    Review-OEM IPC-T2231T-ZS Ver 2, 2mp Varifocal Starlight Camera

    I was not able to update based on what the video said. However, as fenderman said above, this camera is based on the dahula 1831e and you can find a thread where Andy has posted the newer 4k firmware for this camera. I can report that this does currently work. Side note, the shield on top of...

    Not my video but should give you a Better idea. You can add 8 cameras or so, but only one can be vieweerd at a time. The unit defaults to the door bell cam each time. I'd you do not ha e the doorbell from dahua it will give you an error

    Dahua VTH1550CH not powering up when connected to Dahua NVR (photos attached)

    I can only see one at a time as far as I have figured out. to hang on a wall it just depends. If you do not use Dahua special PoE you will need to run a 12V line with it also.

    Dahua VTO2111D-WP Information and Hacking

    I agree. Wasn't sure if there was some wired, atleast power option, Specs look decent tho. Oh! Does your door bell make a voice when someone pushes button. i.e "Calling now" Well short list. 1. Picture quality not great/ hard to see someone if your door bell faces west. 2. Does not work with...

    Alexa or Firestick support for Dahua NVR or Camera?

    Attempted burglary and mail theft at homes on my street - is this camera enough?

    I know this is old, but thought I would chime in. You will need a zwave hub. There are many out there. Samsung Smart things come to mind. or Aerotech gen 5 zwave USB stick, but this option need some home automation to control it. Depending on which you choose depends on how things can be...
