    Neighbors wheels stolen

    My neighbors wheel theft is what prompted me to upgrade my cameras. Did someone call the police or was he just driving by? Looks like he missed them by about 9 minutes.

    Hickvision firmware question

    Is there a particular reason you're wanting to upgrade? Unless there is something in the latest firmware you want / need you are better off staying where you are. This forum is littered with threads of people bricking their DVR/NVR's and cameras just because they "wanted" to be on the...

    Camera recommendations for parking garage

    Thanks for all the input. Looks like I will be going with a 2MP Hik dome. I think I remember klasipca old signature had the 4MP Hik dome as the worst night image.

    Camera recommendations for parking garage

    True, nothing is going to be perfect in this situation. Just trying to minimize post installation issues. To me a turret just seems more enticing to mess with.

    Camera recommendations for parking garage

    With a dome you can use security screws and lock it down more than you can with a turret. With a turret you can use force and adjust the camera angle with no tools. Plus the turret has the plastic ring that is just twisted on. The garage is located in a high crime / homeless area so I...

    Camera recommendations for parking garage

    I need to install 6 cameras in a parking garage that is poorly lit. Ceiling height is about 8ft and the cameras will be wall mounted about 6ft off the ground. I can't ceiling mount them due to pipe obstructions. Due to location they will be easy prey to vandals so that pretty much rules...

    Camera Placement recomendation

    +1 for the 4-6mm Turrets. 6mm are a little harder to find though. The matrix IR's are far superior to traditional IR's found in the 2032 bullets in my opinion. klasipca's Longse suggestion is also a good choice from everything I've read and footage I have seen. I just don't have any...

    Kids throwing eggs at cars from the back of a pickup

    I was out of town when it happened. My neighbor who's car was egged and knows about my system talked to the cop and he left his card at my door asking for the video. Picked it up 2 days later. I heard the cops tracked them down but that is all I know.

    The video posted is from my Hik 2032 12mm. I'm using my Huisun Mini PTZ as a dedicated plate reader. Also using openalpr to database plates.

    Kids throwing eggs at cars from the back of a pickup

    This is like the 3rd year in a row high school kids have thrown eggs at cars in my neighborhood during spring break. Thanks to my Mini PTZ I also captured their plate. Notice the 3rd truck on left windshield when they drive by. At least the driver used his blinker.

    Mini PTZ V2 Suddenly Stopped Cold

    Mine is the 10X. Anyway, not worth fighting over it with Monica. It's not ideal but I can deal with it. Hopefully I won't have any issues with my 2 speed domes I received last week. Have yet to test those.

    Mini PTZ V2 Suddenly Stopped Cold

    Maybe that's why POE isn't working on one of my cams. Even though I have the V10-E version I don't seem to have a POE board.

    Mini PTZ V2 Suddenly Stopped Cold

    Try using an external power supply (bypass POE) and see what you get. I have a V2 that will not power with POE.

    MINI PTZ V2 - POE not working

    Camera works when I use a power supply but not with POE. It is the -E version so it is a POE camera. I'm trying to open it up to see if there is a loose connection but once I remove the 4 screws it only comes apart about 1/4". Has anyone taken one of these apart before? Thanks!

    That all depends on the application. What are you going to use it for? Inside, outside? Are you looking for bullet, dome, turret, etc?

    Yeah, I wouldn't buy one. But if your looking to go black and want matrix IR it's your best option.
