    30W Siren/Spot Lights attached to junction box

    In case you ever need to add-on a modified siren/spot inside a junction box, this was my diy solution. The wall mounting box include the electronics (siren), while the junction box will accommodate the siren magnet and spot lights attachments. I leave a separation (.25 inches) between both...

    Looking for an Alarm System for PSTN wired home and/or wifi?

    for self-free monitoring, I prefer the Envisalink-4 module. Is available for DSC PowerSeries panels, and the Honeywell Vista, as mentioned by smiticans. Unfortunately, the PowerSeries is already in “the end of life period”, replaced by the G series, which I understand is not compatible with the...

    Interface from NVR output voltage to a 110V light

    Is obvious, no one should connect a high voltage directly to any recoding device. In this particular case, the NVR output is only used to trigger an auxiliary device (relay, intelli-switch, etc,)

    Ezviz C8C camera blocked by previous owner

    Good luck! EZVIZ is a piece if garbage, while the Customer Service is a joke for the Industry. Promise to myself will never buy an eviz product again. Currently using my CS-CIC as a paper clip. Next to it, you may see my Dahua IPC, still working great after many years

    Pinhole security camera with POE?

    In case you still need a poe pinhole module camera, I had good experience with CamHi software. The problem with adding ir within the camera body, is the space required to accommodate the leds, reason why you are probably using a pinhole lens. You still have the option of using a separate ir...

    The fabled micro HD IP camera.... Does this exist?

    you may consider an ip board camera (38mm x 38mm), which includes 12-Vdc, wired/wireless, microSD, multiple connections for ir-cut, mic-in/speaker line-out, ONVIF. In my case, CamHi is the only Chinese APP with good results. https://m.aliexpress.com/item/1005003923920992.html

    Has anyone used POE powerline adapters?

    anyone has experience with this product? My only problem with these adaptors (non poe type, but should applies as well) is on old houses with old cables (to much noise over signal), or trying passing the signal over different phases (L1/L2), including sub-pv-panels...

    PIR siren on camera not working

    It looks like the problem is not related to adjustment/settings. It should be a defective camera, associated with the audio section (speaker, preamp, amp, etc).

    SD1A404XB-GNR Spare Plastic Dome?

    the outside diameter of your dome is 52mm, while this replacement is only 49.03mm. Probably the outside lip will cover that difference, in which case you may apply some sealant. Not sure if the height (26.57mm) could interfere with the body lens. https://m.aliexpress.com/i/33002748739.html

    Yes, even thou the integrated PFB junction box is wider than the PFA pole mount, you may need to drill self tapping screws or use a tap-a-drill bit, to attach both parts. The PFB-206W is a new mount, still not available through Amazon or AliExpress

    Lost Bracket for Dahua Mini PTZ?

    Yes, only consider as your last resort, with no more options, while the electrical metal box cover is quite inexpensive.
