    Hikvision Product Comparison

    Decisions, decisions. I think the 4MP hybrid on the 1/1.8 would be the best, but for 5 bucks less I can get a 4K. Im sure you can turn the strobe option off and have just IR? $170...

    Emergency Power/Storms/Prepping etc

    2 yrs ago we installed a new pacific energy wood stove right in the center of our house on the main floor, This keeps the hole house, including upstairs nice and toasty on those cold Canadian winters. Best $10,000 ever spent. We were spending $3500 every winter on propane, as that is our only...

    Dahua 5442 varifocal Turret repair...

    Scratch that idea, I dont have any 5442 donors. only 5431 2241's. and they are different wires in the pigtail. I belive the camera only uses 4 wires of the 6, so 2 of those wires get paired. but dont quote me. There is a pinout diagram floating around here somewhere.

    Front porch camera/conduit/junction box installation questions

    Can you not punch a small 1/4" hole directly into garage at blue mark? I do this quite often on installations. You could always run some wire molding inside the garage up to ceiling to hide wire. Even this cam in the picture is almost a foot too high.

    RJ45 connectors - are they all the same?

    Definitely not the same! (at least for NON-pass thru). So I just recently upgraded from some cheap o crimps and rj45 plugs from Amazon I've been using for years. My last job I was having to re-crimp a bunch of my cat5e runs and wasting time. So in a pinch, I went to a nearby Home Depot and...
