There are a few cameras I would like to get but I have to tell myself I need to pace myself and save some cameras for the next sale.
"Is it worth delaying our family's safety and piece of mind by waiting for a future sale? If we want to be safer, that should start now, not later - don't you agree?" That line has enabled me to buy more cameras than I really need LOL..

My partially filled Blue Iris overview screen says we have room for more cameras, my checkbook says to wait until the next sale to order more! :rofl:

I used a very similar line to convince the comptroller that we needed to order the 4 that are on my porch waiting for me after work!

I have 7-8 cameras I still need to install. Any new cameras, like a thermal camera, would enhance the planned coverage, not add new coverage.

The thermal is a much needed enhancement!
Oh, I know. I already plan to have a SD22204UE-GN-W in the back of the house so me or the wife can access it through the wireless connection to keep an eye on the kids in the pool. I'll have a color bullet for the back patio and a 5442 for people approaching the back door. Overview will be from 2 5442's at the corners of the house. I guess I could justify the thermal by saying I need to see if there's a person actually in the pool in case the back patio lights are not on and the ir cameras don't catch them.

Dam! I just bought a Wyze and an Amcrest IP2M-841B last week to place in my motorhome that was burglarized back in September. Not real happy with the recording to SD card as it is hard to access on the iPhone apps. Not worried about the WIFI issues since they both are placed less than 8 feet from the mobile hotspot in the coach. Have yet to have any issues with connectivity. So far I have not investigated using their cloud subscriptions.

Info on those two cams would interest me. I was planning on doing a comparison of the Wyze and Amcrest once I get everything sorted out.

Looking forward to it!

As a PSA since we seem to have it happen every lottery, if you purchased from Andy either direct, Amazon, or his website, please follow the instructions on emailing him your purchase proof in order to get a number and if you don't have a number by tonight, reach out again.

Further, please check all your emails, including spam and junk, as people have been sent their lottery number but it got sent to the spam folder OR it went to their email of their PayPal that is different than their everyday email.

I do everything you said to a Tee but I didn't win any cameras these past few lotteries. What am I doing wrong?

Any tips? ;)

If I may give a suggestion for the lottery?

In the past I have seen people win more then 1 prize. Example, won 2nd place and 4th place

To increase wining chances for all users, if a user won a prize from one category, he/she is no longer eligible to win any more prizes from that lottery? Example: I won 2 prize, I am no longer eligible for 3/4/ prizes

Would that be fair?

If you win 2 cameras this lottery you won't be saying that anymore LOL.

While I get where you are coming from, that isn't fair either to someone that bought several tickets and cameras.
