I am looking into buying this system, it looks really great! My questions are...

 

Can you set the cameras to record video even without the motion detection setting it off? Say, at all times? Or set times?

 

Then, can you control when you record from your mobile devices?

 

AND, how much memory would "X" number of hours or minutes use in the cloud? It would be helpful to know, in order to make a decision on what subscription plan to opt for.

 

Thank you!

Not sure if you can schedule just a record without motion... This may be due to maximize the battery life; why record if no motion.

 

But to answer your question, via either the browser account OR you mobile device you can access the cameras and toggle on recording of the cameras.

So you could record at any time of your choosing.

 

The number of videos I have come in +/- 1mb per ten seconds at Hgh quality video, so you can estimate similar. Amount does vary a little bit based on Quality of video chosen and scene being viewed ( ther are 3 choices for quality)
