I can verify that the results have not been updated.

As a side note I finally installed one of the cameras that I bought during the sale and am blown away at the night time image quality. Here are some comparison shots:

Old Amcrest IP8M-2496EB-28mm

New Empiretech IPC-Color4K-B180

Totally not a fair fight AND the WAF went way up, lol. I am considering adding a motion flood light to the power pole so that the lights on the camera don't stay on all night.

Another great example demonstrating the poor quality of higher MP cameras shoved on sensors designed for lower MP. That top image is 8MP on a 1/2.7" sensor that is great for 2MP, but as you see horrible for 8MP at night.

I think I got the go ahead to buy a few more based upon the better quality. I think..... Always easier to ask for forgiveness than permission :lmao:

Wow that’s amazing ! I cant wait for all my cameras to show up so I can install them. Especially how far the light beam is exposing your yard. Is there an option to have lights triggered motion ? I just don’t want to reveal my cameras locations at night if I don’t need to.
