Morning guys,

New here, great forum learnt heaps.

My first question, I'm installing a few 2532's and one of them will sit under an eave next to an alarm strobe. Do you guys think this will cause video interference at all?

Thanks!

It may cause a problem while the strobe is flashing...i would mount it temporarily and test it at night.

Thanks fenderman,

Forgot to say the "strobe" is an LED type if that makes a difference.

The source of light wont matter much....the flashing light may cause the video issues as the camera adjusts to the increased light, but likely will not...it cannot hurt to test it.

Thanks!

I'll be pointing it away from the strobe anyway just wondered if it will cause video feed issues, the flashing isn't all that bright being an LED one.

Just don't want to start drilling a hole to find out later it's not a good location...lol
