    Hikvision 4K IP Turret playback

    For what it is worth mine are the 2385 and yes they are 20FPS. I had also tried 15FPS with similar poor results on playback when the iframe was still set at the default of 50. Either frame rate works fine when set with the identical iframe rate. The Frame Rate setting on my NVR, at the high...

    IR light - 5 model comparison

    I've been mostly lurking here for awhile and decided to contribute. I've been testing and installing IP cameras at my house the last few months. One Axis and 6 different models of LTS and have found that spiders irritate the hell out of me. After trying auxiliary IR lighting near a couple...

    Tool of the Day - MagnePull

    My son always gave me crap about keeping my splintering fiberglass rods too long instead of replacing them. Glad to see I'm not the only one.
