One of those "this will only take a few minutes" job has now turned into a time-consuming head scratcher. I planned a camera location for above the middle of garage door opening, but the framing has got me confused. After drilling the hole from the outside for the bracket I stuck an endoscope in...

Over the last few years of installing cameras one of the tools that I really wanted was a decent quality ladder. Back in March a local Home Depot had a huge shipment of Werner Multi Max Pro 20' ladders priced at $179, (now $219 :rolleyes:) so I thought about it and bought one...

Does anyone have any hands-on experience with these types of touch screen overlay digitizers? https://www.amazon.com/stores/ChengyingTouchDevice/page/6986370B-E3A2-4C47-905A-D6307BDFE2E2?ref_=ast_bln Thanks :thumb:

I had no idea that the AI has a model for frisbees! :)

I was not quite sure in which forum to post this, but just curious if anyone else has experienced this. Those of you who have purchased items on Amazon, including Andy's, have no doubt been sent the email: "Can you answer this question?" from Amazon. I have answered several questions about the...

In the summer of 2021 I bought a video doorbell (VTO2311R-WP) from Andy, but at that time there was very limited inventory on the matching VTH's (touchscreens), so I scoured eBay and found some. Well, of course I did not do my research on the various Generations of VTO's and VTH's, and since...

For the back story, please see my post in the Doorbells Forum. I have a Dahua DHI-VTO1210C-X Apartment Outdoor Station (2-wire power) and three compatible Dahua VTH5221D indoor touchscreens (POE) for sale. All are unused (except for bench testing) and they even have the protective film. I would...

Apologies if this has been covered before - I did scan other DahuaVTO2MQTT posts... We have Kwikset 916 Z-wave deadbolt locks that are managed by Home Assistant. We also have a Dahua VTO2311R-WP doorbell and three VTH2621GW-WP monitors. There are numerous times when a friend rings the front...

Disregarding the discussion about why we needed a video doorbell, after several weeks of planning and investigating I thought I had arrived at a reasonable solution to installing my VTO2311R-WP. As you can see from this photo, the front door has sidelights and the optimal location is on the door...

Again, thanks everyone for this wonderful resource. I wanted to run CAT5e through an interior wall where I knew there was an existing hole in the top plate because the thermostat wire was run through that wall section. That section of my attic has a subfloor (long story), so I thought it would...

Um, you know that little rubber o-ring on the camera's waterproof connector?: uhhhh... don't carry it in your mouth while wriggling your way through the attic... :oops:

Thank you everyone! I have received so much from this community, and I am very appreciative of all the insight and knowledge (hard won sometimes, I can tell). I wanted to contribute something, perhaps trivial, and only one of many ways to skin the cat, but I find it useful and am hoping that...
