    Chicken with a tail or mouse with only two legs.

    His front legs may be in your neighbors trap, therefore a little gun shy. Try using peanut butter for bait, they are usually pretty aggressive to that.

    IPC-T5442T-ZE dual IR - electrical tape?

    I have the latest 12-03-20 update loaded and do not have the 2 IR LED selection under Manual. Just in case, I went back to Default setting and looked at the Manual IR setting, before I imported my settings. Still do not have 2 IR LED setting, just 1 scale for Manual. Evidently there was an...

    Patching outside wall stucco when moving camera to new location advice needed

    I have done my fair share of Stucco. First off, knock off any loose material. Don't be afraid to knock off too much. Spray with water to clean it up, then paint on a concrete/cement bonder, so you get a good bond with existing material. You do not really have to wait for it to dry out too...

    The new updated android app has been pushed to the play store

    I had that issue, but I am still running BI ver 4.8, so thought it might be associated with out of date software. The funny thing was some cameras would push the correct tone, and some would push the generic tone. I rolled back to BI Android app ver 2 and everything is good to go.

    How long to get Wunderground to approve Webcam?

    Ever since IBM bought Weather Underground, it has gone to shit. IBM . . . another great American company that has gone to hell with a female at the helm.

    The new updated android app has been pushed to the play store

    Look at post #18 for the link to the old apk. It is through a 3rd party outlet, so it is scary in itself to downgrade and use, but it does work. I wish Ken would make it available for eveyone, just to be safe. He may not want people to downgrade, because he uses us as beta testers. I guess...

    I'd like alerts if someone walks down my driveway - How?

    Do you use Blue Iris? You can send push notifications, SMS, email, etc for alerts. Use multiple zones for less fale alerts. That is, if you use a cam.

    Yes, the small traders are put out in the cold again. What a BS message from Schwab. Not sufficient shares?

    5442 4MP Starlight Day / Night switching issues

    I had the same problem with my 5442's. Thought I was going to break the IR filter motor prematurely. I now use Brian's (BP2008) Sunrise/Sunset tool. Follow the directions on the tool. You can tweek the adjustment times for your purpose. All my cams will switch at once. Only drawback is if...

    Hesperia, Ca - On Monday, January 18th, 2021. A man with a gun was trying to get into a house

    Scary video. Another reason I keep a gun locked and loaded in every room. I do not have kids running around though. Another typical day in CA?

    SD59225U-HNI startup motor skipping

    Yes, you can tie the gnd from your house power and from the camera at the xformer. You do want to add a fuse on the input line in case of a catastrophic failure.

    SD59225U-HNI startup motor skipping

    220V power supplies/transformers are difficult to find in US, because we use 120V. The china P/N of my supply is STD-3024S, but it is 120V input. This PS is rated at 3 Amps, which is an overkill for this cam. Probably get away with 1.5 - 2 Amp transformer. You can buy a 220V to 24V stepdown...

    SD59225U-HNI startup motor skipping

    If the camera has a true 24VAC input, it most likely has a transformer followed by a bridge rectifier, to produce an internal DC voltage. When you apply a DC voltage to the transformer, it will look like a very low resistance to the 24VDC supply and it would probably end up damaging the supply...

    Pandemic threat? Anyone else concerned?

    The way I look at it, the more people who don't want it, the faster I can get it. It is chaos in FL. Typical of a Gov't run program. The plan is: "There is No plan".

    Why is the old term "Footage" used in this day and age.

    Yes, you are correct, the USA is still tied to the antiquated English system. We tried to slowly convert to the world metric system years ago, but failed miserably. There were road signs in miles and Km a while back, but all of them have disappeared. Evidently people here were too stupid to...

    Why is the old term "Footage" used in this day and age.

    I always wondered why people use the term Footage, when discussing digital video cameras in the 21st century. This term is from where plastic film was used to record frames of pictures to make a motion picture. We have graduated from this recording to magnetic tape, then to the digital age...
