    Same gallon of gas in 4 or 6 cylinder

    All that shit on the engine is designed to make it less reliable and force you to frequently change parts that have little to no real improvement. In many cases, it actually decreases efficiency and performance with no benefit to the environment. As I said, it's all about the money. More pennies...

    Same gallon of gas in 4 or 6 cylinder

    It's all about consolidation and cutting costs, it has nothing to do with saving the environment, but they want you to believe it is. Each cylinder of a 6-cylinder engine produces roughly 17% of the overall output of the engine. In a 4 cylinder, each has to produce 25% of the output. Which...

    Same gallon of gas in 4 or 6 cylinder

    That's what Toyota and other auto manufacturers are claiming. More fuel efficient and better for the environment. If you ask me, it's virtue signaling and BS. My 2022 3.5 liter 6-cylinder Toyota Tacoma averaged 20.5 MPG combined. My 2024 2.4 liter 4-cylinder Tacoma averages 17.6 MPG. How the F...

    Same gallon of gas in 4 or 6 cylinder

    Someone explain to me how a 4-cylinder engine getting the same mileage as a 6-cylinder engine is more fuel efficient. They both burn the same amount of fuel in the same distance and a gallon of burned gas emits the same 20 lbs. of CO2 in either case. Other than reduced costs for the...

    2025 New Arrivals From EmpireTech

    That was just a guess on my part. It could be less, and it could be more

    2025 New Arrivals From EmpireTech

    I may have to revise my guess, as it looks like you'll need to add the 4G/radar option to measure speed. So, more $$$$

    If I were to guess, I would say between $1000 and $2000 USD

    Is it normal to heave two IP entries for the NVR?

    Noted. I haven't forwarded any ports. Lorex provides a DDNS for remote connection to mobile device.

    This was my issue with a PTZ cam. I swapped it with w eyeball cam and the issue went away. Apparently the PTZ cam had an issue

    The Typical picture of a Perp on Nextdoor-type Apps with Consumer Grade Cameras like Ring, Nest, Arlo, Canary, Wyze, etc.

    Definitely American made. Looks like a full-size Ford Econoline van with a ladder on the driver's side rear door. The hood on a chevy or a Dodge/Chrysler would be shorter

    Is it normal to heave two IP entries for the NVR?

    That will have to be another project. I have several printers on the network for my business that have static IP addresses. Every device that has static IPs will have to be changed manually. I need to focus on one project at a time

    Is it normal to heave two IP entries for the NVR?

    I never knew that. I never had an issue with websites not working. Changing the entire network device IP addresses is going to be fun. Uhhgh

    Is it normal to heave two IP entries for the NVR?

    The plan is to reset and start new to eliminate anything I possibly made a mess of. For some reason, I thought each camera had to be initialized individually by itself, but it looks like that is not the case

    Makes sense. I'll have 3 LPR cams

    Is it normal to heave two IP entries for the NVR?

    I'm using 2 Dahua NVR5216-16P-4KS2E NVRs, so I theoretically have space for 32 I believe

    Is it normal to heave two IP entries for the NVR?

    On to cameras. If the cameras are reset, do they need to be initialized through the camera GUI stand alone, or can you connect them to the NVR and they get the relevant data from the NVR (password, location, IP address, etc.)

    Is it normal to heave two IP entries for the NVR?

    Ok, so here is what I have. Moving cameras from the Lorex NVR to the 2 Dahua NVR5216-16P-4KS2E NVRs. I will have 18 cameras to assign and organize into a logical flow and order. My thought is to organize the order by camera location in a counterclockwise direction. I'd like to split the camera...

    Is it normal to heave two IP entries for the NVR?

    Ok, time to start the process of moving over to the Dahua NVR(s). Should I start a new thread?
