    New LED streetlights!

    What an improvement. The light is even spilling over to the cross street and those videos are a touch better, as well. When I took the dogs out last night, a couple of the less savoury neighbours were complaining about the new light. I love it. Ended up dropping the brightness and contrast...

    I Ordered an Axis Communications Axis Q1808-LE Camera

    That's a great imagine. How much dialing in did you have to do? I'd be interested to see just how good of a picture you can get at night. This is great any better would be a huge plus. And somebody's pickup needs a good wash.

    The accuracy is uncanny! Just look how bright Havana is!

    Son of a bitch! Look at this! It's like daytime! The dumpster divers will be very pleased!

    Son of a bitch! These are brighter than my runway lights! Can't wait to see the overnight video tomorrow!

    New LED streetlights!

    I'm going to see how much effect it has. It will really just be infilling the corner. I have the shutter set to 1/120 to deal with the rolling bar issue. So if I adjust anything it would be gain. But I may end up leaving it as they don't always put the streetlights on.

    New LED streetlights!

    Oh, joy! New LED streetlights were installed today. What I'm most interested in is the one on my corner which has never worked in the six years that I've lived here. Well, it did work very, very briefly when a short circuit caused the cover to blow open and the bulb came down in flames. But...

    Pooping in the playground

    Ok....I wasn't going to share this following story, but it now seems relevant to the thread. Mass public transit rail services often have side-tracks or pocket-tracks (only one entrance or exit) where trains are parked with crews read to enter service should a delay, or large gap in service...

    Pooping in the playground

    So, in a past life I worked for the Toronto Transit Commission, almost exclusively as a subway operator. I forget what year it was but it was before they had installed the surveillance camera system that they have now (mostly Bosch and/or Panasonic if I remember correctly) there was a serial...

    Pooping in the playground

    I agree. I'd take the videos to any local facilities to see if he's a resident. This seems more like dementia/Alzheimer's/mental illness than anything malicious.

    Yeah, the 51W draw is quite something. I imagine that's with the POE passthrough which would be a really handy feature when it comes to reducing cabling.

    Here comes Milton…

    Lucky you. The Staffy doesn't like the rain but she'll manage if she really has to go. The Chihuahua...forget about it. Doesn't even like to get his paws wet. I carry him until the Staffy has a pee and then I put the little guy down and he'll do his. Then we're back in the house.

    Why are cars still parked there? Any why would anyone leave a giant inflatable up? https://www.facebook.com/share/r/917b1WsXLHACKg9Z/

    Not sure if this is photoshopped or not but it looks like an alien or a demon. Hope all are well.

    First effects of Milton in Havana

    At least he looked. A lot of people just throw/sweep water off their balcony with no regard as to who may be below.

    First effects of Milton in Havana

    Winds have really picked up. Hardly anyone in the street today. Good video of a Color4K/X shaking in the wind and then some good lightening over the ocean around 5am. The one dog spent most of the night under the bed. She'll stare out the bathroom window and when she sees lightening, she'll...

    First effects of Milton in Havana

    Thank you! No, we should be good in Havana. The western-most province of Pinar del Río will get much more rain and wind. They are most affected by the hurricanes. It's a beautiful place if you google some pictures. Very unique geography and it's where most of the tobacco is grown. Very...

    First effects of Milton in Havana

    This is the quickest I've seen the wind and rain pick up in my seven years living here. It's down to a steady rain. My Color4K/Xs were shaking in the wind.

    Hurricane Helene - Be safe y'all

    And now Milton is on its way towards Florida. Hold tight, guys. Hope the damage is as minimal as possible.

    Thieves Arrested

    Great story! Looks like your hard work with the cams has really paid off. Man, it is a rush when you KNOW you have footage of something good that helped put some bad guys away.

    Running Cable in Tough Location

    Our 9 month old Chihuahua would just chew the cable and then refuse to come out. I've been soldering the laptop charger cable and a 12v power supply cable. Luckily, he's only chewed the low voltage side...so far.

    Hoping all our friends and members in Florida are okay

    Lots of wind here in Havana yesterday. A number of branches came down and lots of folks without power for obvious reasons. Only "damage" here was a medium sized branch that came down and right into the middle of my carport. Fortunately, no car was there at the time. Yes, the one camera is...

    Woman steals Porsche, runs over owner after responding to Mississauga Auto Trader ad

    She made bail and then was arrested by Toronto Police as she's under investigation for at least one other similar theft. And then made bail AGAIN! https://torontosun.com/news/local-news/warmington-peel-regions-porsche-girl-now-faces-car-theft-charges-in-toronto

    IPCT Major software update in works at IPCT

    Thanks so much for the service you provide with this site! The only suggestion I can make is a better search function that can handle boolean operators. I have to resort to using "site:ipcamtalk.com" on Google to find the information that I'm looking for. Cheers!
