Does anyone else have the 3R Power DVR Prestige? I was in the process of trying to get an image on our monitor as there was nothing, checking connections, then I switched it off/on and the fuse blew.
It's a pretty old model and they come from Korea.

Sally, this would probably be a good time to upgrade. DVR based CCTV systems have come down in price and are easier to use and install.

Depending on how old your system is, I can easily foresee it costing more to repair it than replace it.

Thanks Tony. I sent it away today, its a pretty old model (7 yrs)so they may not be able to get new parts if it needs major repair. Upgrade would be nice, here's hoping.
