    I need more hobbies.. Working on a PVC post discrete camera housing... (a better birdhouse)

    What happens if you remove that soffit? Could you drill a hole in the stucco above the doorbell area to get down into the wall?

    Trench fiber, cat6 etc

    Never ran fiber, but the run I am looking to make for ethernet and low voltage will use 3/4".

    I need more hobbies.. Working on a PVC post discrete camera housing... (a better birdhouse)

    I have an unfinished utility area in the basement right at the front door, so I just came up through the bottom plate and wall.

    I used this post sleeve from Menards. https://www.menards.com/main/building-materials/fencing/vinyl-fencing/4-x-4-x-8-vinyl-fence-post-kit/cmcfwl1116/p-1528353041354-c-5772.htm?exp=false I ran rigid conduit from my basement and then converted to the liquid tite conduit. I make them.

    Would a Properly Wired House for Security Cameras Increase its Value?

    Voles are assholes. I am dealing with them right now in my yard. I would be inclined to go Pex solely for the continuous run from start to end.

    Would a Properly Wired House for Security Cameras Increase its Value?

    With 3/4" Pex being about half the cost of rigid 3/4" conduit, you better believe I am going to use it if I can. And it's one solid length and water won't get in? Sign me up.

    Assistance Finding a Dahua 180° FOV POE for use as a SkyCam

    This capture from tonight is a good example of when I say the Color4K-T180 isn't always a good choice. You have a beautiful sunset on the right, but the left, with the light pollution, isn't able to be adjusted independently and uses the same settings as the right half of the image.

    Would a Properly Wired House for Security Cameras Increase its Value?

    My brother is a city inspector. I ask him about stuff all the time. He says when it comes to Low Voltage, there really aren't many guidelines or codes to adhere to. 120v in Pex as conduit? No. Low Voltage ethernet in Pex as conduit? Go for it.

    Cannot add cam to ANY software. please help. Empiretech IPC-T54IR-ZE-S3

    I have done that method for cameras that have already been installed, but end up having some dumb issue down the road. It saves the patch panel dance of getting it on the right network just to change the IP and set up credentials to put it back on the correct network.

    You could also potentially try a soft default instead of a full default. I have had this clear up ONVIF issues before. You will lose settings, but not IP and others required to log back into the camera.

    Are you using H.264 or H.265? Some may not support H.265 encoding.

    What's your opinion on cameras *inside* the home?

    My daughter is 8. I just took the "nanny cam" out of her room. She complained because now she doesn't feel as safe, which I thought it would go the other way. I liked it being there because I could check on her after she goes to bed without needing to go upstairs or disturbing her, but figured...

    Mounts for 5442 ZE

    Commonly refferred to as a cable gland. Most IP cameras come with them, I know the cameras Andy sells do. The bottom bits go over your ethernet cable and make a weather"proof" connection when locked onto the camera side of the cable. You will still want to pack the connection with dielectric...
