Allows me to keep an eye out from 2500 miles away

My purchase several months ago of my Night Owl outdoor camera has allowed me to reliably keep an eye on my property far away, sending me alerts whenever anyone or any vehicle approaches my house, rendering a perfect video that it will save for me. Even the batteries have lasted for 5 months so far. Amazing! Anytime I want to log in to the app I can see what’s going on there. I’m buying several more.
