My 4A425 is at 104 deg now with outside temp 65 deg and rain. I do have a 49225 that is 116 deg now. It has always ran hotter and pushed from 140-155 during sunny days.Yeah that’s supposedly the internal camera temp. I don’t doubt that the dome is acting like a magnifying glass, but it still seems crazy high.
Been dark for 2 hours and reading 122 that’s about what it’s been from day 1
Brrrrrr
From day 1, my SD1A404XB was showing at least 10 degrees hotter than reality. And it wasn't moving nor zooming. I wouldn't put much stock in the built-in thermometers.^ are you sure that is correct? My dark brown LPR cam box in the garden is in direct sunlight all day here in Houston. I have a digital thermometer inside and the hottest it got during our 104F days this summer was 127F.
Yeah I would buy Andy's camera too at that price LOL.Decided I required one of those thermal readers, as discussed above.
Flir 22% off Ouch!! At sale price $349 I would rather buy one of Andy's thermal cameras IMHO.
Can you tell if the fan is still running inside the cam?
It may be dead pixels, but could also be the new firmware getting a little aggressive trying to make a visible image and a few pixels went rogue. We saw this with the 4K/T when it first came out in lower light conditions.I started tweaking my new SD4A425DB-HNY and I am noticing some dead pixels. Below is a zoomed in image of a dark surface at night with the IR turned off, the white circles are showing where the dead pixels are. If I pan over to a different spot the dead pixels do not move. Is this acceptable or should reach out to Andy for a replacement.
