Coverage when there is no power or internet

Long-range detection with thermal
Farms have no perimeter lighting and huge distances to cover, which makes thermal detection the only realistic way to catch movement at night.

Protecting fuel, equipment and livestock
Target fuel tanks, equipment sheds, gates and calving barns, because those are the assets that generate real losses rather than casual trespass.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need internet for farm cameras?
Only for remote viewing. Cameras can record locally to an NVR or SD card, while cellular models add alerts and live views where no line exists.
How long do solar cameras run without sun?
A properly sized battery bank usually carries a site through two to three overcast days, but heavy night-time illumination shortens that significantly.
