I have an Arlo system too and really like it. The night vision picture is great, it's taken care of a few "problems" I used to have. With being so simple to set up, use and controlled from my phone... it's already paid for itself.

Now that you guys both have the system. Is there a certain one you recommend. Because they have a few packages.And different cameras... the reviews are pretty good and I have really good camera hanging locations to hang them...I will probably need 4 outside and one in side.

I would go with the Arlo Pro or the Arlo pro 2. As far as I know , the only difference between the two , is the resolution. I have the Arlo pro and am very satisfied with the video quality , but should any of my cameras go bad , I will replace them with a Pro 2 camera !

Posting this to give an idea of video/sound quality. There again , not trying to convince anyone that Arlo is "THE SYTEM" to spend your money on ,but it is very affordable. If I could afford a better ,hard wired system , that's what I would prefer !


By the way , we get some pretty damn funny videos from our post man , he loves to talk to himself !

This cracks me up. I just procured a demo camera for a month with built in mic, i decided I’m about to find out what our UPS/FedEx drivers think of us.

This guy is the highlight of our day , me and my wife just can't wait to see the next video is going to leave us.

I will be posting more videos , I am just waiting for a really good one before I post !

My brother has been using the Arlo for years. He had an issue in his attic and couldn’t figure it out, and put the camera up there and found a mouse nest. Lol. They are cool because you can just move them around anywhere you want. I have 2 nest cameras and a ring doorbell. I’ve thought about adding more nests but they are expensive great pic quality and has 2 way communication

It would be mighty hard not to set that guy in his place. However, then you wouldn't have any videos to look forward to Lol. I would probably just let him keep digging his hole! Then one day he would catch me in a bad mood and I'd meet him on the porch. After that I'd be meeting with the Postmaster... Backbiting cowards are one of my pet peeves!

I got hold of a demo camera that has a mic in it but our UP/FedEx guys only grunt when there’s a heavy package. They don’t behave like children.

Granted USPS does act like children and they don’t come to our house anymore with packages after one got caught on camera throwing a package out the window and driving off. They piss and moan about doing any kind of work outside the bare minimum of delivering 50lbs of junk mail a day. I swear they are on commission for that.

And they still wonder why USPS is bankrupt...

No longer “ no matter rain nor sleet nor snow, the Mail must go through”

It’s “sometimes if I feel like it and I don’t have to move my fat ass out of the seat of this van, because that’s too much of a inconvenience, here’s your junk mail but I left your package at the PO.”

I will have to say I have a great Mail Person she lugged my new Yeti 45 cooler in a box all the way to my front porch (about 20 Yrds).
