Use a PrePaid card. I think just about any bank will give you a pre-paid cc card. Just put the amount you need on the card and order.

I have no experience with companies like ADT or Eagle and I don't hear good things from people who have experienced them.... my question is, when they install camera systems, do they monitor those cameras or have access to those cameras? Other than low quality proprietary equipment and quite...

I have seen this going around Facebook lately.

I would guess at a sensor issue first and try turning off Auto white balance or exposure if you have that option. I don't have these cameras though and I have never seen one do this so as I said, just taking a guess.

Gas station cam in Milwaukee (nothing to do with me) caught this action. I live in small town northern Minnesota and even here I never leave my keys in the ignition when I get out of my vehicle. When we are on a trip and stop somewhere, by habit, we lock the vehicle when we get out of it...

I picked one up but sold it already (for a 5 camera system) and what a sweet little package. I did open it but didn't look to see if there were more SATA connections. If there were, you wouldn't be able to get another drive in there - you would have to run a cable out of the box to a drive. The...

As everyone is saying above... If you go to Options/Users you can Edit a user and see what sound is playing or uncheck the sound On the top of BI you can click the Status icon then select Connections, and see who is connected when.

If the wire fits I would be sure to follow those directions on the page... actually, I would check the voltage on the board before I connected, to make sure I don't connect the 12v to the 5volt and burn out the drive. " Attention: Red wire +5V, Yellow wire +12V , Black wire GND , pls connect...
