    Mounting a Turret Camera

    ...pole with a flat top that I'd like to mount a turret camera flat on the top of the pole, with the camera completely rotated, and even a small wedge under the camera to get the angle I want. Any concerns about being exposed to the rain? The rest of my turrets will be under the house soffit...

    ...that off, but was wondering why Reolink wants to reboot? Great replacement for my Ezviz DB. Was able to use Ezviz mounting holes for Reolink Wedge. Instead of jumping the mechanical doorbell Transformer and Doorbell terminals I just disconnected them and wired nutted them together. Easy...

    New Reolink Wired POE Doorbell Cam ?

    ...was just about to brag about my triumphant install in this thread... and immediately realized from the photo in the OP that I had installed the wedge backwards, and that's why it was so janky... Now I'm back after flipping that bracket over. This whole frustration started when I saw a Nest...

    What is the most secure way to mount to a concrete wall?

    What fasteners were used on the last install? Try some wedge anchors, maybe mount the cam a little higher. Depending on the quality of the concrete, you might be better off drilling hole all the way through the wall, install threaded rod to secure.

    Thanks for the example. So the Reolink video quality looks much better than the Dahua doorbell camera? I guess it's 5MP for the Reolink vs. only 2MP for the Dahua?

    IPC-4231 in corridor mode - won't display in iOS app - app crashes

    If you view the camera from the list rather than tapping on it in the All Cameras grid, does it also crash? Did you do the rotation in the camera or in BI?

    Have a 'wedge' 4231 camera beside my carport, monitoring the path there. It's rotated ninety degrees in BI, and appears fine in the Blue Iris Windows application, and also on the 'all cameras' mosaic/overview. But if I tap the camera to bring it up, the iOS app crashes and restarts. The...

    Interior Camera Recommendation

    The Dahua wedge with the matching Dahua circular mount (PFA139 I believe) is extremely low profile and looks great.

    Interior Camera Recommendation

    Both Hik and Dahua make mini dome /wedge cameras like this. IPC-HDBW3541F-AS-M - Dahua Technology This particular model is end of life. I believe they went to 4mp models but there might be 5mp available. There is a benefit to the 4:3 aspect ratio of a 5mp 2592 × 1944 sensor for indoor use...

    Camera near floodlight

    That’s a great idea. I forgot I could mount to a small piece of wood and wedge in there’s to test. It’s actually hidden vent vinyl soffit but still has some wiggle room to do what your saying.
