Their ebay is starting to come back with some cameras. Nothing on their AE store yet, only 3d printer stuff.

Anytime I've contacted Vivi she got back to me really quick. They prob. genuinely have some issues going on.

Yes I'm sure they have issues in that Hikvision are getting them kicked off Aliexpress. The issue I have is the lies, lies and more damn lies that they reply with.

Not so sure. Some 3MP cameras are starting to reappear

I would but I don't like that it can't do 60 Hz

Is there any issue if you use 50Hz in the states vs 60Hz? I see lots of cams from China are only 50Hz, since they use PAL over there.

in general, no. but sometimes, depending on the lighting in the scene and the exposure time used,
you'll get some flickering in a 50hz cam that you wont see on a 60hz cam.
for example, with cheap AC LED strings (xmas lights) that don't use real rectifiers...

Just to follow-up and say my other camera arrived safe and sound. Whatever happened that weekend they didn't ship my camera as it was due to go out on the Monday. Now that they are back up and running they sent mine out and it arrived yesterday. I did have to chase them though.....

Considering buying another 6 although maybe not of this seller as they don't have the 6mm

Would these work with a US version NVR?
 
Re: Smokin Deal on Hikvision DS-2cd2335-i 3MP - Mar 29th for $69.97 from a trusted ve

I have five of these cameras on my newly arrived DS7608NI-I2.The nvr is white box U.S upgradable and all cameras work fine.

I have 6mm DS-2CD2332-i - original updateable US version from Ali for about 90USD. For this price I would never think about the hacked versions.

Probably the ones from the flood.

No problem, they are IP66 :-D

Depends on the flood: IP66 is "protected against heavy seas or powerful jets of water" flood protection would require IP68 "protected against complete, continuous submersion in water."

So are these cameras with the English firmware? How can you tell?
 
Re: Smokin Deal on Hikvision DS-2cd2335-i 3MP - Mar 29th for $69.97 from a trusted ve

Is there anything that the US versions do that the Chinese hacked multi-language cannot, other than upgrade with Hikvision-supported firmware?

For one thing, the "United States" version are able to run at NTSC 60hrz whereas the Chinese Region cameras only run PAL 50hrz.

Another issue which may weigh on your decision is that -- when we finally go to war with China -- the Chinese Region cameras will explode and kill your family.
