Thanks, but direct Shippers from China are having trouble sending cameras out (issues with Dahua headquarters).
I've heard of that too. I wanted the new Tioc Pro Vario but she couldn't order it. It will certainly be really expensive in the USA.
Did you reach out to @EMPIRETECANDY ? He might be able to get it for you.
That is grey market dahua is killing them, dahua never have any business with Chinese alibaba sellers or eBay sellers.that means no warranty from dahua.
Yes we can do the local USA shipment, but this one is not cheap. Around 3k usd with shipping, need to book stocks.
Yes this is the new strict way to protect the local sellers, those Ali sellers can’t book any new models anymore.
Thanks for the explanation. They had told me the same thing, that there is no warranty on the cameras.
Hi EmpireTEcandy. How much time does it require for the camera to arrive after ordering it from you? Are you an authorized reseller for Dahua? Sorry for my ignorance.
Yes, he's a authorized reseller that we all purchase from. He would most likely direct ship it to where you live from his HQ in China.
Great guy, great company. He'll take care of you.
We sell OEM dahua, same hardware as the dahua logo ones. Normally need 3 weeks, i just booked one of this camera for our customer in US this week. Yes, it's a monster PTZ, so can't use POE.
Hi EmpireTECandy, So from what I understand, you sell Dahua products but you have rebranded it under your company name "EmpitreTech"? Can you explain how your warranty would work and if the software/firmware is dahua or your own proprietary software? Can I get a price quote on this:
Do you also do installations? If I get a local installer, will that void the warranty?
Shipping is to Florida.
Thanks!

Andy's cameras are Dahua OEM equipment sold under the names Loryta and Empiretech. He also supplies them to the ipcamtalk store. They come with 2 year warranties.
Some of my cameras I have bought from Andy from his Amazon store come as Dahua cams in Dahua boxes with Dahua logos, and some are not logo'd - I think it depends on how many cameras Andy buys if he gets them with the Dahua Logo or not. But regardless, they are Dahua units. If you get a unit that has Dahua on it, then the camera GUI will say Dahua; otherwise it will simply say IP Camera but looks identical except without the logo. Some of his cameras may come with EmpireTech stamped on them as well.
His cameras and NVRs are international models and many of them are not available through Dahua USA authorized dealers, but his cameras and NVRs are usually better than what you can find from a USA authorized dealer.
You can update the firmware on Andy's cameras and NVRs from the Dahua website, thus proving they are real Dahua. But you will find that the firmware we get from him is actually better and more recent than what is on the Dahua website because many members here provide feedback to Andy and then Dahua makes modifications to the firmware and sends back to him and then he sends out to his customers. These have been great improvements that Dahua doesn't even update their firmware and add to their website. So many of us are running a newer firmware than those that purchase Dahua cameras through professional installers. Smart IR on the 5442 series is one such improvement. Autotracking on the 49225 and 49425 PTZ is another. We got the next version of AI SMD 3.0 prior to anyone else as well.
Look at the threads here where members are actually testing firmware and improving it for Dahua - find a Dahua dealer with that type of relationship that Andy has with Dahua - I don't think you will find it. Look at the Dahua 4k camera on the 1/1.2" sensor as an example - Dahua provides cameras to Andy to sell before Dahua even made it available and look at all the improvements being made to the firmware from input from customers right here on this site. And the kicker is, we are not Dahua's target market - it is the professional installers...
Yes, Ryan,
What i sell is totally same as logo ones. 2 years warranty, I send you the DM for further information about this PTZ.
