I have loads on my walk I just ring it & then cover it with my mail, I did have one woman apologize about the length of time it took her to answer the door, said she was looking for her phone to see who was at the door

Oh, absolutely. In the space of two decades we went from the multimedia information superhighway informing and empowering people, to a Matrix-esque dystopian nightmare in which we are farmed for our data.

Do they have a built in DVR or does an external one have to be connected?

It uploads straight to the cloud

I wont use them. Simply becuase it takes too long for people to answer them.

I dont want to be told after waiting 10 minutes to leave it nextdoor or wherever.

A quick and hard 5 tap knock on the door is enough.
