Help with purchase

If I purchase 5 wireless cameras with a base station, can I add on 2 of the audio cameras with same base?  Also, is there a limit to how many camera's the base can have because if I choose to add another wireless will it work or do I have to purchase another base station?

FYI- Do your homework before you get buy the product. 

1- Technical Supoort do not respone if you're having issues.

2- Motion Detection take 3-7 seconds to start recording. (That is the biggest problem- 3-7 seconds is way too long- anything could happen during that time)

3- Batteries are very very expense.

4. Yes it is very easy to setup that is why it's rated so high other than that it's not really a reliable security system.

5. Search the Community fourm at see what people have to say about this product.

Thank you for the info.

YMMV. While there are certainly complaints and issues, there's also a lot that are working just fine. Is it due to the particular installation or failure to RTFM as well as to follow directions - who knows? I have 3 wireless and 1 Q with few issues. Sure, I'd like to change things but then I'd do that to a Ferrari, too.

To answer the Q question, they have nothing to do with the base station. They are completely self-contained and only need power and WiFi (the Q Plus can use Ethernet for both power and/or connection). The base supports up to 15 cameras but only 5 can stream at once. If you're going past 5 cameras for the free place , you'll need to purchase CVR for the Q cameras and/or use a second base station that's set up to a second email address. If you do that, you can (mostly) see and control all cameras in one app/web login but takes a guest account on one system to do so. Not hard, just a little putting. Otherwise, purchase one of the paid subscriptions to your satisfaction.
