Youll be re replacing the hardware at least once in your lifetime, most likely in 10 to 15 year intervals.

"Trying to drop things?" When your CFO tells it like it is.

[@bradhumphrey5223]

1) You NEVER drill into the mortar of the brick wall! That is a no-no. Reason has to do with water ingress and freezing, eventually breaking up the mortar and loosening the bricks. 2) Your camera aiming sucks (for security). You are not taking a picture for a photo album, you want to point the camera where it can see the most crucial spaces. Seeing up into the trees and sky, is wasted view that could be looking at the area below. Frame your view by the outside edges, not the center (opposite of what you do for photography). 3) Be mindful of how movement will occur in the view area. Example: having the camera centered on the driveway, will have objects coming straight at the camera. That means the motion sensing will not pick until very close. Where as if you mount it to either the left or right side, objects coming up the driveway will cross the path of the zones more easily, setting off the motion detection much sooner and consistently. Also mounting it to low is going to put the motion of objects on the street, in the same motion zones as your driveway.

It's not clickbait. As if you watch the video he actually gets to store and look back on the footage as it's stored locally. As without the subscription on the nest ones you cant look back on footage thus he gets cameras that record and store it without a subscription so the title is right

Plot twist: Linus is actually setting up Flesh Lights.

[@junkerzn7312]

12/24V POE is the 'old' POE standard. Pretty sure that all of Ubiquiti's gear is old-school. Basically old-school POE is passive power, but not a whole lot of power because it runs at a lower voltage. Newer POE+ gear is far better. POE+ runs at 48V (actually more around 56V), can run much further distances and push far more power. POE+ negotiates the power capability with the device and doesn't dump real power into the cable unless the negotiation succeeds. So a gigabit POE+ switch is far safer than a POE switch because it makes sure that all 4 pair in the cable are working. Ubiquiti is ... expensive. Easy to use, but expensive. In terms of 4K video cameras, well... just about all modern IP cameras have excellent resolution, and even good night vision for static scenes. Where all of these cameras tend to break-down is when people are moving around at night. A combination of H.264 or H.265 compression and long shutter times usually makes features like faces pretty blurry at night. You need good lighting... not just the dinky infrared LEDs built into the cameras, but actual good lighting at night, if you want to be able to get good pictures of moving objects. -Matt

Looking forward to "I tore out my unifi protect cameras" video. I've had them for over a year now and motion detection is basic pixel difference kind, which is aweful for any outdoor application. Because of that, unifi protect cameras are completely useless at night as all the bugs around going to run towards the lens due to IR and trigger motion many times every night. And if it's raining at night, every water droplet is light up like a glow stick, causing non-stop motion alarms.

[@darudesandstorm7002]

is there no motion sensitivity slider on the protect software? i use the older nvr one and it has this setting so my cat didnt trigger motion detection all the time. the ir ring around the camera is a problem with any consumer level outdoor camera sadly, luckily the 3-pro (not 3 normal) and 4-pro allow you to trigger the ir filter without activating the light (3 normal doesnt let you do so, go figure) and you can set up an external ir light away from the camera to avoid this. its annoying but fixable. having worked with security systems for decades now they probably have the best consumer system around. i dont like that they moved towards the protect 'cloud' style management though for personal use.

[@4Da_Tech]

Yea i also have had a "fun" time trying to limit the motion detection. You basically cannot. But they look okay during the day!!

[@oneman2001]

Couple of points, 99% of the image is static so you get mental compression as long as you drop your colour bits. You don't need 16m colours for CCTV. My 5mp h.view using h.265 at 5 frames a second is less than a 1 mb/sec. 8 cameras would be say 1MB a second or less than 100GB a day. Camera wise, I use 5mp h.view bullet cameras for external use. £90 and also have colour night vision. Can easily read a number plate at 25m. Then you realise you aren't going to store all that video. All decent systems have motion detection so that is all you need to store. I live on a quiet road, I store about 50 X 30 clips of one camera. Get ONVIF cameras. This is where Next and Reolink, etc fail. ONVIF is a industry standard which unties the camera from vendor control. I don't bother with the cameras own software. I use Blue Iris, about £40 for a key and supports any ONVIF compatible IP camera, webcam, analogue camera (with capture card), etc. Has a ton of features like masking,mobile app, secure remote access, cloud storage, Alexa and Google integration, the list goes on and on. It can also send alerts if motion detection is triggered. Don't bother with wireless, too many criminals with WiFi jammers these days.

for a light weight thing as a camera it seems to me that it doesnt matter, especially under the roof overhang Its also a good place to fill up the holes when you happen to remove the camera

[@iambueno]

Nothing wrong with mounting into the mortar for light weight items such as cameras, much easier to repair once you decide to remove the item you previously hung. Your house will need repointing before water does any damage due to a small hole filled with a plug and screw.

[@CableWrestler]

Why would you not drill in to the joint? It's easier to patch up. Do you have any experience with tools? I'm not taking about DIY either.

@@CableWrestler I've had some. ;) He's not wrong about it. I wouldn't recommend drilling into the mortar.
