    Black Friday Discount From Andy

He's not Amazon but the next best thing. To process an order and receive it within 5 days from China...

    which Ip camera to pick?

    Dahua Starlight IPC-HDW5231R-ZE 800 meter capable ePOE @looney2ns did a direct comparison of the two cameras. Seems the differences are marginal and for most it comes down to the cosmetic appearance. I personally like the 5231-Z as it blends into the white trim on the exterior of my house. The...

    New in FL researching system design

    No problem. I started off the exact same way. I ended up purchasing a Dell OptiPlex I5-6500, BV-Tech unmanaged POE Switch and use Blue Iris. I have since purchased 4 of the IPC-HDW5231R-Z turrets and one IPC-HDBW4231F-AS | Dahua Technology - Dahua Technology for a front door camera. Here is a...

    Opinions on Camera locations and type

    Here is a good example of the difference between 4MP and 2MP If you go with the IPC-HDW5231R-Z | Dahua Technology - Dahua Technology varifocal you won't have to guess between 2.8 or 3.6mm. You may find you need something in between or more. These go from 2.7mm to 12mm. I would stick with...

    Black Friday Discount From Andy

    If you sent him an email with what you want to order and your Paypal username he will send you an invoice. I've placed two orders this way with no issues. I'm sure he's processing orders as they come in so as soon as he gets to yours he will send it.

    Black Friday Discount From Andy

    The 4231F-AS would definitely work for an indoor camera and has a very small footprint. It can be painted to blend in with any background. Some guys are using these for their front door cameras. Depending on your set up and what you want out of the camera I use a few of these 1080P HD High...

    ANNKE I61DR 2MP (Hikvision Cube Clone)

    IPC-HDBW4231F-AS Not WiFi but WiFi is generally unreliable. It has built in Mic but only 1 way audio. It's a Starlight so should be great at night. Mini wedge dome so small form factor. Front door ID camera IPC-HDBW4231F? You can paint it to blend in.

    ANNKE I61DR 2MP (Hikvision Cube Clone)

    What functions of this camera are you wanting in a different camera (2 way audio, PIR, alarm function, WiFi, etc.)? Where do you plan on putting the camera? Are you running Blue Iris or an NVR?

    A microSD card is not necessary if you are recording to a hard drive. As mat200 said you will need a larger HDD.

    How to find hidden spy camera

    How to find hidden spy camera

    This is an absolute joke. First off how do you have access to the images??? How did you become aware of the images??? If you do have access how can you not figure out where this (imaginary) camera would be placed from the angle of the images? Don't forget the government is watching you through...

    ANNKE I61DR 2MP (Hikvision Cube Clone)

    I don't think anyone would buy any other camera from Annke but since this is a Hik Clone we bought them with no intension of ever using their app. I can test it out but won't be able to do it until late tonight if no one else can test it before then.
