    IPC-Color4M-T vs IPC-T54IR-ZE White

    Yep, and don't overlook the great built-in speaker. It's fun to setup greetings for visitors and especially nice for Halloween.

    IPC-Color4M-T vs IPC-T54IR-ZE White

    I've replaced my T54IR cameras with Color4M-T cameras. Much better IR at night (nicer spread and coverage without the hotspot like the T54IR) and for monitoring the front door, I love how the warm light turns on when it detects motion.

    Bullet Camera recommendation for driveway

    As mentioned above, the IPC-B54IR-Z4E S3 is a great choice. Here is an example of my driveway in complete darkness. The end of the asphalt is 77' away, and the IR of the Z4E works exceptionally well (zoom of the camera for this video at 387). I had previously tried the IPC-B52IR-Z12E S2 and...

    IPC-Color4M-TL

    In my backyard I have a camera mounted high at the top of the house and looking downward. As with your photo, it is in complete darkness and with a T54IR-ZE-S3 the IR illuminated a bright spot in the center. I won a Color 4M-T in Andy's lottery and replaced the T541R with the Color 4M-T. The IR...

    EmpireTech 10th Anniversary (Summer+Prime Day)Sales

    Ok, I've got to officially retire from the lottery after winning one of the Super Prizes this time. I've now won the Super Prize, 7th before that, 4th before that, and 5th before that! That's way too lucky, so I need to be especially careful crossing the street. Thanks Andy for the great lottery!

    IPC-Color4K-T and IPC-Color4K-T180 230227 Firmware

    Here is a clip from a few moments ago. Ever since I switched to IVS on the NVR, it has worked much better at detection.

    IPC-Color4K-T and IPC-Color4K-T180 230227 Firmware

    One thing I discovered with the IPC-Color4K-T180 is that IVS works better with my NVR8CH-8P-2AI's built-in IVS, rather than the camera's IVS. Whereas the camera's IVS works well at the center of the image, the NVR's IVS detects farther to the sides while remaining stable at the center, and I can...

    WD Purple HDD sale

    I use two WD Purple Pro 10TB hard drives in my NVR, and they have worked well. They were each $250 at Amazon. A couple weeks ago they rose to $260+ but have since dropped back down to $250. I'd definitely recommend them.

    Who here uses a Mac (all Apple devices in general), and why? Seriously...

    Ha ha, yeah I saved up for a calculator for two years in high school when TI calculators came out. The choice was either a TI or a HP with reverse Polish notation.

    Who here uses a Mac (all Apple devices in general), and why? Seriously...

    On some tasks Macs are always playing catch-up, however, I prefer using a Mac over a Windows machine. The best way to describe it is by taking a drive into San Francisco. In San Francisco, you can always see your destination, but just before you get there you’ll encounter a one-way street you...

    Questions on animal detection onT54IR-ZE-S3 and no push notification on DMSS app for animals

    What resolution settings are you using for the 4K B180? Have you tried 4096 x 1216? It is much less distorted.

    IPC-Color4K-T 4K

    When I had a couple of the older PTZ's (SD39225XA-HNR), I disliked having to alter the day/night settings each month using IE, so the little bit of pain of about 1/2 hour, entering the values for the schedule for these cams, seems not nearly as difficult. Someday I think I'll write an...

    IPC-Color4K-T 4K

    It's also helpful to do a Google search of sunrise/setset times for your location (including when daylight saving/stadard times start and end). Type in the values for each month in the plan, and it will look something like this.
