Today I cashed some gift vouchers I had for Christmas and decided I wanted a wireless cctv system for my guttering work, I got myself twin colour cameras and a 2 way receiver + switcher kit, and then I got myself a 9'' colour flat screen TV to complete the kit.
I Set it up today and had a play around, I was able to see everything in the gutters from the ground. (boy mine need cleaning out )
The method in my madness is to see were any blockages are and maybe show the customer, it will also save me any time by not having to clean any side of a house that is already clean, I have had many properties were one side never even needed cleaning out, so time saved is more in my pocket.
I have seen a supplier selling cctv systems for guttering costing a 4 figure sum, ok mine doesn't have a video recorder, but for less than £100 I could buy a small video recorder if I want one?
Ok here is a rundown on the cost of mine
2 wireless colour cameras + 1, 2way receiver + switcher £99
1, 9'' flat screen TV with video input £69
Total cost £168
What a saving from a 4 figure sum and it does the same job, and in my own mind look very professional.
Anyone else with a cctv system for the work? And what are your thoughts on a cctv system looking professional? After all they stick them down drains, so why not use them for guttering work?
