Yup, I knew I should have just bought 2 Hiks instead although it was fun but, not that fun.eh, it was only 140 and a test cam anyway....lesson learned...
Which setup did u use to power the cam? How long did the camera last?Yup, I knew I should have just bought 2 Hiks instead although it was fun but, not that fun.
So yours died after ~ 6 weeks. So yours is making a grinding noise? Does the camera still work, ie zoom etc and you just cant pan/tilt of is it really dead.Yup, I knew I should have just bought 2 Hiks instead although it was fun but, not that fun.
Yep, it had two floppy drives and no hard drive when I bought it in 87. I remember paying over $2000 for it but it did include a monochrome (green) monitor.You had TWO floppy drives!? View attachment 12073
I just pulled it off chimney last night so I will be looking closer at it. It tries to go through boot cycle and do the turn around and up etc then at end as it just grinds away.So yours died after ~ 6 weeks. So yours is making a grinding noise?

Mine just posted in the tracking yesterday. I am going to be royally ticked of if I only get 6 weeks out of it.
I can tell that you are just gloating over these postseh, it was only 140 and a test cam anyway....lesson learned...
Dude...I bough my first computer (a Mac!) back in 1984. It had one floppy drive and 128k of memory. It cost $2,500.00! To copy a file from one disk to another meant swapping the floppys disks like 40 times! I can't believe I hung in there. The CPI Calculator says that is $5,799.76 in 2016 dollars! Yikes.Yep, it had two floppy drives and no hard drive when I bought it in 87. I remember paying over $2000 for it but it did include a monochrome (green) monitor.
only gloating with respect to jackbnimble because of his attitude in general. These failures have proven that these cameras are unreliable. They should not be purchased.I can tell that you are just gloating over these posts
Jack if you bought it from Jack he can repair it and my guess will disable poe while providing you with external one
I do believe that I'll be buying one after the next gen is released.only gloating with respect to jackbnimble because of his attitude in general. These failures have proven that these cameras are unreliable. They should not be purchased.
Even though I had one of the Huisun v1 camera's fail, they're still my favorite PTZ camera's, so will most likely purchase more in the future. Like you, I'll probably wait for the next generation.I do believe that I'll be buying one after the next gen is released.
Lol I knew you would love it, first time I haven't heard you argue though which is a nice change. Now perhaps the sales pitch on these junk cameras will die as well although I see another post already about how great these are after a few weeks with the mfg's BS fix. No I won't pay another 40-50 bucks and send mine back to China so they can ship it back with a splitter after they cut the POE connection. I will chalk up my purchase of this V2 10X as my lack of being able to resist the high sales pressures LOL. My next video will be my HIKS showing it burning.only gloating with respect to jackbnimble because of his attitude in general. These failures have proven that these cameras are unreliable.

I argue only when you lie, mislead, or post false information. Dont do those things and there will be no argument.Lol I knew you would love it, first time I haven't heard you argue though which is a nice change.

I've never owned a Mac but had a Commodore 64 around 1984 or 85. I don't remember how much memory it had but my first PC had a whopping 640k. nthego:Dude...I bough my first computer (a Mac!) back in 1984. It had one floppy drive and 128k of memory.

Hopefully yours will be ok. I've only had the one die on the hottest day of the year so far. I have another on the garage that faces east and gets the morning sun but it's been fine since last November. (knock on that wood).First I'm going to find a piece of wood to knock on then I'll say I have 5 of the Mini PTZ's and other than the V2 4X I have had 0 problems. One of the V2 10X is in full sun all day at the Jersey Shore.
