So do you have to watch the off-internet cameras on your LAN by using your computer screen, or can you broadcast the camera video wirelessly to your phone without internet or cell service?

I see. (I’m not a techy person, so please excuse my non-techy language). When you said, you keep your cameras off the internet, I thought you meant completely eliminating the internet from the loop, like grid down. In other words, if your cameras and computer were running on battery power, and...

So does that mean you don’t get any notifications to your phone? I thought notifications had to be generated by going through the Dahua server first before going to your phone? So do you get phone notifications with your cameras being off the internet?

I know this is probably an incredibly stupid question…but will a Dahua IPC-T5442T-ZE powered by POE via a dumb POE switch (and a router connected to the internet) send push notifications (people/vehicle) and live stream to an iPhone via the DMSS app? Or does the IPC-T5442T-ZE require an NVR or...

Ok, so you didn’t take the hint from my last post so I’ll be more blunt…Thank you, but I don’t need advice or information or questioning about my ability to power or maintain my NVR/camera or battery system. I have lots of smart people around me (and I am smart too) so I can get any information...

I’m assuming you don’t know much about ARES and amateur radio operators in general? We are very well-versed in all types of battery chemistries, load capacities and their maintenance (my mentor and I build our own AGM trickle/float chargers). But I will be using 12 volt LiFePO4 batteries bc 12...

Thanks for the comment! I am an amateur radio operator involved with emergency communications for our local served agencies during grid down situations, usually coastal storms. So operating without power in extreme weather conditions is our norm and the center of our prepping and training...

Looking for off-grid NVR/PoE IP camera solution | IP Cam Talk i sent him an email!

Thanks!

Thanks so much for the info and the link! I didn’t even realize I was approaching this whole thing the wrong way. So most of the NVR’s seem to use PoE. How do I go about searching for NVR’s that do not have PoE and are 12 volt? Seems like it’s looking for a needle in a haystack when I look online

We lose power for days on end when strong coastal storms blow through. I am looking for an NVR/PoE IP camera setup that can run off 12 volt LiFePO4 batteries. The batteries will be maintained using 12 VDC portable solar panels and a small wind turbine. Seems like most NVR’s are 48 VDC. HOA rules...
