    Buying advice - residential property

    Generally I’m all about recommending that particular ptz but it looks like you have several trees which may get in the way of taking full advantage of it. I’d put that money towards something that will have a chance of getting a license plate such as...

    bidens incredible transition to electric cars

    Non-ethanol is a must for any small engine in my book. I would say at least 75% of what I cut around here is Osage Orange (hedge) it’s pretty tough and burns extremely hot but sparks a lot. It essentially will not rot and was used for fence posts quite often if you could find a straight piece...

    bidens incredible transition to electric cars

    I’ve basically switched to exclusively using battery powered chainsaws. Quiet enough to not worry about hearing protection and it’s ready as soon as I pick it up, no yanking on the cord and waiting for it to warm up enough to be useable. Most of the time it’s the 14” 60v Dewalt top handle since...

    Tendelux IR Illuminator AI4 Infrared Light

    They’re pretty decent little units for less than or right at the price of a fast food order for 3 depending on the 10 or 20w

    Tendelux IR Illuminator AI4 Infrared Light

    I run two 20w Tendelux off one of these. They may have something less powerful but whatever you use try to find one UL listed. Not that the light is but at least it’s 12v https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B08TGR1XX9?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title

    Progressive Liberal Hypocrisy

    And at least one of the firearms was stolen. There should be a law against stealing firearms so nobody would do that :rolleyes:

    The 8-32mm may work for a hallway. Do you feel like you need more optical zoom now?

    The official "WTF" thread

    I’ve had stuff arrive at the Kansas City distribution center (which means it should arrive here and be out for delivery the next day) fly to california, sit there for a couple days before it ends up on a truck headed back to KC and get delivered 1.5 to 2 weeks after the original estimated...

    That’s what I was afraid of. This is the link I have saved that I believe shows everything available on Amazon at the moment, on the other hand it may not https://www.amazon.com/s?me=A329YQ83EBQGJF&marketplaceID=ATVPDKIKX0DER

    Just wanted to double check that you went with the turret version as the only S3 4K bullet version is the Z4 8-32mm lens listed on Amazon?

    I realize we’re talking about bullets here but the S3 turret version is available as well. I don’t have one so I can’t really speak for it but you’re already talking about going from a 2 series to a 5, then throw in the S3 version and you’re on a whole other level from what you have. If a bullet...

    Review- New Design Tendelux 10 Watt IR illuminator.

    They were quick to respond to my question about a 30 degree light since the box of one of the first ones had a check box for 30, 60, or 90. I didn’t like the answer of having to make a bulk order of 100 units I believe it was but they did offer me a discount coupon. I declined since I already...

    Review- New Design Tendelux 10 Watt IR illuminator.

    They’re a man made product subject to fail like anything else. I do agree they should last longer than 2 months, but I have a few still going strong since August of 2022. Some are slightly under cover, one that’s fully exposed and all they got was a little dielectric grease in the barrel plug...

    B5442E-ZE video jumping back and forth.

    DMSS is the new version, gDMSS is the old version for Android. Keep in mind these cameras are not really designed to zoom in and out like a ptz camera, more of finding the right zoom for the situation and leave it. The zoomed out picture looks pretty good for now though

    Looking for 8tbPurple HDD - Anyone see any presidents day deals?

    If you sign up at westerndigital.com they’ll give you a 10% coupon. At least then you can feel relatively secure it’s actually what it says it is and not some random open box who knows who did what with it

    B5442E-ZE video jumping back and forth.

    I believe they’ve switched to just DMSS as that app has not been updated since 2018. If your 5442 is zoomed out all the way then the Z12 will be way too much zoom to be that close

    What are these objects in sky?

    Seen it one time, it’s quite the sight. Imagine what people in areas that have never even heard of a satellite are thinking as they go by. Not quite as cool but still amazes me how they can tell you when, where to look, and how long it will be visible is the space station going over...

    Would that make any difference on the camera? It’s still there powered up, I would think that should only matter for the SD card if there was one in it

    Lightning bolt

    Captured these a few years ago. Barn and tree are still there, I made a bee line for the barn as soon as the NVR came back up and I viewed the playback. No cameras lost but it restarted the system. Could not find any signs of damage or strike to the barn, the tree had obvious signs of a strike
