    Rather interesting to watch this character...

    Yup, I have the Elk M1 for several years now, no problems with the alarm at all, I also used it to open and close my chicken coop door in the morning and close it in the evenings.

    2MP IPC-HDW5231R-Z, VS 8MP IPC-HDW5830R-Z

    I have a question about the 2mp Dahua Starlight Varifocal Turret IPC-HDW5231R-Z, and the 8MP IR Eyeball Network Camera IPC-HDW5830R-Z since the 2MP IPC-HDW5231R-Z is good in the dark... if you have a lighted up porch wouldn't the 8PM be better for mug shots if you need to crop and print?
