    I was right all along, Dahua IPC-HDW4831EM-ASE - Don't follow the 4K Hype

    From the spec sheet the Dahua IPC-HDW4831EM-ASE is a fixed lens camera - in my experience the varifocal lens cameras (with motorized zoom and focus) always produce better quality images when you compare sensors of the same size, resolution Starvis/Starlight/Backlit sensor etc. Taking the...

    Spiders and insects.

    In the UK there is SpiderX spray - uncertain how effective it is - love the idea of Napalm - Naplam is only one molecule away from petroleum jelly / Vaseline - now which molecule?

    FBI: Delivery drivers involved in Amazon theft ring

    Amazon probably just threw the customers permanently out of Amazon by closing their accounts - can anyone really prove they did not get the item the delivery driver stole? That the box really was empty? That they were given the wrong package? That is why when you see a driver come to your door...

    IPCT recommended firmware updates - ok, it's at your own risk

    Instead of writing only about which camera - consider also how many different camera models use the same firmware file (yes each model will behave a bit differently) see these release notes showing 71 different Dahua camera models all use the same firmware file - you can also see my posts here...

    My UPS Caught Fire Last Night

    The fact that it was a 3-month-old new UPS is a major part of the problem see Bathtub curve - Wikipedia meaning any brand new device is of suspect reliability until any manufacturing defects (not enough thermal grease / incorrectly applied thermal grease - poor solder joint or stray piece of...

    Trying to understand 44xx camera model-number format

    What I want to know is why Dahua 12 Megapixel Cameras (as far as I can see) use Digital WDR (done in the cameras CPU) instead of real WDR (done in the image sensor chip). 8 Megapixel Dahua Cameras have real 120dB WDR but pay more for 12 Megapixel and it is only DWDR. Who makes 12 Megapixel...

    NVR4108-4KS Recordings Paused by Thieves

    As I already said it could just be a Perp looking for excuses to give local Law Enforcement. But Wi-Fi WPA3 is on the way because WPA2 alone is no longer enough (just like WPA1 & WEP are nowadays considered security jokes but back in the day they were thought of as perfectly secure - looking...

    NVR4108-4KS Recordings Paused by Thieves

    My comments:- Does that type of NVR by any chance have an IR Receiver that could have been accessed/operated from outside through a window? Some NVR's have come with TV style IR remote controls. The Wi-Fi network will be vulnerable to KRACK KRACK - Wikipedia it is a vulnerability in the WPA2...

    Buying Cameras from China Shipping / Trade Terms

    Hello there! Currently arranging the purchase of some cameras from China - was wondering how much attention to pay to Trade Terms (also known as "Incoterms 2010").
