    2025 New Arrivals From EmpireTech

    As others are saying; unfortunately not working; just one of the many "quirks" of the Dahua ecosystem. If it would work there wouldn't be a problem; but the fact this toggle is present but not working if very annoying. Dahua shouldn't put it there if it's not working as it should. This results...

    2025 New Arrivals From EmpireTech

    Yes, that's why I was so happy when Andy came with the new firmware for the S3 camera's. But I'm also considering building an Unraid NAS/server (replacing an old Qnap NAS) and think about running Frigate. Less dependance on detection capabilities of Dahua camera's.

    2025 New Arrivals From EmpireTech

    @EMPIRETECANDY So just to check; there is no new 180/dual lens IR camera coming? (Like the Color4K-T180 but with IR or dual light instead of visible LED only or like a 180/dual lens version of the Color4M-T?) It is a shame animal detection is so little of importance; I mean the checkbox is even...

    Camera recommendations for Europe

    To be fair; I haven't bought anything from Andy lately, it's all camera's I won with the lotteries. ;) Including his last lottery. I don't think I have any paperwork of these import costs still around, but I can check tomorrow.

    Camera recommendations for Europe

    Didn't know he had 2 different shipping methodes. All things from him came delivered in about a week to The Netherlands with often a ~€10 import cost (from the shipping company; via a letter through the post about a week later)

    Can 1 cat5e power two ip cams?

    I've been using this one from Aliexpress for 1+ year to feed a 5442 and 5231, powered by a TP-Link POE-switch. Working fine so far. EDIT: can't seem to link to Aliexpress (forum gives me an error), but it's those cheap €10-15 white POE extender things. EDIT #2: something like this:

    Dahua Turret as bird camera

    Just to give an update. I made a simple birdhouse and installed it on April 5. Unfortunately no takers. I think it was the next day one bird stood in the entry hole but left immediately. Since this camera's IVS can only detect humans and vehicles (and no animals), I use simple motion detection...

    Looking for POE nest cam

    You could also use one of @EMPIRETECANDY 's regular IP camera's. I used a surplus IPC-HDW2431T-AS-S2. I opened it up, removed the glue that's on the lens thread and refocused the lens. Easy to do if you have the camera powered on and use live view to focus the lens. I made a simple box and...

    DHI-NVR4108-P-4KS2 firmware update

    Well, the NVR is working fine so if the new firmware doesn't have some major/usefull improvement; probably not going to do that.

    Dahua WizColor COMING SOON!

    I would love to see a dual sensor/lens/180 version of the IPC-T54IR-AS-S3/IPC-Color4M-T. The current 180 models require visible LED or enough natural light to work; I don't like visible LED's and don't have enough light. (Funnily enough; my T54IR camera's switch to B/W much sooner at the end of...

    EmpireTech 2025 Spring Sales March.18th-23rd

    Must be "interesting" times for businesses like you right now..to put it mildly... He sort of did; Andy has a Amazon.de store: Amazon.de But not much in stock though... Personally; I would love it if we could buy from his online store directly instead of email. But in the end; for us EU...

    Is this going to effect prices for EU customers? Anyway; my price got delivered this morning! Thanks @EMPIRETECANDY :thumb: That's only 2 days shipping! :wow: And I was able to track the very airplane going from Guangzhou to Bangalore, Dubai and finally Liege. AVgeek in me was happy.
