Unless selecting a vari-focal camera (with an adjustable lens) It is important to select the correct camera lens option for where the camera is to be positioned. A smaller lens will give you a wider angle but will be "zoomed out more", while a bigger lens will narrow the angle down and "zoom in more". See below to give you some idea on angles of Megapixel HD Cameras:
| Lens in mm | Approx Viewing Angle (degrees) | Ideal Distance (metres) | Typical usage/notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2.8 | 106 | <6 | For seeing as much of the immediate area as possible such as above a doorway/low down/garage soffits (edges can appear slightly warped/distorted) - clearly "zoomed out" |
| 3.6/4 | 83-90 | <12 | A great general purpose option giving great coverage still in the corner of a room or higher up on second floor soffits with less distortion - more of a natural "zoom" |
| 6 | 56 | 6-20 | Narrows down the angle and zooms in to look past the immediate area a little to gain more detail - down a driveway for example from higher up |
| 12 | 24 | 20+ | Zooms in significantly more to look at a gate, entrance or adjascent building |
| 16 | 19 | 24+ | As above but more so |
The amount of hard drive space you require is dictated by how many cameras, as well as their resolution, frame rate settings, and whether you have H.265 encoding enabled or not to save space (We advise turning it on to double the capacity shown below with ease).
Finally, you can often make your storage space last a lot longer by enabling motion-detected recording rather than continuous, especially if there are long periods of no activity (to perhaps double or more these figures again).

Resolution (Megapixels) |
Days of storage provided by 1TB per camera (continuous - full 25 frames per second) |
Days of storage provided by 1TB per 4 cameras (continuous - full 25 frames per second) |
Days of storage provided by 1TB per 4 cameras (50% motion- 15 frames per second) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 44 | 11 | 36 |
| 2 | 22 | 5 | 18 |
| 3 | 17 | 4 | 14 |
| 4 | 11 | 3 | 9 |
| 5 | 9 | 2 | 8 |
| 6 | 8 | 2 | 6 |
| 8 (4K) | 5 | 1 | 4 |
| 12 | 4 | 0.5 | 3 |
As a rule of thumb, we recommend 2 Terabytes for a 4 x 4/5MP HD camera setup, as this should give you approx 2 weeks using H.265 @ 20fps and that is on continuous, not motion-detected recording.
(You may only require the full 25 frames per second on certain cameras if things are fast-moving - ie above a till)

FireProtect 2 (Heat)
Wireless Fire Detector with Heat Sensors: Provides cutting-edge protection against fire threats in residential settings, equipped with advanced heat sensors to quickly detect unusual temperature rises or excessive heat, offering a crucial early warning system for fire safety.
Two Versions for Enhanced Flexibility:
FireProtect 2 SB (Heat): Features sealed batteries designed for a decade of operation, ensuring long-term reliability without the need for battery replacement.
FireProtect 2 RB (Heat): Offers up to 7 years of operation with replaceable batteries, allowing for easy maintenance and extended device life.
Innovative Fire Detection Technology: Utilises two A1R-class thermistors for swift detection of rapid temperature increases, particularly effective in identifying fires that begin with synthetic materials burning without visible smoke, ensuring prompt response to potential fire threats.
Comprehensive Alert System: Equipped with a powerful 85 dB built-in siren to promptly alert occupants of fire danger, alongside different sound and LED indications for heat alarms, malfunctions, low battery level, and device end of life, ensuring occupants are well-informed of the detector's status and any fire threats.
Wireless Interconnection for Synchronized Alerts: Allows for the synchronisation of alarms across all FireProtect 2 detectors within a facility, ensuring that when one detector senses a threat, the sirens of other detectors are activated within 20 seconds, enhancing overall safety and response time.
Integration with Ajax Ecosystem for Advanced Safety Features: When connected to an Ajax hub, FireProtect 2 enhances its capabilities, offering remote setup, real-time information via Ajax apps, instant notifications, and the ability to automate fire safety measures, such as shutting off power sources and unlocking emergency exits upon detection of fire.
Unique Wireless Technologies for Secure Communication: Employs the Jeweller proprietary protocol for encrypted two-way communication with the Ajax hub, ensuring secure data transmission, prevention of spoofing, and efficient energy use, with up to 1,700 metres of communication range in open space.
Easy Installation and Maintenance-Free Operation: Designed for straightforward installation with the SmartBracket panel and QR code pairing, FireProtect 2 requires no disassembly during setup. It features an automatic self-test system for sensor diagnostics and supports manual testing via the Ajax apps or the detector's front panel, simplifying maintenance and ensuring reliability.
FireProtect 2 (Heat) represents a significant advancement in residential fire safety, combining innovative detection technology, flexible battery options, and seamless integration with the Ajax ecosystem to provide a comprehensive and reliable fire safety solution.
