So i just received my Mini DVR unit it is 12 Volt Dc (1 amp Max) The unit it is very small and can use a 32 gig SD card which i bought overall size is about 3.25 " by 2.25" .Very easy unit to use when power is applied it starts recording about 5 secs later.
I did a small video recording to show a sample of the Marcum Camera hooked to DVR.

I thought other members with the Marcum 485 C camera may be interested in getting one for video recording.

Can't wait to get out after Brookies with this Camera and DVR unit.

I also have a DVR for my Aquaview DT. Works well and I have several recordings on utube. You'll enjoy it.

7am to 5pm and 18gigs! That's awesome.

I've only used mine in the bedroom so far and well.......about 7am to 7:10 am is all I needed to record. I guess I'll have lots left over for the boat

All kidding aside, they are a great unit!
