2022 EmpireTech Chirstmas Sales

Ugh....so I guess I missed those prices. I just ordered one from his amazon storefront and also DM'd him to ask if I could also buy one of the refurbs and how to pay for it. Hopefully he replies soon.

That's all explained in the first post.
He's in Hong Kong, so he's 12hrs off from us.

Why would you buy elsewhere lol. And his prices changed the Sunday before Thanksgiving!

I've been off the forum for a couple months b/c of moving. Unfortunately, I had his cameras saved in my Amazon list but never saw the alerts saying there was a "price drop since added".

Prolly Amazon covering up deals from seller's that did not pay bozo a fee to display are not displaying the "Amazon's choice" badging

Ok, somebody check my math. I've done my best to compute the odds of winning and if I'm even close in my math you won't get these odds with Powerball! Very generous Andy!

Good luck everyone

Tracks the price over time of any product... Just paste the link of your amazon product in the search bar at the top. Amazon price tracker, Amazon price history charts, price watches, and price drop alerts.

Would the refurbished IPC-T2431T-AS work with a Lorex NVR?
Thanks

Yes it will since Lorex is Dahua OEM and so is this camera, but you should confirm with your model number that is can handle the resolution of the camera.

Prize	Total Tickets	Winning Tickets	Odds of Winning (1 ticket)	Odds of Winning (2 tickets)	Odds of Winning (3 tickets)
Grand Prize	365​	1​	0.3%​	0.5%​	0.8%​
Special	365​	2​	0.5%​	1.1%​	1.6%​
1st	365​	12​	3.3%​	6.5%​	9.5%​
2nd	365​	12​	3.3%​	6.5%​	9.5%​
3rd	365​	10​	2.7%​	5.4%​	8.0%​
4th	365​	15​	4.1%​	8.1%​	11.8%​
5th (US)	365​	7​	1.9%​	3.8%​	5.6%​
5th (non-US)	365​	17​	4.7%​	9.1%​	13.3%​
Any 1st-4th	365​	52​	14.2%​	26.5%​	36.9%​
Any (US)	365​	59​	16.2%​	29.7%​	41.1%​
Any (non-US)	365​	69​	18.9%​	34.2%​	46.7%​

For you statistic nerds, here's my calculation:


Odds of losing: (<total tickets> - <winning tickets>) / <total tickets>
So, for 1st Prize there are 365 total tickets with 12 winning tickets to be drawn. Odds of losing = (365 - 12) / 365 = 0.967 or 96.7%

Odds of winning with 1 ticket is 1 - <odds of losing>.
So, for 1st Prize odds of winning are 1 - .9671 = .0329 or 0.3%

Odds of winning with 2 tickets is 1 - <odds of losing>^2.
So, for 1st Prize odds of winning with 2 tickets are 1 - .9671^2 = 0.0647 or 6.5%

Odds of winning with 3 tickets is 1 - <odds of losing>^3.
So, for 1st Prize odds of winning with 3 tickets are 1 - .9671^3 = 0.0954 or 9.5%

Unless he's putting the tickets back in, IE: someone can win more than once. The odds change as the drawing goes on. no?
