Hi Secureiam, thanks for your additional help with this. The answers to your questions: 1. HiLook DVR-204G-F1 2. 1x Reolink Video Doorbell PoE (V1 Version), 2 x Reolink FE-P, 4x GV503T1080p-WF (thought they were Hik) 3. The DVR-204G-F1 is connected to the network. The DVR and the 4 x GV503T...

Obviously I'd already done that :rolleyes:. I was looking for some advice from someone with expertise with CCTV to reccommend products that they know will work with good stable results.

Hi, I have 4 Analog Hikvision cameras on BNC/12v cables to an a Hikvision NVR. I have installed 3 Reolink IP cameras on ethernet and intend to buy a Reolink NVR to record these cameras. I can't upgrade the cabling to the 4 x HK cameras to ethernet (under permanent flooring) so is there an option...

I have 3 Hikvision cameras that are currently on BNC/12V into an NVR. I'd like to add to the system and install some new Reolink cameras which will be PoE but I'd like to view the Reolink and the Hikvision cameras in the same application. That would be either the Reolink app/NVR or in Frigate...

Will any of these options allow me to VLAN the cameras away from the AP?

So, to conclude this. I found the incomer. Someone had removed the stoptap off the 22mm copper incomer and used a speedfit to connect it to PEX 15mm so it looked like a CH pipe. The leak was located on the 22mm copper to lead buried about 150mm underground, a pinhole in the joint to the lead...

I have a Cat6 cable running to a Poe AP (TPLink EA225). I want to reuse that cable to power a PoE switch to power two 360 cctv cameras (in the immediate vicinity) and also the AP but I'm unsure whether its possible. What hardware would I need? The cameras are Reolink FE-P and the AP is TPLink...

No, it's lead and it disappears underground and I can't find where it reappears.

I'm guessing one of thise stud finders would probably do it but why didn't the pros try that? Also, is there a non groundworks version of a CAT and genny that I could use? Connect to any cold water pipe and use it like a stud finder?

Hi, I've got an underground leak and we're losing about 4m3 of water a day. We've had a plumber, a leak detector guy and a groundworks guy out to detect the leak. They all failed except that the groundworks guy used a CAT and genny to locate the pipe run. The pipe is lead and runs under the...

So, it was the bar valve that was the problem. I isolated it and the overflow stopped running (after about 3 hours!). I turned the isolators on again and the overflow started running again, isolated, and it stopped. Thanks to you all for assistance with this.

I think it's a dodgy bar valve. I went to do what Harry suggested and luckily I went into the bathroom without turning on the light so no noise from the extractor. I can hear a slight noise coming from the valve so i'm guessing that it's letting by internally. I'll change the valve as I'm pretty...

Okay, thanks, that make sense. I'll have a check around based upon that.

Is it not the other way around though? If the cold mains feed is getting into the hot gravity feed via a bar valve, then the valve connections will both be at the temperature of the mains cold water or am I missing something?

Yes, I do..3 of them...there's 1-ensuite, 1 in the bathroom and 1 in a small cloakroom. Is it possible to identify which one might be faulty. They are all bar valves.
