    Man Attempted To Steal From My Trash

    @mat200 yea its getting so bad here in LA, so much crime its insane and I live in a "good" area. Too difficult to run wires through the concrete slab, I have 2 dummy Axis cameras behind those walls to scare away bad guys but they obviously don't care.

    Ring Alarm Keypad power

    I've had the Ring gen 2 alarm for almost a year now and so far I've never had to charge the keypad before. I have the LED and volume set to really low and also enabled power save mode. I would not go through all of that work to run the wire for it but its up to you.

    IR Works Better During The Rain?

    This might be a stupid question and I might sound like an idiot but here it goes.... Is it just me or does surveillance footage look better at night when its raining compared to when its not? Does IR travel further in the rain?

    Smart PSS Error Help

    @bigredfish thank you for the response. If it was a network issue wouldn't also occur from the web based playback?
