    Budget Dahua Cams or china alternatives under $100?

    @guykuo, You're welcome. Hopefully the custom bracket works out for you. @All, it seems that Dahua has removed the DH_IPC-HX25(8)XX-Molec_MultiLang_PN_V2.800.0000000.15.R.200313.bin file used to upgrade the Amcrest IP5M-T1179EW camera. That is to say, the IPC-HDW2531T-AS-S2 firmware download...

    Budget Dahua Cams or china alternatives under $100?

    The attached zip file has the three STL files for the Amcrest turret mounting bracket. Choose a filament that will tolerate the outdoor installation. I used primed/painted ABS, but will likely try PETG on the next one. So far I've installed six of the IP5M-T1179EW turrets. At $45 each...

    New Amcrest IP5M-T1179EW-36MM graphical glitches and freezing runs hot?

    Need Audio Related Advice on my new Dahua NVR2116-I NVR.

    Item #2 (see above) had a simple remedy. When using the desktop GUI's 8-camera view the large window (top left cam) has audio. I prefer seeing nine cameras but I can live with the eight camera workaround. - Thomas

    Budget Dahua Cams or china alternatives under $100?

    FWIW, I registered on the Amcrest site today and their introduction email had a 10% off promo code (AMCRNEWS). But Amazon didn't accept it. The promo failure turned out to be to my advantage. That's because the $15 promo code W44CKUSN (posted earlier in this discussion) still works today...

    Need Audio Related Advice on my new Dahua NVR2116-I NVR.

    I've upgraded my security camera installation. The old system was based on a Samsung AHD DVR that worked well, but I've outgrown its eight camera limitations. The new system is a Dahua NVR2116-I NVR, 16 port 4K Wizsense Intelligent series. The new IP Cameras are Amcrest and Dahua POE, mostly...
