The Winnowl Lab Report

Specification	Value	Rating	Vs. Average	Winnowl Insight
Number of Cameras	8 cameras	Strong	34% better	Comprehensive residential coverage. 6 to 8 cameras allow for overlapping fields of view, ensuring there are no hidden paths for an intruder.
Resolution	5 MP	Average	19% better	High-fidelity surveillance. These systems provide superior pixel density, essential for large lots where cameras are mounted high and far from the subject.
Night Vision Range	80 ft	Average	11% worse	Professional night reach. This 80-90ft benchmark ensures that you can identify threats long before they reach the structure of your home.
Storage Capacity	1,000 GB	Average	15% worse	Residential storage baseline. 1TB-2TB is the standard "insurance" level for most homeowners, providing enough buffer to review recent incidents.
Number of Channels	8 channels	Average	6% worse	Standard residential headroom. 8-channel units are the industry favorite because they allow a homeowner to start with 4 cameras and grow over time.
