    Ebay $17 for broken/parts 4k Lorex ( thing worked!)

    Wow! Looks like they hired someone to paint the house and they sprayed over everything!

    The official "WTF" thread

    3 Phases and the fuses pulled. Lineman kept the bear from climbing up. The arc and bear parts would have probably ruined the lineman's day if it had gone up!

    Temporary POE connection.

    Thanks! I will buy some for the next iteration. This was a proof of concept right now and it is already retired!

    Temporary POE connection.

    So finally, here is what the box internal would look like. Those are 1 ft. cat 5e cables. I had a terrible time making shorter ones so gave up. With all the cables, it is a tight fit in the box. Here is the final mount. My intent was to be able to easily add a different camera to the...

    Temporary POE connection.

    Another camera is currently mounted on that box. The second POE will just be for testing in that area instead of running another cable.

    Temporary POE connection.

    I never did get a G3/4 connector but did get something recommended by @TonyR My thoughts are just to use this temporarily to test a new camera. I did see this and it seemed too unwieldy.

    How in the hell does one talk to Dahua??

    I asked ChatGPT for a supplier of this type of grommet and it was a dead end. But as I type this I remember that as a kid, we had a toy(?) that was RTV (?) and forms that we could make things like cockroaches to put in ice cubes. Could one come up with a form and use that stuff to make a bushing?

    Temporary POE connection.

    I bought this one. https://amzn.to/4pfxXvB I bought a PFA6330X to mount a second camera in the same location without running a second cable. I was just wondering if anyone had experience doing something similar. Last night, for the life of me, I couldn’t figure out how copy a link from the...

    Temporary POE connection.

    I’ll try and verbalize this as best I can. I have a PFA 121 mounting box. On one side it has a G3/4 “pipe” plug. I bought a POE extender that is small enough to fit into the box. I want one port of the extender to go to the permanently installed camera. The second port will go to an RJ45 female...
