    Camera to monitor 5" x 8" LCD panel ?

    I'm looking for a camera to monitor a small LCD panel on our boiler. Playing with a few that I've had laying around, an Amcrest IP4M-1051 has been able to produce the best image but it's still not very readable. This is from about 32" and zoomed in. If anyone knows of something off the top of...

    How to tell camera model?

    Thank you both. Not on mine. It seems Amcrest has it but Dahua not on the cameras I've checked.

    Smart Electrical Panels, Yes?

    Firstly, I'd steer clear of SqD and Siemens breakers. They both produce a lot of false trips. Eaton is much more reliable. When I looked at this arena two years ago IotaWatt was the clear winner for me. No cloud or subscription, more accurate, and lots of options for data output/viewing. The...

    How to tell camera model?

    I logged in to the web interface for a couple of cameras to get the model number and couldn't find it anywhere. Is it there and I missed it? Some other way to tell the model #? Thanks,

    Something similar to Abode Edge ?

    https://www.tomsguide.com/news/abodes-new-security-camera-works-from-up-to-15-miles-away The long battery life and 1.5 mile WiFi (HaLow) distance are quite appealing for placing some remote cameras. My guess is the image quality isn't too great and it only works w/ their subscription system...

    New 5442 doesn't like default password ?

    Thanks. When first connecting (.108) it asks for region and then goes to the login screen with 'admin' filled in as username and password blank. It does not do time zone nor does it ask to set a password. I'll give the super duper reset a try later tonight. Thank you! I don't think we've...

    New 5442 doesn't like default password ?

    Setting up several new cameras. A new in the box (but prob 1-2 years on shelf) IPC-T5442T-ZE doesn't like admin/admin. It replies with 'Login Failed!' Also tried admin/ admin/password admin/Admin admin/1234 Took the cover off and did a button reset but still doesn't work. Any ideas? Thanks,

    Recommendations - Interior / Ceiling Mount / POE / Unobtrusive / Fixed & PTZ

    Thanks @EMPIRETECANDY. That doesn't list a an in-ceiling mount bracket (like the PFB5201C, etc.). Does it work with any of them?

    Thanks @EMPIRETECANDY. Can you get the IPC-HDBW5442E-ZE or is there a dome you'd recommend for interior use? Vari-focal is a definite nice to have but I think a fixed w/ a 90° FOV would work in most cases.

    Recommendations - Interior / Ceiling Mount / POE / Unobtrusive / Fixed & PTZ

    Continuing with digging and comparisons. The IPC-HDBW5442E-ZE seems the best affordable option for a vari-focal dome and it works with PFB5201C in-ceiling mount. It doesn't seem to be available from @EMPIRETECANDY though? Other options that are available? There are 3 Wizmind-X cameras that...

    Thanks @ThomasCamFan. I was totally unaware of that option.

    That's helpful. Thank you. Which thru-ceiling mount were you considering?
