QUOTE(JonSpark @ May 7 2024, 04:54 PM) For those who change outdoor cams often (within housing compound), you can just use wall fan plates and brackets/sofa interlock instead of drilling holes on the wall/awning, then hide the setup with junction box. Sorry I don't understand, if using fan plates sofa interlock no need to drill? How it stick to the wall then? Got sample pics? This post has been edited by dest9116: May 7 2024, 09:01 PM

QUOTE(Relaxing work 2 @ May 7 2024, 12:32 PM) I use REOLINK complete with REOLINK NVR. Last year some snatch thief incident on road nearby. Policemen came and checked my CCTV. They're impressed with the clarity. How many channels and how much including installation

QUOTE(seeseetv @ May 7 2024, 02:21 AM) Hi , im a cctv seller for 6 years in the market already . You can just go ahead with ezviz, tapo or xiaomi for a peace of mind . If you are looking for brands other than the above , avoid brands with apps like V360 , V380 . These are product from low cost manufacturers. Means their factory priorities on cheapest material and will add alot of fancy functions to attract consumer . Cause average consumer dont understand functions are just codings . Hence low grade chipset + fancy coding = disaster , low life span , frequent errors . If you are t20 , go for ezviz , m40 go for tapo , b40 go for xiaomi . HKVISION??

One plate drill to wall, another plate (hook) screw on the camera hole, so just snap together. So in case you need to replace new cam, just remove the the plate from old cam and attach it to new one If I got go back home I'll share some pics

Grateful for all the comments and opinions, if my budget is less than RM200, what would you all recommend? Or is RM200 not even good enough?

Backlane not shaded anything Don't get the xiaomi aw300 super crap I already spoiled one during slightly heavy rain even when it's supposed to be outdoor cctv ip67 etc. Another the lights are dead, when it trigger lights during intruder alert it will trip and restart itself damn stupid and because it's water damage I can't claim warranty. Like some said better get the imilab ec5, that one is outdoor and can rotate. I've been using for half year so far so good except for the lack of free clouds storage. Imilab is subsidiary of xiaomi

If not exposed under rain, can get those cheapo xiaomi ones during sales maybe can get about 100 including sdcard I think. So can get 2 of it.

Bought 3 Ezviz C6N 1080p for my parent's house. Less than RM100 each, for camera only. With SD card might need to add another RM30 I think. This post has been edited by suri: May 8 2024, 10:25 AM

That's why now they use human detection instead of old school motion detection to reduce false alarm Just don't get Xiaomi, their server is super slow these days. Can take quite a while to get the stream loading on a bad day
