    Dahua dual cam issues? HELP!!!!

    This is what I'm guessing I will have to do...I've had trouble with this camera from the start...and of course, it's the hardest to get to. I guess I got a lemon because I have two other "boobie" cams and they work just fine.

    Dahua dual cam issues? HELP!!!!

    All, I'm trying to troubleshoot a camera that keeps going offline randomly. To start, installed the whole system myself (14 Dahua IPCams - all bought directly from Andi). The system has been up and running for a couple of years now, and I have all of the cameras running through BlueIris (the...

    And this is why I've said time and time again Andy is the best. Gives me the piece of mind I need...but first time I notice a droop, these cams will be shipped back to Andy...quick...fast...and in a hurry. Good thing is I can trust him to do the same on the return.

    I ordered 2 of the 5231's and I couldn't move them with both hands when they were locked in place.

    I agree no weather or rain will move it as much as I did, but the problem is that a minor move at the camera equals a major move at distance.

    Ok, so I finally got home and made a video. The set screw is as far in as I would be comfortable with setting it without stripping it. The camera is simply sitting on the ground and is not attached to anything. With minimal force I'm able to move the camera eyeball in all directions. Now...

    When I get home tonight, I will film a video of me moving the eyeball with two fingers. The issue is they used a different type of material that doesn't grab the eyeball as well as the 5231. It's a white bumper that is thinner than the 5231's bumper and it doesn't properly grab the eyeball. I...

    It's bad enough that I won't put it up without bolstering the bumpers with something. It won't fall immediately, but over time I picture the camera will sag by either its weight or vibrations from wind/movement.

    @mmmburritos I was told the same thing from Andy. Said it was only an issue because of a couple complaints. I was hoping that was the case, but no joy. It doesn't appear to be the set screw that's the problem, it's the rubber bumpers. They don't seem to be tall enough to really latch onto the ball.

    Well I can confirm the quality control issues others are speaking about. I just received my order from Andy and the 5442 can easily be manipulated and moved while the set screw is in place and tightened down. I ordered the 5231 as well, and it wouldn't move if I took a hammer to it. On a...

    Anyone having any issues with the DB-11 defaulting to b/w. I have configured it numerous times and after a couple of days it switches to b/w and stays on that setting no matter what time of day. I can switch it back to color, but the setting never holds for more than 24-48hrs. I've reset the...
