    I like the copper patch idea, Not sure yet if I penetrated the other side of it , Its possible I weakened it, not sure if that is code either but looks pretty easy to do.

    Long story short, for years been suffering with a heating zone on the 2nd floor, currently wireless thermostat, gone through 3 of them and receivers to boot. The Guy who installed it like 23 yrs ago suggested I run a hard wire up there, Been putting it off but I had a route planned. Just drill...

    I had to find the control to adjust the aspect ratio on the Hikvision to get it to look decent, Not having the Dahua to test with I would bet it has the same control also so you can get the correct aspect for the image size, Kind of had to hunt for it If I remember correct.

    You are correct Andy, These wide angle cameras are best for supplement, They do cover a big area and have their place. I could never see that far out in my back yard that clear even with a full moon. I find I have to screw around with it quite a bit before I can get it dialed in at a happy...

    I did roll some video with this setting, more of a ghosting effect than anything else. This is the incorrect camera for me in this setting (at night) because lack of light however its still way better than any IR I have at the distances I'm covering. Even with a moonlit sky, I could barely see...

    Yea looks like Dahua has more features, might be fun to do a side by side on these.

    It is there, if you are not looking for it, you will not see it. Look at the warehouse pics, the orange reddish shelves, very little effect from it but you can see the stitch, still a very good pic for a 180 cam. Distance pictures are almost hard to find with the Hikvision until somebody walks...

    Amazon attempts to open my front door to deliver package

    Hmmm, I think I would be checking in with them about that. Last thing I would want is a amazon having my door code. Word gets around ya know. I agree this would appear the guy was just trying to follow instructions however one never knows.

    Yea would be nice, I posted some pics of the greyed out features in the firmware in my review i started here last month, I also e-mailed them about 3 weeks ago about using the software hikvision has for their other multi sensor cameras to try to dial this in. Guess what? No reply's yet. Oh...

    Yes sir, I have not decided yet on a location but testing different places to get a feel for it. I will say this, this is the first camera that really knows the difference between a human and a car with very little false alerts.

    I can move it back and get like a small ghosting effect in the trees in the background and the front end heals up pretty well, If somebody is walking by the cam in the setting above, you will get a quick blurb and most likely will not miss the money shot. Nothing is ever perfect in all cams and...

    I'm also really liking mine, Hikvision sent me one for testing, The issues I have is setting the stitching feature, not a deal breaker but If you are AD&D about your picture, it might just drive you nuts getting it set where you want.

    WOW, I guess the "Other Network engineers" who scan and probe businesses networks for exploits, and tell the clients they will be shutting down their credit card readers because of open ports to a NVR have just been telling us a bunch of bullshit the last 6 years. I'm sure mastercard and...

    I have had to do the opposite and set it to low under certain conditions, The Camera was in a spot that got shady about 7pm, it was viewing the side of a house that was still reflecting lots of bright light, Must have been the contrast in the field of view between sun and shade but it would kick...

    Dahua Thermal Cams showing up All over

    I know I was back at Foxwoods In June of 2021, They had pulled all those down. No body is checking for temp anymore, but at the time it sounded good and I suppose it was just a general tool or they figured out they were not working well.
