Yep, people that leave bad reviews are a majority done out of frustration no matter the product. I've been very lucky with hardly any probs. (Knock wood. Damn, now I have a bump! Lol)... I have mine mounted off the second flr for better coverage. Also, with too much direct heat or sun, their life time fades. There are warnings about a lot of outdoor products that the manufacturer lists for the end use. Operating temps for one. Years ago we installed heat resistors in the cam housing for the cold months and a cooling fan like in computers to vent the heat from the housing.Just the nature of technology unfortunately.

While we are at it and I won't get dragged into another security cam post any more in the future because it's been beaten to death with a dead horse that has bloat from sitting in an open field on a hot and humid day.[emoji31] Just want to comment about these latest supposedly great cams being sold like Arlo, Nest, Dlink, etc. All great companies. They ALL have their caveats. For months I have tried justifying buying just a couple for shitz and giggles. Every time I was ready to dive in, I weighed the differences and backed out. Some are expensive, some require subscriptions. Some only record when there is motion and/or if you want to check a feed. They all seem to have lag issues meaning the subject is in or out of the frame or turned at a crucial time. Yada yada. I would suggest if you want one of these types, do side by side feature and spec analysis. They are all trying to win over your money. Each one pushes something the other nay not have to grab you from their comp. [emoji848] HE: I wanted to test a Ring Pro. The orig brick was too big for my entry door, I couldn't do it. The pro was a smaller foot print but still a lousy quarter inch too wide. But from what I understand, have lag issues. I still wish I could try one.[emoji57] After all said, $86 for a Foscam does not seem like a bad deal to me. Throw another $35 bux or so and you can get that great BlueIris software. [emoji3] The only thing I would not recommend with ANY of these cheapo cams, even Foscam is, NEVER buy an outdoor dome cam style with the IR source in the same housing. The IR reflects off the inner dome and washes out the picture. For the life if me why they do that pisses me off and they won't tell you either. IR sources really need to be outside the camera.

Nick, I'm not knocking your advice. All valid stuff. (Don't knock pissing on a spark plug, you won't need viagra, lmao). But he wants one camera. Wants to stay cheap. The Foscams are great for that. Even if they go tits up, toss it up like a baseball bat and whack it on the way down. The manufacturer is pretty good. They sent me a new cam after one was faulty. You need nothing for these cams except power. Period. I have about 6 online on my property. They have indoor and outdoor models. What even some of the other fore mentioned products don't have is ptz. Its great. They all have motion detection and all of mine dump feeds to a directory on my main computer which gets backed up to Carbonite. I'm here majority of the time. But when we go away, we use a real robust cam software called BlueIris. This software constantly monitors the cams functionality too through watchdog. If it feels the cam is having connection issues, it will auto reboot the cam. Software, again, is fantastic and is compatible with tons of cams of all types. Check it out.

Not going to help. I had a couple blow the transformers during one of the major storms. Took out one of my cams too. If its under an eave, it won't most likely take a direct hit. Sounds to me you were affected by surges. Despite what they say, surge protectors don't always work. I'm sure Nick will concur.[emoji3] If it were lightning, you would have lost more than a transformer. Friend of mine in NC had a strike in his neighborhood. Almost everything he had got whacked. Lost his entertainment center, (all on surge protectors), his phones, a printer, his fridge and a few other things I cannot recall. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Nick, ya know I luv ya man, but that statement eludes to just cheap stuff in general. I can show you I've been using my cams forever, show beautiful pix, no subscriptions, motion and more and you still won't accept them as a decent and cheap alternative. Uga boogah. [emoji848][emoji6] By the way, I've also been in the industry for decades prior to retiring. Not like I talk out of my arse. [emoji51][emoji16] Hey! I'm not the oldest here but got a lot of experience behind me. Simply put, I learned on vacuum tubes before transistors, only had teletype before 'puters. My ham radios were point to point soldering of components, (no pc boards), and tubes. I taught color codes to techs that claimed knew electronics when I was in grammar school. Ran one of the most popular BBS's in Northern NJ before there was an internet. My career and experience for many moons has been electronics and computers which I have diplomas for both. But I digress. Use what you want. I gave you a cheap and reliable option. BTW, how many times over the past couple years has this topic reared its head in other posts? [emoji6] lmao PS: Other than well name cams you'll find on Amazon and the like, are the same cameras, just rebranded. Caveat Emptor! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ruger has other calibers as of this year ya know. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro

I know people will critique and bust my balls. But I've been using Foscam for many years and only replaced them years down the pike because sales or tech upgrades. I have several around the house. No subscriptions, easy setup and now, if desired, can record to a mem card, your puter , phone or whatever. Just needs electric and a wiffy signal. I thought about the later like Ring, Nest, erc. All good, but expensive. None of which are pan and tilt. Throw a Foscam in your garage for an average of 80 bux and you are good to go. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro

This engineer I use to work with has Lyme Disease. He didn't know they got into his groin area. One morning when he work up, his balls were the size of a 5 lb bags of potatoes. This is not something to trifle with. He has to take meds for the rest of his life. He's lucky he ended up ok. No chances taken. Get to a doctor asap.

Go for it. You can always do what I do in extreme cases. Sell something to generate funds. My wife is content with that idea. I've sold some stuff, including both my nuts and a few pints of blood. Haven't figured out how to remove a kidney yet on my own. Lol. [emoji6] Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro

I have the same prob. The Uplula works fine in all cases. However, some of these loaders are extreme. I don't mind loading mags, especially prior to shooting. But it seems senseless to me if you first have to load some gizmo full of rounds then load the mag. Too may extra steps that in a long run, is a waste of time imho. Good example of that is that wood loader that looks like something you serve grapes and cheese on. Throw a bunch of rounds in it, make sure they all face one way, then shove 'em in... Bah!

Supposedly. But they all complained about the orig mag release and wanted something close to the AR design. Can't please everyone. [emoji3] Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro
