Guys a simple metal screw will work with the donkey balls mount they provide. Well if you have a lip like i do on the cutter. A 2 pack of 1/2 metal screws at lowes is less then a dollar. 1 screw will hold but you can line up 2 if you try. Doesnt take much to hold this stuff the chinese way...

I went ahead and ordered a 120 for shits and giggles. It puts out a 100% more coverage then the older IR 18W tendelux I had. I am impressed and mine doesnt seem to be getting hot at all, Ill check again before morning. I do have it mounted at the edge of the underhang of the house. I have it...

Yeap, I bought one yesterday just to see what the difference would be . Boy did it make a hugh difference. I will do this to all mine that are mounted under the eve. Amazing how a 3 in drop makes adjustment wise and for lens flare. I used the solid boxes and drilled my holes where I needed them...

What I did today was I moved the camera forward almost to the edge of the eve and lowered the range just a little. My wire hole is showing out the back some but a little silcone will fix that. Seems to have fixed my problem. I lost some of my range but it was a easy cheap compromise.

I have the old style and they work great after 2.5 yrs. From what I can see not much difference here with the 20watt maybe even not as good as the old one. I need max range and max width so which should I order new or old style?

I am hoping a few inches will work the electrical box is maybe 2 to 3 inches deep I hope it works it will be a cheap work around. the wall is brick so that is a no go mounting there. To much trouble drilling into that. Spray paint ummm maybe a little to redneck for me. I did come across black...

Ok, I am getting IR reflection on a couple cameras I mounted under the eve of the house. How much drop would I need to fix that. I was thinking of using a outdoor weather proof electrical outlet box. I used this method to mount a camera on top my metal awning camera fit perfect on the box. I...

Wow...... My neighbor came by few days ago he is having the same issue with one of his dahua cameras. I told him to trash it and buy another, oops. I emailed him this link so maybe he can fix his. Had no idea they had silca in them.

Its supposely a dahua international version 6mp 2.8 poe camera. But no name on anything its one of the clones most likely. But 4 of them have been straight up awesome cameras for 3 years now. I never expected to get this much use out of them. I figured they be tore up in a year.

I looked it up because you guys made me curious. Its a Dahua OEM NVR302A-16/16P-4KS2 16 Channel 1U 16 PoE 4K & H.265 NVR4216-16P-4K Lite Network Video Recorder IP NVR DVR XVR Surveillance System (LOCAL SUPPORT, NO LOGO) n

I played around with it today and got it working. I have no idea what nvr it is. Bought it 3yrs ago off amazon suppose to be dahua or a clone probably. No manual, no tags on it no nothing. But it works. Had no problems with it but I dont do much with it. I dont network or anything used just...

Its the same tonight and during the day I had a haze high up in the camera view all day. Pllaying with the settings did not change a thing. It wasnt sun glare either we had very little sun today. I also cleaned it. I looked at the lens and there is something wrong it is not like the others...

No first time I have had this issue.

I have a new camera mounted on my barn and a security light about 100ft away in front of the camera view. The camera worked great until about 3am now all I see is a bright glare at the white light washes out the rest of the screen. It did have a small faint halo all night but wasnt a issue...

Can you guys post how you have the sound settings on your cameras. The new cameras i have do have a mic but the sound is coming in very low on the monitor. Plus I have no idea what the sound settings should be. Also is there a thread/post where you guys post screen shots of your cameras...

I have a dahua NVR several years old. Is there a way to get the cameras to cycle thru one at a time full screen on the monitor? I got no manual with the NVR been running just a couple cameras but just added more and well its quit useless to use the screen with all the little boxes.

well guys I am gone for a few months at least just got the call yesterday wheels up in 48hrs . I didnt have a chance to even get the system in. Boxed it up put in the barn. it will be a few months before I get to finish maybe longer. All thanks to the idiots in the middle east. Thanks for the...

Got the starlight it is only slightly better. But I still have to use the IR flood. Is it $50 dollars better, Hell NO! I will have to play with it to see if I can get the zoom to be of some use. I doubt I will use that my FOV is just to big. I will keep it on the front but Im not buying...

The tendelux bi18 200ft IR flood light is the shit!!! It worked wonders I am perfectly happy with the 6mp and IR light so the starlight should be better.The STarlight will be here tomorrow. Can you do anything on the motion blur at night at 140 ft with these cameras? At that distance i do...

Well I got all my cables ran and all I have to do is put in the cameras when I decided which ones. Hopefully I have a final answer tuesday night on the cameras. The IR will be here monday, starlight on tuesday. I am thinking that I will most likely need the IR with the starlight as well. WHy do...

I di but I can return it. I did find a manufacturer date of 08/2018. SO not to bad I guess. But if the iptalk one is better. I got time to switch.

Oh I am finding this out big time, Sir!!!!!

Ok well I spent all day until 130am working on this stuff. The high light of the day is I am damn good at making the cat cables. That was a breeze just time consuming and I thought it would be a nightmare. After that I decided I would get everything connect to the net. For some unknown reason I...

Ok quick update UPS didnt deliver until like 7pm, my luck as always. Well the install of hdd and quick set up went ok considering not one damn piece of instructions on anything. well one half ass sheet of paper on the nvr like 4 steps on the set up wizard.LOL I did not connect anything to the...

Well we will see. I should have everything tomorrow/today to test its going to be a long day and night.. I am going to test the two cameras in all my planned spots and see if they work.The front is the problem little to no ambient light. But if the camera is ok out to half what I need. The extra...

When you get those up and running. Id loe to hear how they do especially the actual throw distance. I highly suspect I will be in need of a couple very soon. I hope to start testing my camera system by friday if UPS doesnt screw up.

I will see if it works if not Ill send it back why I only ordered two. The 2mp may be better but from the vids on utube not much difference from what I can see. In fact the one night vid of this 6mp was amazing. And you sure dont get facial or license plate with 2mp either. I want to try the...

Ok well I am going to test things with dahua. Just ordered the 16ch dahua nvr instead of the 8 ch. ordered 2 of the dahua 6mp cameras, monoprice 1000ft cat5e, iptalk crimpers, rj45 ends, and 4tb wd purple hdd. Pissed about the HDD the 2tb wasnt available for a thursday deliver would have been...

I know I dont have the time to do the BI now. This is just a temp solution until I have time to do it right.I did see a reolink system in play today my brothers neighbor had a system and it didnt look bad at all. I was surprised because of all the bad reviews I have read. He has had it running...

I am in a time crunch so this isnt ideal I know and not what I really want. But I can always upgrade in the future. In reality none of this shit will really last that long from my experience so by the time i get ready to upgrade i will probably need new stuff anyway. I can make 8 cameras work...
