However, those IR headlights cause some issues, attracting insects that buzz around and trip the motion detector constantly. ![]() But, with a good bit of moonlight or even a small streetlight that range is far extended. This model adds night vision to the mix, able to see in IR and boosted by a pair of IR emitters that, on a pitch-black night, give it an effective range of about 30 feet in our testing. The outdoor-ready 700e, however, is a very different beast, looking rather more like a security camera and, with its metal construction, feeling beefy and weatherproof. The indoor model looks something like a chubby mouse, a curious look for a security camera but its light weight and threaded receivers make it easy to mount, to the wall via the included hardware, on a wall or simply with a suction cup, or simply sitting in its little holder on a shelf. Logitech was kind enough to send us one of each and, despite both offering the same skinny HD resolution of 960 x 720, their designs are very dissimilar. How so? Read on to find out.Īs we mentioned in the earlier hands-on, Logitech is offering two cameras: the $230 700i for indoors and well-lit shooting and the $280 700e for outdoors or nighttime shooting (each available as a bundle with the necessary receiver for $300 and $350, respectively). In that time we found living with Alert to be generally entertaining, sometimes frustrating, and occasionally disconcerting. Since then we've spent a week beneath its piercing gaze, afraid to scratch inappropriately lest that movement be recorded forever onto the cold, merciless memory of network-attached storage.
