Here is a link to their website: https://www.lorextechnology.com/

The website has many choices, did you go with wireless? Could you possibly link to the exact 2 camera system you chose?

My exact model was discontinued and replaced with this one: https://www.lorextechnology.com/sec...em-with-2-wireless-security-cameras/LW42W-1-p

But it appears to be out of stock. Mine is wireless, as in the signal. The cameras themselves need a power source.

Thanks you, that helps.

Does anyone know if the red light emitted for night vision on the camera bothers the chickens? Do they see the red light?

I think the red light does NOT disturb them.

It hasn't bothered mine, been under a camera with night vision since day 3 when I got them. They will be 20 weeks old Wednesday.

I have cameras in and around the coop - wireless in house monitors and an IP camera. The IR doesn't bother them, but they can tell when I turn on a monitor and glare at me

That is why I asked. You are right @sunflour, they must know because they do GLARE. and it's not a nice glare it's a WHAT THE FREAK YOU WANT glare. I mean it hasn't deterred me from staring

I usually leave my infrared off on my coop cam, but yes, they do GLARE - LOL when I take a peak

Run cam I do turn to nightvision - usually nothing interesting, but 1 time their was a possum climbing the hardware cloth Haha! I ran out knocked him off with a broom, but he scurried under the wood pile before I could do him in Got him the next night though. I know that's not what everyone does, but climb my walls, you've crossed the line buddy
