3 Camera Kits: quick answers
How many days of footage will a kit in this range keep?
It depends on the drive and on how many cameras record, at what resolution. As a guide for continuous recording, each terabyte holds about 15 days at 2MP, and about 3 days at 4K for 3 cameras. The median kit in this range is estimated at 30 days. Every kit's card states its own estimate, and motion-only recording keeps footage for longer.
What is the difference between channels and cameras?
Channels are how many cameras the recorder can take; cameras are how many come in the box. Every recorder in this range leaves room for at least 1 more camera. Spare channels let you add cameras later without changing the recorder.
What is in the box?
An NVR and its matched cameras, checked against each other. Every kit in this range includes a hard drive. The exact contents, every part with its model number, are listed on each kit's own page.
3 Camera Kits
A 3 Camera Kit pairs three fixed cameras with a matching recorder, giving buyers a ready-specified system rather than a component-by-component build. This range runs to 1695 SKUs, mostly Hikvision-based, with some Hikvision & Prolux combinations.
Cameras are typically 5MP bullet or turret models — DS-2CE12KF3T, DS-2CE78K0T-LPTS, DS-2CE78H0T-IT3FS and similar part numbers appear across multiple kits, sometimes mixed (e.g. bullet plus turret in the same kit). Recorders range from 4-channel (XVR-3104HS-5MP-LITE, XVR-3104HS) up to 8-channel (IDS-7208HQHI, IDS-7208HUHI-M1/E, PXD-5208AN, DVR-8CH), each bundled with 4TB of storage.
How to choose
- Camera type: turret for discreet indoor/eaves mounting, bullet for a visible long-range deterrent — several kits mix both.
- Recorder headroom: a 4-channel recorder used with 3 cameras leaves one spare channel for a future add; an 8-channel recorder leaves five spare channels, useful if the site may expand later.
- Exact camera model: check the part number (e.g. DS-2CE78K0T-LTS vs -LPTS) as designations differ between otherwise similar kits.
- Recorder model: IDS-7208HUHI-M1/E and PXD-5208AN both pair with 3-camera 8-channel kits but are not interchangeable part numbers.
3 Camera Kits — frequently asked questions
How many spare channels does a 3 camera kit leave on a 4-channel recorder?
A 4-channel recorder supports up to 4 cameras, so using it with a 3-camera kit leaves one spare channel for future expansion.
What camera types are used in these kits?
Kits in this range use 5MP bullet or turret cameras, such as the DS-2CE12KF3T and DS-2CE78K0T-LPTS, and some kits mix both types.
Do all 3 camera kits come with the same storage?
The kits listed in this range are bundled with 4TB of recording storage, though the recorder model itself varies by kit.
Are the 4-channel and 8-channel recorders interchangeable across kits?
No — each kit specifies a particular recorder model (for example XVR-3104HS or IDS-7208HUHI-M1/E), and these are not generic swaps between kits.
