That's an AMG GLE coupe, highly doubt he's doing that on purpose with a car like that. He normally drives pretty fast through the neighborhood, so probably just careless.

Bin survived but is a little wobbly and big bumper transfer mark. Swapping it is a good idea but they're serialized. Normally it's on the driveway or lawn but the recycle guy sometimes misses it if it's not on the street. I was more worried about the mailbox, people or other cars that could...

Neighbor 4 houses down runs into my recycling bin and leaves like nothing happened.

Check all cooling fans are working?

Forgot, I changed the camera because the original broke. It's actually an LTS CMIP9532

Dahua IPC-HFW4300S

No chance getting a good shot when running

Any chance of getting 4mm turrets? Been searching for a while with no luck.

Is it possible to make this program continuously send zoom/focus commands every minute or so for cameras that lose focus by themselves?

Pulled a little bit of zoom out and added more reflectors. Been over a month and is working great. Only worried about winter when they get covered with snow.

Nevermind, camera still goes out of focus and stays out of focus even with the reflectors day and night. Might have to try a little less zoom or figure a way to constantly send a focus command to it every few minutes.

Tried this, been good for 3 nights now so seems to help. Hopefully my neighbor doesn't remove it. Daytime still has the same problem of focus shifting and not coming back into focus. I'm almost all the way zoomed out, like 90%. I also switch and hour before sunset and an hour after sunrise.

I’ve done this with a small rc car in a cold air return that ran across a section of ceiling to run a pull string. Worked great, just lowered the car through a register and let it run until it fell in the basement.

Fills the roll of a perfect license plate camera. Wish I had a way to house a camera at the street like that.

I weld about 15 to 20 feet from my camera in my garage with no problems so far. It's just a hobby so welding only happens a couple times a month. The footage looks good, very mild compared to a sunset. This is with low to mid amperage tig welding though, so like an 11 shade helmet.
