EzWatch Pro Night/Day Infrared LED Security Outdoor Camera
there tech service isnt there till morning and we need to catch some vandals.
Got the camera today from ups, installed it tonight, worked great. Its on for about an hour and craps out on me. Itll work and show picture/video when a light is on, but the infrared stopped working. When looking at the camera, the infrared leds are blinking/flickering instead of staying on, this is evident when looking at the video monitor as well. Camera is fine if theres a light source now.
How we have it hooked up, about 5 feet from monitor and source inside, hooked into its on monitor and power source. The camera is hidden inbetween 2 motion sensor flood lights outside.
We had the flood lights turned on for motion detection, but then turned them off when the camera stopped working thinking maybe the overheated it..we dont know..
any ideas here????? in the last week my house has been vandalised 3 times...
Answer
If the camera works when there is daylight or floodlights, then your halfway home. LED's don't tend to blink or flicker on their own, that is, like a filament bulb who's filament is almost broken but not quite, if the LED's flicker then they are OK their just not getting the power.
If the led light source is on a cable, unplug and plug the cable several times in the event it's not seated well. Otherwise, find a local ham radio club, you will find a host of technicians who can help "ring out" the wiring problem, which is, a broken connection more than likely. You can also buy infrared light sources all by themselves which would solve the problem.

Is there a way to hook up security cameras so u can log into them on the internet and view them from home?

My buddy wanted a camera system that he could hook up in his house to monitor it when he is out on business. He wanted to hook up 5 video cameras in the house and then be able to view them on his computer via internet while away. Is this possible? If so how do we do this?
Answer
Very easy to do with the technology available in today's CCTV industry.
Along with the cameras, you will also want a security digital video recorder (DVR) to record the video. If anything occurs while he is out of town, he can access the video remotely anywhere in the world using an internet connection.
If the cameras are only going to be installed inside of the house, then a simple color CCD camera will be fine. If any cameras are going to be installed outside of the house, he should go with a day/night camera that automatically switches from color to black & white in low-light conditions (black & white produces a much clearer picture in low-light). He will also need an enclosure for any of the outdoor cameras to protect from the elements.
I do not recommend buying any "no-name" products when it comes to security/surveillance. As a professional in the industry, I can tell you that there are literally hundreds of new manufacturers trying to break into the rapid-growing surveillance market. There products are cheap, unreliable, and it is very easy to hack into all of their products if they are being used with remote access.
Some of the larger, proven manufacturers of the items you are looking for:
Pelco
Panasonic
Sony
Sanyo
GE
Honeywell
Take a look at the following website: www.videosecurityspecialists.com
They are one of the largest distributors of security/surveillance products. Give them a call and let them know what you want to accomplish with your mini-surveillance system. They will furnish you a quote and any literature you may need. They ship anywhere in the US and there pricing is some of the best in the country.
My recomendations:
1. Go with Sanyo cameras. VCC-6584 for the cameras inside your home and VCC-4594 for cameras outside of your home. These two cameras are the highest resolution in the industry and are the same cameras that almost every casino in Las Vegas uses. Pricing is approximately $180 for the VCC-6584 and slightly higher for the VCC-4594.
2. Use a GE digital recorder. One of the sales associate at VSSI can give you the pricing. Don't let them talk you into buying an expensive DVR with features you don't need. Ask for the least expensive 4-input DVR with the smalles hard drive space.
3. You will need at least DSL, preferably high-speed cable at your friends home which will be directly connected into the DVR. He will not be able to access the video remotely on a regular dial-up internet connection.
Good Luck!
