Works great! It's about time someone came out with the idea of an odd numbered power supply box for powering up extra items that might be need for the system like an illuminator.

This is a nice waterproof outdoor power box. I love the fact that it is 9 channels. This can give you room for 9 cameras outside on a 16 or more channel system or allow for an extra channel to power a 12 VDC infrared illuminator and use 8 cameras. It saved a lot of wiring time for the cameras and we already have an outdoor weather protected GFCI outlet that this is connected to so it works out very well for us.

This is a high quality, solidly built power box that you can tell will last a long time. We use it for all of our exterior cameras. Strategic placement of the power box limited the length of our camera power runs and drasitaclly reduced the length of a couple runs specifically. We've mounted this outdoors and connected to a dedicated power line via a protected outdoor outlet box. You can tell the way it is built that this unit will last for a long time.
