Installation and test equipment

And will be huge!

my car starter is no bigger than a standard portable battery pack for consumer electronics, it weights 390g and is 145mm x 76mm x 27mm, small enough to fit into a pocket

Ah, I have a jump box that is heavy duty for tow truck driver service. The small packs may be able to lay down some amps to turn over a car but check its specs to make sure it can run the ~12V for a decent time.. certain battery design is geared towards quick discharge vs steady consumption. Maybe better would be a simple UPS battery... online for cheap.. I use them for my kid's powerwheels, commonly used for wheelchairs, too.

Just checked the compatibility of the USB OTG Ethernet adapter, it seems my Nexus 7 is supported and quite probably my Nexus 6 as well.

Seems like an interesting idea for using browsersync over ethernet for my web development (day job)

And..........i've just ordered it ;-)

it'll work on any droid, I use em my Nexus Player to get it off the stupid Wifi.. drivers built into standard kernel.

I don't see what the issue really is. I would test and configure all of the cameras before ever touching a ladder. If you want to try a location before running a permanent line, just run a long cable out a door or window. I prefer not carrying crap up a ladder I don't need.

I don't see what the issue really is.

aiming/framing the camera, and if its got manual focus/zoom its even more critical.. not setting up the camera, agreed that should all be done on the bench.

First thing I do when I get nearly anything, bench top test. Learning to check my fast food orders, too, before I ever leave the line.

I grabbed one of these on Ali.. Awesome as it will power the IP, TVI and analog cameras.. Allows you to brute enter the cameras as well if you don't have the pw.. good for accessing existing cameras from previous installs.
