{"product_id":"hilook-4-channel-essd-dvr-330gb","title":"HiLook 4 Channel DVR with Built-in 330GB eSSD Storage","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe HiLook DVR-E04G-B is the HiLook 4 channel eSSD DVR: its 330GB of storage is built in at the factory, so there is no hard drive to buy or fit, and 300GB of it is usable for recordings. There is also no hard drive bay, which means the storage is fixed and cannot be added to or swapped later. It records four HD coax cameras plus one IP camera in 1080p Lite with H.265 Pro compression, takes sound over the coax, and draws 5.4W or less. Alectra supplies the recorder only.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat's in the box\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x HiLook DVR-E04G-B 4 channel DVR with built-in 330GB eSSD (300GB usable)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x 12V DC power adapter for the DVR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eCameras, cable, the camera power supply and the screen are bought separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBuilt-in eSSD or a hard drive?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis recorder suits a smaller system where you want it recording without buying a drive. The trade-off is fixed storage: 300GB usable, with no bay to add more. If you would rather choose your own drive, the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/hilook-4-channel-turbo-hd-dvr\"\u003eHiLook 4 channel Turbo HD DVR\u003c\/a\u003e ships without one and takes a single SATA hard drive of up to 4TB. For more cameras, the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/hilook-8-channel-essd-dvr-512gb\"\u003e8 channel DVR with 512GB eSSD\u003c\/a\u003e and the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/hilook-16-channel-essd-dvr-1tb\"\u003e16 channel DVR with 1TB eSSD\u003c\/a\u003e work the same way, and the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/hilook-8-channel-turbo-hd-dvr\"\u003e8 channel Turbo HD DVR\u003c\/a\u003e takes a hard drive. This is also the recorder in the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/4-channel-advanced-cctv-camera-kit\"\u003eHiLook 4 channel CCTV kit\u003c\/a\u003e, which adds four 2MP bullet cameras, a Hikvision power supply, 100m of RG59 cable and the connectors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eRecording and storage\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRecordings are saved in 1080p Lite, HiLook's reduced 1080p mode, at 15 frames a second by default and up to 25 on a PAL system. H.265 Pro compression keeps the files small. How many days fit on the 300GB depends on how many cameras are connected, the frame rate and how much movement each camera sees, so we do not quote a fixed number. Recording on motion only, instead of all the time, makes the storage last longer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCameras, sound and smart detection\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe four coax inputs take HD TVI, AHD and CVI cameras at 1080p or 720p, and analogue (CVBS) cameras, so the HiLook Turbo HD range plugs straight in: the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/hilook-2mp-bullet-camera\"\u003eHiLook 2MP bullet\u003c\/a\u003e, the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/hilook-2mp-full-colour-vu-bullet-camera\"\u003eColorVu bullet\u003c\/a\u003e and the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/hilook-2mp-dome-camera\"\u003eindoor turret dome\u003c\/a\u003e. It also takes one IP camera, up to 1080p, over the network. Sound from a camera with a mic, such as the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/hilook-2mp-hybrid-dual-light-camera\"\u003eHiLook dual light bullet\u003c\/a\u003e, comes down the coax on all four channels. Audio recording is off by default, so switch it on in the recording settings. Motion Detection 2.0 sorts people and vehicles from other movement to cut down on false alarms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWiring, power and viewing\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRun \u003ca href=\"\/products\/rg59-cctv-cable-with-power-pair-100-m\"\u003eRG59 cable with a power pair\u003c\/a\u003e to each camera with \u003ca href=\"\/products\/bnc-connector-crimp-type-for-rg59-2x-in-a-pack\"\u003eBNC crimp connectors\u003c\/a\u003e on the video, and power the cameras from a \u003ca href=\"\/products\/hikvision-4-channel-cctv-power-supply\"\u003eHikvision 4 channel CCTV power supply\u003c\/a\u003e. The recorder itself runs on 12V DC at 1A from the power adapter in the box and draws 5.4W or less, about a third of the 16W HiLook gives for the 4 channel Turbo HD DVR without its drive. Connect a monitor or TV to the HDMI or VGA output, and the RJ45 port to your router with a \u003ca href=\"\/products\/network-cable-10m-cat6\"\u003eCAT6 network cable\u003c\/a\u003e for phone app viewing.
