Security Cameras

Has anybody tried the cameras from x-10?
I'm concern that the quality may not be worth the expense if I have problems with vandales.

Any opinions?

The X10 camera package I purchased was very low quality. It had what they called a transmitter on it that only went about 20 feet IF there was line of sight. It would not transmit through a wall which made it useless since the reason you want a camera is to see what is out of sight. It also required very bright light to work. The IR emitter only illuminated a small circle and had a range of 8-10 feet. I hated it and dumped it. This purchase was 8 years ago and I am sure they have come a long way, But.. they claimed it would work and it didn't so they are off my recommend list.

This is what I use now. Silly I know, but I have not had a problem with the transmitter! It turns and blinks and I have had no problems.
