CHAT Got a new security cam today

[Dennis Olson]

Picked up an Amcrest outdoor security cam. Mounted it under the eaves by the garage door. I was unhappy with my indoor one. At night, the night vision LEDs would reflect off the window glass, rendering it useless after dark. This one won’t have that issue. Plus, it has a “night range” of 100’. I must’ve poured over 100 cameras’ specs. This one isn’t perfect either, but it’s a decent compromise. $50 from Amazon. Model ASH22-W

Note: this camera is 120v rather than battery powered. I have it set to record 24/7. You can’t do that with a battery unit. I also have a 128GB micro-SSD on-board for backup.

 

[Meemur]

I'll check it out. I need one more camera, as well.

Pore over vs. pour over
The phrase meaning to study carefully is pore over. It comes from a little-used sense of the verb pore—namely, to meditate deeply. In modern writing, this sense of pore rarely appears outside this phrase.

Pour over is of course a meaningful phrase in its own right, but it has nothing to do with studying. It’s what you do, for example, with milk to a bowl of cereal.

Interesting. I had to stop and think before I posted, and when I thought of “pore,” the only thing that came to mind were the pores in one’s body. Thus I used the other one.

LOL! I have the same issue with "right to bear arms." I know it's right, but I always envision a bear and it doesn't sound right. Almost as funny as the folks here who use "right to bare arms."

But you also have a right to bare arms.

But you also have a right to bare arms.

Indeed I do, my friend. A right which I cherish and exercise daily.

 

[Dennis Olson]

But no one has the right to arm bears.

I might look into that camera. Heard good things about them. I'm dissatisfied with my RING cams.

Chimps, yes. Bears, no!

Home - Blue Iris Software

Innovative Video Management Software (VMS) to record up to 64 cameras, both IP and analog. Keep an eye on your home, place of business & valuables.

If you like the camera and get more, the amcrest and foscams from Amazon work real well with the blue iris software. It’s a control panel/dvr program that is very customizable. I use it and highly recommend it.

That looks like an ass escapee to me.

It’s always the same with, “Dog Eat Dog” I get that backwards every time...

I thought they were already armed.....with teeth and claws. I think guns would be a bit "over kill".

Watching this thread. I've been going to search for a much needed security camera.

Dennis, i didn’t know you lived on such a steep hill.

 

[Dennis Olson]

The angle is necessitated by the limitations of the mount.

Yes. Now we need a hacker type to WATCH IT GROW!!

 

[Repairman-Jack]

Amcrest(mostly rebranded dahua's with some functionality turned off) is my "go to" IP/POE camera, not the greatest but better than most others in the "budget" range.

I've found the new Wyze v3 indoor/outdoor to be the best so far. I've got ~12. Picture quality is amazing, and I've never seen better night/low light performance at any reasonable price.
