    UPS battery backup

    I just plugged everything in to my kil-a-watt. It’s hovering around 100-120 watts. That’s for a pc, Mac mini, 8port poe switch, 2 routers, and dc fan. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    UPS battery backup

    The 1350 is $42 cheaper then the 1500 currently on amazon. Out of the 2 that seems like the best deal right now. I’m just wondering how much of a sacrifice the 1350 would be compared to the 1500. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    UPS battery backup

    What UPS do you prefer and why? I’ve been looking as several units but when I start reading reviews of them failing shortly, almost burning houses down or just being glitchy I hold off. Is there anything solid and reliable around or under $200? I intend on powering the bi pc, Mac mini, poe...

    Also spray down inside the rf45 end of the cable. Water can get inside and real havoc on the pins. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Fried at connector troubleshooting

    Clean it and dry it with appropriate water displacement spray. Make sure your cat cable is unplugged from poe also. Last thing you want is to keep power on it when it’s wet. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Break in line, in wall,

    I have no experience with that particular instrument. The lowest cost device I’ve used is a fluke ts100 and it was good for short lengths of a few hundred feet or less and was best the shorter the length of cable being tested. Which was the main reason I used it, for instance when I had gotten...

    TDR (time domaine reflectometer). There are several types of TDR s out there from basic digital display to full on graph display. You just need something basic. Try to find someone who has one. Mine is an $8000 piece of equipment but I use it daily. Tone and probe won’t work for an unbalanced...

    How do you review recorded footage smoothly?

    I’m still new to ip cams but I have an i7 6700 with 16gb ram and I can watch mine as fast as blue iris allows without a hicup and barely any cpu usage. So yours sounds very abnormal to me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I watched a recording of my dog taking a dump last night when I went through my clips this morning. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Verifocal zoom powers

    When adjusting a verifocal for a location how do I tell what power or lens size I have adjusted to? For instance my 5231 goes from 0 to 2390 and I’m trying to figure out what fixed lens I need for that location Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Cable Installation Questions

    My favorite is when I pull extra cat5 cable and a catv or satellite guy comes behind me at some point and uses the spare cat5 to pull coax. But whenever I see a hole with a pull string I usually think someone put that there for someone other then me. And if I can’t verify what that hole and...
