You need a box for the camera to communicate. I placed the camera behind a double glazed window, it detects movement more than 20m without problems. Night vision is just as effective, conclusive test in the garage but not behind the glass because the LEDs are reflected. Since outdoor lighting I have a motion detection, the camera is set permanently in night color mode. Warning to configure alerts by email mailings. By setting an alert every 30 seconds, minimum, I got "blacklisted" by my operator. Being considered as a spammer, no way to send anything. Now I have set sending pictures every 5 minutes (3 before the start and after 3) and that's enough to know that comes prowling. It only takes one outlet and voila. I put a Micro SD card into the slot, so I have all my saved recordings, sorted by date, time and date. Besides being a deterrent, it is effective for a reasonable price.
