 Lorex L154-81 4 CH DVR I get asked alot about DVR Systems. Well folks, I did the research and found the best system for the buck in my opinion is the Lorex model # L154-81 4ch 8o gig hardrive unit! Here's a little info below! *Lorex 4-Channel Digital Video Recorder 80GB hard drive included*Provides 2,250 hours recording capability/100 hours real time*Password security protected*High quality recording with modified MJPEG compression (5-20Kbyte/frame)*Viewing options are Quad or fullscreen*Quick multiple search capability*Remote control or main panel operation*Four camera inputs (4 BNC) The Best thing is you can pick one of these up Brand New or Used off E-bay for about $100.00 -$175.00 or buy it brand New at Sams Club for about $280.00  Sony 1/3 Exview CCD 16mm IR Cam Well now you need some cams to hook up to your DVR . I did the research there too and I find these Cams to be awesome. The Sony Exviews are in a class of their own for quality! See below! Infrared LEDs: 84 LEDs Signal System: PAL/NTSC Image Sensor: 1/3" Sony CCD Horizontal Resolution: 480 Lines Lens: 16mm Minimal Illumination: 0 LUX (IR ON) S/N Ratio: More than 50dB Distance: 40-60 meters View Angle: 50 degree LED Wave Length: 840nm -84 Infrared LEDs Water Resistance: IP55 Video Output: BNC Operation Temperature: -20 c to +50 c Power Requirement: 12V 1000mA. Ok the bad part is these Cameras are NOT CHEAP. You can find them on e-bay Brand New anywhere from $75.00-$129.00 per Cam. But Overall, a Lorex Dvr and 4 Sony Exviews for a total of about $500.00 to have a professional DVR System--Not too bad!

Its a little pricy but you can pick one up off e-bay as cheap as $75.OO or a hunting store for about $200.00 look at the info below! A thermal sensor that is durable, stable and accurate up to 300 yards. The built-in red laser and infrared lasers help pinpoint heat sources at night.

Audio squelches that correlate with the detection of heat can be heard through the earphone.

 The Bat Detector At first I didn't know how this would work in the paranormal field, but after reading the Article that Paranormal Insider wrote, I was fascinated! I do see how this could work for an Evp listening type device--the fequency levels it picks up is Amazing. I think with a little more research and use out in the field to document that it can work, it could be useful! Below is the Article from Paranormal Insider, and 2 websites on how to build your very own! Interesting to say the least! Sorry its small print below, but it was hard to fit it all in!

Garmin GPS 60 Handheld Units
Lets face it--How many times as Paranormal Investigators have we taken photos out in the field, and a week, month, or year later wanted to go back and recreate the picture for debunking? Wait--can't remember the exact spot? Well, now you can with a Handheld GPS Unit. I can not say enough on how this piece of equipment is going to be your new best friend! This will be one piece of equipment you will use on a daily basis, believe me! GPS Units (Global Positioning Units) are not cheap. I personally like the the Garmin Handheld 60 units above. The Garmin GPSMap 60cx seems to have the toys for the buck. I have seen them on e-bay from $100.00 to $350.00, which is the price for brand new. There are also cheaper models out there as well. Magellan and Lowrance make decent handheld models to for a little less too. You just need to do a little research to find a make and model that fits your needs!
