    Owl Mouse

    As a Biology undergrad, I had to collect Owl Pellets for a research paper. Interesting that the owl will encase the prey's bones, within its fur, for release as a Pellet. Amazon Barn Owl Pellets Stocking Stuffers ;)

    Long Time Noob

    After suffering the "unconfirmed email" snafu, I decided I should introduce myself. I started with these forums years ago, when the video reviews consisted of watching garbage trucks go around a cul-de-sac and videos from that same member's lake cabin. I took a time off years ago, and some...

    Dahua eyeball camera mounting - it sees too much of my wall. Any advice for installation/mounting?

    Unless you require the view, you can change the camera's view from horizontal to vertical (hallway) aspect. EDIT: I just looked at your pic :oops: Do you have the mount placed in a vertical position, rather than mounted horizontally?

    Camera placement

    @samplenhold Great way to test cameras and locations! Question- I'm located in the USA, is that a standard or metric socket inside your plastic container?

    Cable - CAT 5, CAT 6 CAT 7 or CAT 8 Too many to choose for a noob

    If I were redoing my home, then I would use 6a, but the 5e is currently doing well. I hope my 10/100 cameras don't push the limits of the cat 6 :) I was seated when I googled the Levitron connectors price, since we have their panel, and being seated did not help. Purchased True Cable's...

    Cable - CAT 5, CAT 6 CAT 7 or CAT 8 Too many to choose for a noob

    $156/500ft The cat 6a shielded 1000ft was $255, but too many reviews of needing "special" connectors due to cable diameter, and the "stiffness" of the cable was a concern, since I am not doing a new construction install. Question; What RJ45 connectors would people recommend, or should I stay...

    Review-SD4A425DB-HNY 1/2.8" CMOS 4MP 25x Starlight Auto-tracking MiniPTZ

    Quick shot from driveway with MiniPTZ location seen (red). I am also having our Color4K-T180 mounted in the center above the garage door(red). The blue line above the large front window is tentative location Color4K-T (if wife approves).

    Review-SD4A425DB-HNY 1/2.8" CMOS 4MP 25x Starlight Auto-tracking MiniPTZ

    I took a photo and mark with red the approximate wall location I was hoping to place the MiniPTZ. B&H $92 Oh My! I think they saw duplo's post and jacked-up the price. Edit: I want to put our Color4K-T above the large window (pfb203 approx 7ft) but my wife "needs to think about that location".

    Review-SD4A425DB-HNY 1/2.8" CMOS 4MP 25x Starlight Auto-tracking MiniPTZ

    "the PFB211W and the ptz next to each other but not fully assemble together yet." That is the explanation exactly, thank you! If the only issue is cutting/removing the piece for cable pass-through, then I will verify exactly what to order, then visit Andy's shop. Edit: Ugh, attempting to locate...

    Review-SD4A425DB-HNY 1/2.8" CMOS 4MP 25x Starlight Auto-tracking MiniPTZ

    Reading the original PFB211W instructions, what is "Also this one need waterproof-cable-joint-kit , like PFB203W/PFB204W for 5442-series." and Is the gap observed in #23 pic normal?

    Review-SD4A425DB-HNY 1/2.8" CMOS 4MP 25x Starlight Auto-tracking MiniPTZ

    At least she approves of the cameras, and I don't feel dirty looking at the camera forum thinking "one day i can get a camera, too!" I want to put the PTZ on the front corner eave of our house, and I'm trying to keep the camera installations looking cohesive and fluid.

    Review-SD4A425DB-HNY 1/2.8" CMOS 4MP 25x Starlight Auto-tracking MiniPTZ

    Your installation is so clean that my wife said this is the only mount she approves of using for our MiniPTZ. Andy's store has the PFB203W mounts for my Color4k-T180s and Color4K-T, and the mount you used would match perfectly. Does anyone know if there are any mounts for this camera that are...
