It is a little bulky and heavy, but it needs to be to do the great job of holding your GPS exactly where you want it. It’s easy to attach your GPS and position it. It stays where you put it. I’m so glad I spend the extra money for this. It is so worth it. It was $28 on Garmin and $22 here, when purchased with the GPS. I would have liked it to be half the price, but would still buy it again, at whatever price.

Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R1GKOFE1YT3PNF I will warn you – this review (especially the video portion) will not tell you every detail of the Lorex Edge Security Bundle. However, I will attempt to show you on how the system sets up (from a basic installation) how it works what it looks like on your video monitor.
Notes -
- Pretty good picture – not HD, of course, but it does have good picture for this price point.
- Decent low light capability
- Basic set-up is relatively easy. IF YOU DO NOT plan to integrate the security bundle to network installation will take about an hour – and be accomplished by anyone
- If you are planning to run this through your network you will need some advanced understanding of port forwarding and ways to set-up your router.
- For some reason the bundle does not come with a VGA cable- which is required for use with a monitor.
- Does not have RCA outputs…. the unit only works with a network or through a direct VGA output. I found this to be an odd oversight.
- Comes with a basic remote control and mouse.
- Security bundle is NOT wireless – each camera comes with 60′ of cable that must be plugged into the base unit. This is not as big of a disadvantage as it may seem – wireless security packages can be hacked and require each camera to be individually powered.
- Cameras do NOT need to be near a power outlet. The video output cable (That plugs into the back of the base unit) runs next to a power cord, in fact, the cable can ONLY be plugged into an outlet near the base unit.
- Unit can record based on a timer/calendar
- Unit can record based on a motion detector.
- If you watch the video you will see a bird that sticks his beak directly in front of the camera. This is impressive because the camera has a focus and capture zone ranging from 1′ to about 100′. This gives you great security coverage!
- All of the mounting hardware is included, this includes wall anch
