Sionyx nightwave Vs Hikvision 8mp Colorvu cctv camera

I ran both the Sionyx nightwave and a hikvision colorvu 8mp camera to compare the two. Nightwave costs $1,600 with the tax plus you need a supplimentary lead for the back of the Simrad NSS evo 3s screens which is another $40 as the nightwave runs on old fashioned RCA . The hikvision camera which is a low light cctv ip camera, needs an encoder, a switch and a monitor to stream HD. All these items are off of Amazon at a cost of $700 so less than half the price. I mounted the hikvision colorvu and the moniter on sea suckers, so i can set it up when i need to use it, it takes leass than 5 minutes. Make your own judgements on which system is best? I have made my choice, the Sionyx Nightwave is up for sale. here is a list with the links for the equipment required. Screen 15ft Cable Encoder switch Hikvision colorvu camera I have fitted a Seasucker to the monitor and the camera, i fit the camera to the underside of the T top and the monitor on the console, you can see its placement in the video. You will need to plug the decorder and the camera into a computer to match the I.P. addressโ€™s together. Follow the instructions that comes with the decoder to set them up. Everything on the list runs on 12volt dc so you only need a supply from the boat and you are up and running.
