  • Hello.

    I'm moving from a Lorex NVR to a custom outdoor monitoring setup. Would like to purchase 1-2 cameras first to try them out, but assuming they work well I'll need probably 6 more. considerations:

    - will be running BI. must be POE cameras.
    - house is in a place where it gets cold (-25C), snows, rains hard, in the winter
    - reliability is a must. We aren't there for months at a time. I can't easily send someone out to power-cycle the cameras, flash the FW, or wipe off the lenses
    - prefer turret style (remote controllable PTZ)
    - yard is large...would like some night-vision ability for up to 30-40 feet. willing to install additional infra-red to facilitate that if necessary
    - internet upload from there is awful. Like to record at high-rez so we can zoom in when necessary, but will have to down-sample to reduce resolution to support remote viewing. Do any of the cameras have HW to make this less taxing on the BI CPU?

    Hi

    There is no turret PTZ, you can check SD1A203T-GN, this one can support all of your requiry.

    thanks. that does look like it fits nearly everything I need. I've heard some concerns with dome cameras fogging internally....is that a realistic risk? This one is 2MP - which seems light compared to some other options. Is there an equivalent version with higher resolution. Or is # MP not the thing I should be most concerned about (vs, say, CCD size or lens quality?)

    The foggy happens on some cams which has wet air inide, so when camera work outdoor , camera inside is bit warmer than the outdoor air, so the air inside will have some condensation, this will disappear soon after you use 2-3 days.
    Hi Andy,
    I was actually referred to you by someone on SlickDeals :). Looksl like you have quite a reputation all over the web. Anyway, I wanted to purchase 2 or 3 cameras and was wondering what's the difference in price vs buying directly from you vs Amazon. Thanks!

    One hdw5231r-ze and two hdw2231r-zs. And what's the difference between the shipping times? Thanks.
    Hello Andy, I bought a Dahua IP PTZ camera SD59430-HNI from your KS2018 Amazon store and have a question about the alarm, audio wires. I am using PoE+ Ethernet connection , will that cover the alarm and audio too or must the alarm and audio be wired separately? Thanks

    Thanks buddy, the audio and alarms have to be wired separately, it's not built in, thanks for your checking.

    Hi Andy, I'm looking to buy (to dleiver to melbourne) 6 x IPC-HFW1831-E (or perhaps varifocal version IPC-HFW2831T-ZS ) but I notice there is not much stock in your aliexpress store (haven't checked your other stores). Can you quote & advise when available? (I'd need 3 x 2.8mm, 2x 4mm, 1x 6mm lens). I will also need 9ch PoE NVR, and 5x wall mounts & 1x ceiling mounts - please quote if you can.

    Hi Andy is it true what Walrus posted about "Dahua IPC-HDW2431T-ZS-S2 4MP: 1/3" sensor and 4MP = not great at night with min lux 0.01 "?????
    I am looking for New NVR to replace my Lorex 9163.
    I was interested in the Dahua NVR608-32 or NVR5832.
    Will these work with my Lorex LNB8973 and LNE8974 cameras
    Will I have full functionality?

    if the cams are standard onvif cams, then can be ok., full functional, i can't be 100% sure, because 3rd party cams may have some private protocle. Main functions can work without problem. NVR608-32-4KS2 is the best to go.

    Hello Andy,
    I have a Lorex 8ch 1080p HD CVI DVR
    I’m looking to replace it with something that is can still use my cameras with. Do you have something that will work and hopefully last.
    Thanks John

    Hi Andy,
    I purchased a few cams from you a couple years ago and have a new project. Am looking to upgrade old analog DVR to IP cam NVR so looking for recommendations and what magic you have if we need to keep the old coax in some places. This is for an community entryway so faces, vehices and license plates relatively close to cams will be most important.
    Thanks,
    J
    Andy, is there an updated Firmware for the Dahua SD22404T-GN? When I initially plug it in, the PTZ functions and video stream work properly, but after about 30 minutes, the PTZ functions quit responding, but the video stream is still visible. [NTSC]DH_SD-Mao-Rhea_MultiLang_NP_Stream3_IVS_V2.623.0000000.7.R.181124 is currently installed.

    This one no further update, please make a hard reset on the camera , press it for 5-7 seconds and then camera can be reset.
    Hi Andy have a new house I want to install camera’s can you send me pm so can send you house plan so you can decide what I need.

    Thnx Ton
    Hello andy, I'm looking to purchase the ipc-k35s, do you happen to stock any of that? If not, would the k35a version be good enough for baby monitoring when mounted from the ceiling?

    Thank you
