The Winnowl Lab Report
| Specification | Value | Rating | Vs. Average | Winnowl Insight |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Resolution | 5 MP | Mediocre | 43% worse | Professional residential standard. 5MP-6MP sensors provide a significant leap in forensic quality, perfectly balancing evidentiary detail with storage requirements. |
| Number of Cameras | 8 cameras | Average | 26% better | Residential standard coverage. A 4-to-7 camera kit allows for overlapping security zones, ensuring an intruder has nowhere to hide. |
| Storage Capacity | 2,048 GB | Average | 18% worse | Residential storage baseline. 2TB to 4TB is the sweet spot for most homeowners, providing a solid safety net of historical data. |
| Night Vision Range | 100 ft | Average | 9% worse | Professional perimeter reach. This 100ft benchmark ensures you can identify threats at the property line before they reach the structure. |
| Number of Channels | 8 channels | Average | 27% worse | Limited expansion. 4-to-6 channel systems are "fixed-capacity" units that offer very little flexibility for growing security needs. |
