    How to spot fake from real Dahua cameras

    Well if it's not by dahua specs I would say it's fake? I completely agree with you to buy from a reliable seller, but I feel it's one that is referred to, but I get the impression that if someone want to buy from eBay it's automatically low quality. Just looking for a bit more overall...

    Dahua NVR5216-4KS2 / NVR5216-16P-4KS2

    I understand. For me noise is not an issue as the room is not where anybody is, it's a technical room where I have fiber optic etc. But would you say the heat from the internal power supply can give a heating issue so it's best to use the non Poe version or is it just the noise?

    Dahua HDW5231R-Z failing SD-cards

    True, but thought it was no point naming stores we have here as it will make no sense outside Norway. Its a store equal to bestbuy in the US so they should not be fake. Maybe a bad batch if its no known issues with the cameras and some brands SD cards.

    Dahua HDW5231R-Z failing SD-cards

    Is it any experience with the HDW5231R-Z not being nice to some SD cards? I bought 6 128GB sd cards (original) for my cameras, and it finds my SD card and can format it, but after 5 minutes the SD card die. Took the card out of the camera, and mounted it in my computer, and its dead - cant be...

    Dahua NVR5216-4KS2 / NVR5216-16P-4KS2

    I have tried to do some research and want to use a NVR for my Dahua cameras as an all in one solution. Is the NVR5216-16P-4KS2 still the "best" consumer grade NVR from dahua? I do got a couple of cisco POE switches, but it doesnt seem to be much price difference between the POE and non POE...

    Currently best Dahua camera?

    Thank you. I decided to go for 6 PC-HDW5231R-Z and two POE switches. Is it any benefit of using "branded" Dahua switches or will everything work? I sent a list to a couple of dealers including the ali express one that seems to be popular in here so lets see what I can end up with.

    Im getting a bit confused by all product numbers, so just putting out the question here: As of December 2017, what is the best all round PTZ Dahua dome camera for outside use (model number) that is sold on ebay (or so) - how to spot real / fake versions and also is supported by Blue Iris?

    Nest / camera recommendation

    I was going to do surveilance and bought 3x nest cameras only to see they are all locked behind an extremely expensive pay wall and "no" possibility to run them locally (they work in blue iris, but who know how long that method will work). So I decided to return the cameras. Was thinking to go...
