The Winnowl Lab Report

Specification	Value	Rating	Vs. Average	Winnowl Insight
Resolution	2 MP	Mediocre	58% worse	Entry-level outdoor resolution. While 1080p (2MP) is sufficient for indoor use, the vast distances of a yard or driveway quickly turn low-resolution footage into a blurry mess.
Night Vision Range	100 ft	Average	11% better	Long-range night vision. Engineered with high-output IR arrays to provide visibility across large unlit lots or dark cul-de-sacs.
Storage Capacity	0 GB	Average	100% worse	Sub-standard outdoor storage. Wired cameras are expected to handle more data; 64GB or less is a bottleneck that forces a reliance on expensive cloud plans.
