    Montavue MTT8108-AISMDAD any good?

    Looking for temporary cameras until I can build out my system. I picked up some amcrest vandal domestic, and (5) 5mp hikvisions but came across these for 90% off, used. $20 instead of 200. I figure these are better than vandal domes. I need day time coverage, not night time. I know weird...

    Cables for less Experiance?

    Yeah im going to run 23awg cat6 unshielded incase I change any of the cameras to ptz and want the extra headroom for power needed. Cat5e is way more than whats needed for almost any case except a very power hungry ptz. However, with a $30 difference ill just stick with the cat6. Shielded seems...

    Neighbor checking my pool

    When it says wired it means power wall plug not poe. They have solar and wired. I dont think they have any poe at all. Its all wifi or solar. The camera is in fact, wifi only connection. Wired to a wall using a USB hard wired into the camera. If that makes sense.
