We’re getting 2 installed next week, 1 on each site.

If it’s working when I get back on shift I’ll try and get some screen grabs. I won’t be able to get video capture due to the usual personal data stuff. I presume HR will be controlling it, not engineering.

I do feel we’re a little late to the party but it shows the company is doing all it can to protect its staff.

Well, I received it. It's unbranded on the camera and box, but the firmware is this:

Web interface looks identical to the DH-TPC-BF5421 I bought last week.

It came in a sealed bag. I offered $170 on the OBO on eBay and they accepted. So total price w/tax and shipping was $199. They have 10 more, so I may bite for a few more.

First capture with it on the kitchen counter - all stock.

I wonder if they are S1 or S2 versions.

The S1 versions were problematic with triggering. I spent months troubleshooting with Dahua engineers on the problem and they couldn't resolve it.

The S2 is rock solid though. I think they learned on the S1.

Won’t matter, for me it’s just a starter cam to get a feel how useful they might be.
Probably give it to my buddy with the goat farm after I get done tinkering with it

A thermal is so ridiculously useful. I don't use my S1 as a spotter, but it is incredible for seeing motion and stuff way further than you can see or visible cams. The S2 and newer I use as a spotter.

We had an incident where a door checker didn't come past my house and none of the visible cams saw him, but the thermal did and you could see his movement 10-12 houses away.

Build date of the software in the screenshot was 2020 June 3. Do you remember if S2 was released before that?
