The Winnowl Lab Report
| Specification | Value | Rating | Vs. Average | Winnowl Insight |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Resolution | 8 MP | Strong | 68% better | High-fidelity surveillance. These 8MP (4K) sensors provide the high-density data required for large properties where the "action" often happens far from the lens. |
| Night Vision Range | 131 ft | Strong | 45% better | Elite night-reach. These 130ft+ ranges represent professional-grade illumination, typically found on high-end hardware designed for total darkness. |
| Storage Capacity | 0 GB | Average | 100% worse | Sub-standard outdoor storage. Wired cameras are expected to handle more data; 64GB or less is a bottleneck that forces a reliance on expensive cloud plans. |
