how to dissassemble this reolink RLC-820A?

[tung256]

i bought this camera and need to paint it black.
how can pop the "eye" piece out so i can paint it and the "shell" as well?

You may wanna test that camera at night with motion before you paint it and can't return it...unless it is just for animal watching...

I would just be careful painting it - I usually set a camera flat on a piece of cardboard and paint and haven't had an issue yet.

Is this the Paint Shop Pro forum now? LOL
How about some painters tape and a patient 10 minutes with a pencil and some scissors.

I use masking tape and a razor knife, not a box cutter, a razor knife. If I wanted to disassemble a Reolink I'd use a sledge hammer, quick and efficient.

My exact same thought.

Hi @tung256

normally, once you have the camera in hand .. should be easy enough to figure out how to separate the "eye ball" from the base ..

The Dahua ones I have it is just a matter of loosening a screw and separating the base from the eyeball ..
