What is the easiest way to view the image from a single IP camera on my notebook? Can I just use a browser? I want to see a live image to aim the camera. Thanks

I have looked around and I am leaning toward this: http://www.triplett.com/shop/real-world-certifier-rwc1000k/ Does anyone have any experience with this? I am looking for something that is more than a basic cable tester. Second choice is...

Hi, I just received his latest catalog. I am making a list! Thanks!

I have several Mobius dash cams. I like them a lot. I have not yet used one as a body cam. They sell long cables so you can mount the lens (camera?) separate from the rest of the unit. They can accept a 64GB MicroSD for a very long record time, but onboard battery is good for only about 60 min.

I exchanged a few message The Network Camera Critic. He was extremely helpful. Very polite, professional, and knowledgeable. This is really a loss for our community.

I want to buy a decent PoE PTZ IP camera for less than $1,000 (preferably a LOT less!). For outdoor use. 2MP+ Good low light performance. Optical zoom. I prefer a USA version camera but will consider a camera that has English menus. This is my first IP camera system so this is a learning...

How high-tech are you? You can buy IR diode lasers with any wavelength you want. They are about the size of half an AA battery. Cost is maybe $20. I bought a couple to try and make a laser speed-gun jammer but I never got around to it.

When I first opened an openwireless.org hotspot I had someone use it constantly. I just cut the bandwidth. If they need a connection so desperately that they are willing to wait that much then I am fine with it. I just like the idea of spreading this meme. It is not for constant high bandwidth...

No way I would buy a "refurbished" (used!) harddrive these days. There is really nothing that can be "refurbished" in a harddrive. Any damage to the platters or heads is permanent and progressive. Google found that the critical number of errors for a harddrive is ONE! This post gives a good...

Wow! Mega-props for the openwireless.org hotspot! I recognize all of your host names except Muhr (Mohr?) and Segan (Sagan?).

This is absolutely true and safety should not be neglected. BUT, if you have read networkcameracritic's blog you will know he is not stupid and I assume he will be able to avoid electrocuting himself or accidentally arc-welding his solar panels together.:laugh: I also assume he is smart enough...

I have both crimp tool frames and a few dies. Both frames accept the same dies. Unfortunately, Sargent has discontinued the dies. If anyone has a source for these dies or has any dies they want to sell please PM me. These are some of the dies I want: 4100-30 4100-36m 4100-37m 4100-56 4100-65...

I have been interested in solar power for many years and I have tried to keep up to date. The hardest part will be the actual, physical installation of the panels. They have to be mounted very well! Imagine a sheet of plywood on top of your car driving down the highway! I was just talking...

I am buying a computer today and they have some really great upgrade deals. If you are in the market for a PC you should check it out. I would post a link and/or more info but I do not know if that is allowed. These are "Labor Day Mega Sale" specials so they will end sometime 1 Sep 2014...

SOLD OUT! :sorrow:
