do you have another post on this forum that discusses your lightening protection setup further? Trying to figure this out before setting up my outdoor runs. Right now planning on using ditek mrjpoe devices on my runs earthed to my main home grounding rod.

I'd offer them $15 since he'll add shipping. IMO, under $25 for one of these is a decent deal...you can drop that much $$$ at lunch these days so stay home and eat a PB & J sammich and play with this cam!

$25 for lunch? A whole Costco Peperoni Pizza is $10, will get you through at least 4 lunches, or one REALLY big lunch

But I take my wife with me and she's not a pizza or burger and fries type.
EDIT: FWIW, I'm 80 miles from a Costco or the like.

Its been over a year since I made this thread, I still have not added the camera to the bird feeder! I have a spare camera on my shelf
It came back in stock a little while ago, I ordered it and it came well packaged. But the clips on the rear cover were complete sheered off, meaning it just sat loosely on and could be knocked off. The seller tried arguing that that's how the cameras are designed... I told him that was not the case and requested a refund.
I see now its listed back with some stipulation that it is damaged, however he told me he has sold plenty of these before that are the same. So I'd be warned if you buy from this seller, chances are you will get a damaged camera

Sorry you had a problem. Even when undamaged they're pretty flimsy, the simple mod below worked for me since it was mounted in the roof of the birdhouse looking down, I did not use the stand as shown, I used a homemade adjustable bracket using metal plumber's tape(see my post #35).

One day I'll get around to the bird feeder project, today I put this camera in my garage. Works great with the 180 degree viewing angle. I don't need great quality, I just want to see whats going on in there
Made the mount out of an old bit of 2x4

Using some 2x4 for a mount?!?! We are looking for AFFORDABLE mounting options!

I swear it was all free! I have a whole pile of 2x4's and 2x6's from attic work that was done
The one of the garage has held up great! Plenty of very hot days with no problem, we'll see how it handles winter
I'm actually looking for a second, I want to add one to my outdoor cat house. Looks like there are no cheap ones out there right now. Anyone know of another cheap cam option? I have some Samsung SmartCams, but they are WiFi, and I don't know how much I want to deal with that

Maybe more than you want to spend. I was going to install it into a birdhouse but haven't gotten around to actually doing it yet.
