    VCSEL IR Laser 850nm illuminator for long distance spot IR 250+ ft

    I like your tinkering and DIY. Is there any red glow as in leds or is it clean 850nm ? The IR lasers that I have emits radiation in about 90 degrees of what you show, not up from the substrate but alongside the substrate. And good with laser as is much more powerful an more narrow by default...

    Lets talk next level PTZ's with Laser IR

    Amazing spot, but still no feedback (if i havens missed it)... If you are in the strong spotlight looking into the camera is there any visible red ??? if not, amazing camera! if there is you know you are spotted and maybe a warning.

    Lets talk next level PTZ's with Laser IR

    It looks amazing ! Lets hope that the laser dont have the red glare that LEDs have due to broader spectrum. Or else it will be a strong spotlight :-( that really shows what its pointing at. Brgds TheSwede

    Hello! New swedish member here :-)

    Ja det här är ju kul.. Optik, elektronik, POE, nätverk, vpn, brandväggar,Mac Gyver style.... Senaste bygget var en nattkamera för jakt, att spana med så man inte behöver vifta med bössan hela tiden. Har en känsligare kamera på väg från Kina som har bättre optik och känsligare för 940nm.

    Cant get Zoom to work in BI on older PTZ

    If you don't succeed with that, try HTTPSpy . Run that program on the same computer you are controlling the camera via webinterface, that is working. Then you can monitor the commands sent to the camera and modify the commands in BlueIris. The drawback is that you need to manually put in all...

    Can a old router be used as a repeater/range extender

    Much better way to go.. Instead of installing 220/110V to the places for the cameras, maybe needing a electrician. Buy a POE switch, buy some POE to 5v adapters. Draw CAT5 cables yourself and connect the cameras to the cables via the adapter. And then you have the infrastructure ready for...

    Can a old router be used as a repeater/range extender

    Dont ! As said before. The DCS-932 uses 2,4 ghz and they will stream continous. It is only 3 practically usable channels on 2,4.... and 2.4 will travel long- more disturbance from neighbours If you have more cameras on the same router/accesspoint (as you do) the channel will be crowded. If...

    Why Use a Router ?

    Before you ev. buy a new router to get VPN possibilities, check that you have a public IP adress and not a CGNat'ed , CarrierGradeNat. You check with "Whatsmyip.com" and log in to your router and check that the outside IP is the same as Whatsmyip... If not you will never be able to VPN home.

    Why Use a Router ?

    Pls, observe that the -86 has MUCH better processor for VPN speed. -68 gives about 30Mb and the -86 gives 150-200Mb VPN speed. I use -86 with Merlin and it works fine. Brgds TheSwede

    Hi ! I'v done the same as You, started with Dlink cameras and the Dlink software. Which IS working but not so many tweaking possibilities. I moved on to BlueIris and had some struggle in the beginning, but that sorts out after a while. Read this forum and the Wiki in the top menu Reused the...

    Chicken with a tail or mouse with only two legs.

    Yes it might be there the legs are, it is peanut butter in all the traps and also a electric Victor in the background. Guess it would be better to have the butter in some sort of cage so the don't just lick it off. I was up there there just two days ago, that's why I have multiple traps to be...

    Chicken with a tail or mouse with only two legs.

    From my cottage/country house where we have some mice in the boiler room. He didn't triggered the trap as he didn't use the front legs, but at last he did so he has no problems any longer. Brgds TheSwede
