Black Kits: your questions answered
How many days of footage do kits in this range keep?
It comes down to three things: the size of the drive, how many cameras are recording and their resolution. As a rough guide, if just one camera is recording non-stop, every terabyte gives you around 46 days of 4MP footage or around 23 days of 4K footage. On a typical kit here, it's about 57 days. Each kit's card shows its own estimate — and if you only record when something moves, footage lasts longer.
Channels and cameras — what's the difference?
Think of channels as how many cameras the recorder will take, and cameras as the number you actually get. The recorders here have between 4 and 32 channels. With spare channels, you can add cameras later and keep the same recorder.
What's in the box?
A recorder (an NVR on IP kits or a DVR on Turbo HD ones) plus matching cameras, checked to work together. Every kit here comes with a hard drive. Every part, with its model number, is listed on each kit's own page.
How much do kits in this range cost?
Prices for the in-stock kits here go from £273.83 to £5,431.74 including VAT. The figure on each card is what that kit costs.
Black Kits: complete CCTV systems with matching cameras and a recorder
A Black Kit is a boxed CCTV system: a set of matching black turret cameras, a recorder (NVR), and a hard drive already sized for the channel count. This range runs from small 4-channel kits up to 32-channel systems.
At the small end, a 4-channel kit with 4 black turret cameras and a single hard drive (options from 3TB up to 10TB) suits a house or small shop entrance and yard. At the top end, 32-channel kits pair 14 to 16 cameras with multiple hard drives working together — some kits use two drives, others three, and one 15-camera kit uses four 10TB drives — to hold the extra footage that more cameras generate.
How to choose
- Camera count: match the kit to how many entry points, sides, or areas you actually need to cover.
- Storage capacity: larger camera counts need more total storage, so recorders in bigger kits split it across several drives rather than one.
- Camera model: some kits use the named DS-2CD2387G3 turret camera specifically — check the listing if you want that exact model.
- Resolution: all kits listed here are 4K, so image detail should be consistent across the range.
Black Kits — frequently asked questions
What comes in a Black Kit?
Each Black Kit includes a set of matching black turret cameras, a recorder (NVR), and one or more hard drives already fitted for storage.
How much storage do these kits have?
It varies by kit size: 4-channel kits offer a single drive from 3TB to 10TB, while larger 32-channel kits split storage across two, three, or in one case four hard drives.
Are all the cameras the same model?
Not always — some kits specify the DS-2CD2387G3 turret camera by name, while others simply list a black turret camera, so it's worth checking the exact listing.
