    Emergency Power/Storms/Prepping etc

    It is a risk assessment thing. But the batteries are UL (IIRC),and have at least parts of a BMS onboard. So a couple layers there, and you should be performing checks in it before critical use. And from elsewhere: Is UL Certification Required by Law? No, there currently is no law that requires...

    Emergency Power/Storms/Prepping etc

    Meliff? Tools sells stuff for several battery lines. I’ve tried some of it, and it does the job. I’m tempted to order their fridge. The coffee maker is Kuerigs I think, so not as jazzed about that one. The air pump is ok, but not really for a truck tire. Smaller tires do ok. I also have the...

    Anyone have experience with drone cameras?

    No. For various legal/practical reasons. Drone sentry/patrol is best searched here: https://dronepilots.media/ its a sort of umbrella link. Drop into “commercial “ for more info on that idea IIRC

    cable runs

    You can also look for a “pedestal“ To shroud the pipes. Not sure if a fencing place has the square PVC pipe with a large enough diameter, but they go to at least 4” in the box stores. So a 6-8” diameter shouldnot be too hard To find. “Corners” might be more aesthetically pleasing based on the...

    LPR: Database & Alerts

    Probably the best you can do to narrow your outliers is have a “template” or similar of your states assorted plates. Even easier is if you have county numbers on the plates. Then you can screen out your county and maybe adjacent ones.

    Cameras for monitoring industrial machinery.

    And look into RAM mounts and their accessories. You’re probably going to have a lot of vibration and unexpected harmonics going on. There may be better ain’t vibration option, but RAM is very commonly used option.

    Cable entry - air tight

    I’d say you wouldn’t have much to worry about really. Unless your pipe is a few metres in diameter, airflow and thermal exchange would be largely insignificant in a house. Maybe in a houseboat, but that would be water intrusion. However, tape both ends of your pipe which is significantly longer...

    Reolink (doorbell) camera, double sided tape to stick to the outside. Run cord through window to POE switch and then to computer or other hardwire point. App will do the phone. Put a stick on window so it can’t slide open. Cord can survive a few openings on it and pinching it should break it...

    Burying ethernet cable outdoors

    putting a short run between the 45’s is nice, but without that it’s still with 1/2-1 pipe diameter extra IIRC for offset. Same as go up as many pipe sizes as you’re comfortable with. instead of ”traditional PVC“, look at the black water/irrigation lines Typically cheap as hell. Up to about 2”...

    4WD is nice, but without a way to make both sides turn together, you’re still likely to be in trouble. You have just 2 2WD systems working, kinda together, kinda not. without a limited slip or locking hubs, you can be stuck on wet grass with 4WD.
