR and want to record simultaneously you will need to have a receiver per camera. And if you don't want to spend that money you can have the receiver scan the cameras one at a time, making recording possible, but not simultaneously.

Cheap = Low Quality
(2 out of 5) by D. S. Fowler on May 12, 2008 (Ohio)These cameras work but are very low quality. The picture is fuzzy but you are able to see for the most part during the daytime. The nightvision does not work well at all, and none of the problems I have had are due to interference since I have my nanny cam receiver in the same location and get a chrystal clear picture with it.
