Imilab EC4 with solar panel, can use or not?
or better pull 1 external socket and buy Xiaomi PTZ 2k pro instead?

Feel like wanted to add on 2 additional wireless CCTV infront of my house gate (probably setup on awning metal support)

Power Socket always the best

This is interesting. Actually I plan to relocate my Unifi point to the opposite wall. So I wonder if this is the reason both vendors propose different type of cable.

The first one using cat6 did a site visit and I informed him about relocating the Unifi point. However, the RG cable vendor has not visited my house and at that time, there is no place to relocate the unifi point. Would he change to cat6 cable too if he is aware of the Unifi point relocation? Or the choice of using cat6 vs RG cable is independant of the unifi point?
*
Camera will link to Decoder if Analog System
And link Decoder with Unifi Router using LAN cable (CAT6)

Wizsense use Ai to detect human/vehicle, not 100% accurate.
The siren is not too loud, but enuf to grab attention.

what is the recommended storage size if want to record for 7/24 for one week? 4pcs of 5MP wired CCTV

Need to know the camera Frame Rate (fps) and Bitrate (kbps) only can calculate for u.

Example:
5MP(2560x1920) 15fps 2304kbps H265 x4 = 2TB can record 19days 24hrs

Below is the spec. Can you help to check what is the storage needed? NTW, 3K=5MP right?

Hi, DS-2CE16K0T-LFS is an Analog 5MP Camera, not 4K, it is 3K camera.

4K is 8MP.

For Analog System, frame rate and bitrate are set by DVR.
If u use HUHI series DVR, then u can have higher Resolution and Frame Rate, compare to HQHI series.

HUHI Can fully support the camera 3K Resolution, 2960×1665
3K @ 12fps 2188kbps H265 x4 = 2TB can record around 21days.

HQHI: Can only support partial resolution of the 3K Camera, HIK call it as 5MP/3K Lite, 1280x1936
Resolution lower even u use same model camera.

Thanks for the detail explanation. So if i have 4 camera, it can record around 5 days only. Is the calculation correct?
I see DVR has many variant although both are HUHI, eg: iDS-7204HUHI-M1/E & iDS-7204HUHI-M1/S. How to choose?

Do you support installation of CCTV at Melaka area?
*
4x 3K cam 2TB HDD can store around 21days.
7204HUHI-M1E got no Coax Output
7204HUHI-M1S got Coax Output
But nowadays nobody use Coax output anymore. So go with E will do.

or go for iDS-7204HUHI-M1X, this is the latest version, better Ai Perimeter Detection compare to E and S

Hi, should I wait for Unifi to be available before I install the CCTV and Alarm?

All wiring is done, just pending the camera, recorder and sensor installation. TM said the unifi insfrastructure is not ready. The house is currently empty but will start to move in furniture and appliances in 2-3 months of so.

If install now, the cctv can record but I am not able to view using apps and cannot control the alarm too.

Any thoughts?

U can consider subscribe 5G or 4G Broadband, like Unifi Air, Maxis 5G Home WIFI, Umobile 5G Home WIFI, etc...

Hi,
was wondering is there any possibility way to remotely reboot my net embedded Cynics Decorder? I noticed after while, i cant view my cctv remotely, so i reboot it manually and then it can immediately be seen.
*
Most of the cynics model don't have schedule reboot function.
Alternative way is Add a Smart Plug like TPlink Tapo P100, schedule Off/On Power, or remote it to restart power.

How do I share my Tapo CCTV access to another user so that she is able to have equal control as I am? Current share function only allow minimal task, the shared user is not able to enter/exit privacy mode.

Is it possible to use my login details on another phone? I tried this but it keeps saying username/pwd is incorrect. Anyone able to share login details on 2 phones? Thanks

U can login using same acc at another user's phone.

Hi,

Wanna ask about this issue. The upper part of my CCTV feed is distorted as per the picture below. The distortion is moving/flicking when viewing. May I know most likely is this due to the cabling or the camera issue?

And the weird this is, when checking back the recordings, this distortion only happens during day time. The video was stable in the night time recordings  hmm.gif  hmm.gif  hmm.gif

Thanks

Hi sifu-sifu sekalian

I would like to ask for some recommendations for CCTV solutions for my house which is currently empty, but forgot to include planning for concealed cabling during renovation previously

Therefore I am looking for options that can have wireless cameras but local recording to an NVR (not recording to microSD within the camera like TP-Link TAPO cameras, due to concern that records may be lost if thief steals the camera itself)

are there any viable options locally? I've seen on taobao that there are dahua NVRs that can record from wireless cameras (DH-NVR1108HS-W-HDS2).
Will buying these NVRs and/or wireless cameras from China work in Malaysia considering our electricity supply is different
*
Can link WIFI camera to a recorder, but ur WIFI must be very strong and stable.
U still need power socket/point for WIFI camera, still do-able?
Really no way to pull CCTV cable?

may I know why for wired solutions you are recommending the POE systems ?

what's the advantage over analog solutions?

is it because less cabling is required and poe systems support higher resolutions and fancier functions ?
*
Both PoE or Analog are good.

But if u want to use higher spec system (High resolution, High Frame Rate, Special Ai Function, Active Deterrence Function, 2-way audio, etc), then go for IP system (PoE).

If budget low, analog still a very good choice. Nowadays Analog system also have Ai, Active Deterrence, Audio Function. Resolution also up to 4K. But frame rate still lower than IP.

For large system (more than 16 cameras), IP still the best option, because it's scalability and flexibility, hence the cabling cost can be lower compare to analog for large project.
