    2025 New Arrivals From EmpireTech

    Surely out of my price range. Why would I need it anyway? It would be fun blasting the laser IR at a certain area in the neighborhood, but other than that - no real practical purpose for me

    I would bet on that. Likely in the 2K range I would guess

    New Computer introduced at CES

    I'm with you. All my computers are Dell. I bought a refurbished HP Win XP Pro tower 5 years ago for my other editing suite to have available 5.25" bays for pull out rack drives and it's been nothing but problems - no preview on capture, cannot control sound in editing programs - a real heap. It...

    In my experience, I'll stay FAR away from HP products. No thanks

    New Reolink Wired POE Doorbell Cam ?

    That type of setup has too many moving parts for me. I use NVRs, as for me, they require the least amount of maintenance to keep the system operational. Yeah, it is nowhere near as feature rich as Blue Iris, but I have enough things to eat up my time, and most of the features wouldn't apply to...

    New Reolink Wired POE Doorbell Cam ?

    NVR has internet access for notification and playback of events when away from home. All cameras are connected directly to the built in POE ports. Unless I did something wrong in setup, if I enable Onvif for a non-Dahua camera for compatibility, it uses an outside port. I believe 35000.

    New Reolink Wired POE Doorbell Cam ?

    My only experience with using "Onvif" selection to make a camera compatible with the NVR was that the camera became visible to the outside world. It was no longer hidden by the NVR due to the port used. I definitely need to avoid that practice for security reasons. I would probably need...

    Loryta PTZ5A4M-25X Animal Tracking Example

    I didn't think this camera had sound. Was a mic added externally or dubbed in from another camera? Also, what firmware are you using on this camera?

    Review- EmpireTech IPC-T54IR-ZE-S3 4mp Varifocal Turret

    You could also test with the camera mounted to a junction as that would increase the distance from the soffit. I would also experiment with moving the camera location as close as possible to the outside edge of the soffit. Those 2 things should help make a significant improvement
