    Important:About making order for dahua From Empiretech Andy

    Thanks for the classification on that... I would not want long term members to think I was talking about your warranty... Note: I ordered my Equipment from Andy, because Andy supports the forum and he is who the forum recommends... So why not purchase from someone who supports the forum...

    Rather interesting to watch this character...

    Yup, I have the Elk M1 for several years now, no problems with the alarm at all, I also used it to open and close my chicken coop door in the morning and close it in the evenings. Saved me from going outside to do it manually. Nice system for security, or to open or turn things on and off etc...

    2MP IPC-HDW5231R-Z, VS 8MP IPC-HDW5830R-Z

    I have a question about the 2mp Dahua Starlight Varifocal Turret IPC-HDW5231R-Z, and the 8MP IR Eyeball Network Camera IPC-HDW5830R-Z since the 2MP IPC-HDW5231R-Z is good in the dark... if you have a lighted up porch wouldn't the 8PM be better for mug shots if you need to crop and print?

So whether it is made by a good manufacture or not, I will not know...

    Yes I understand that, but what effect will it have on surveillance video recordings? That's a great prince, but the shipping is $31.43 Total $121.42 but thanks, I will take a look and see what I can do. Maybe I'll just eat it, as I did with the Reolink :-)
