Is the Onvif standard really a working thing? I have an existing setup of a Qihan NVR and a couple of Qihan outdoor POE cameras which I'd like to now add to. I've got a couple of different interior dome cameras (one Hikvision, one something else) but they don't seem to work on my NVR when I...

These guys have different quality kits http://www.theunderfloorheatingstore.com/water-underfloor-heating-systems The gold rated one is almost £1750 for a 100m^2 kit. However the silver rated stuff is within budget. Any love for the Prowarm stuff from Dan/Simon?

Both those companies use the Grundfos pump you were lamenting.

It sounds like I'm making a big mistake here. Out of interest I've just had a closer look at the "lifetime warranty" covering option 2 but it looks like it doesn't cover the pump, valves etc (just the pipe). Could you please point me in the direction of what I should be buying?

what is crap about them?

Hello I need wet underfloor heating for 95m^2 and as I'm on a budget I have been searching online for a kit to do it myself. I have 2 likely suspects and I was wondering if anyone could offer any input? They are a similar price but not sure if there is a difference between the quality of kit...

Would you mind expanding on that part about better results from cat5e? Why would there be better results? Also even if I go for cat5e I'm still left with the same problem of cables with fictitious labels, I'll pay for cat5e but own cat5. Can you recommend somewhere to buy legit cables that meet...

Possibly I won't need it but as I'm building the house and there is no plasterboard on the walls, I would like to put in reasonably up to date cables with spare capacity, hence the cat6. No I don't have a 10GB switch but I am sending 12v power down data cables so I would like for those cables...

Perhaps but the cable itself needs to meet a spec to be considered cat6 in the first place surely. Apparently there is nothing to stop someone writing catX on a cable and selling tit without meeting the standard. I was trying to buy some cat6 bulk cable and it turns out it the conductors are...

There are a lot of articles indicating that almost all cables sold as cat6 nowhere near meet the actual cat6 standards. Most of them don't even meet cat5e standards. And buying a big brand name apparently means nothing. I have a particular interest in running decent cables as I have PoE cameras...

I'm at the stage of my project where I need to order a load of plasterboard, rockwool, kingspan etc to fit out the inside. It's a large house (and my budget is already blown) so I'd like to buy this stuff as cheaply as possible. I've been looking at various online resources but haven't seen one...

If we disregard the absolute garbage, it seems that my budget allows me to either get stuff at the cheap end of the better brands or something higher up the range of the unapologetically Chinese makers (Everything is Chinese made anyway let's face it). Anyway I've decided to go for something...

I've been trying to put up a couple of cameras around the place but everything I buy (or just check the footage of on youtube) is disappointing. At the moment I have rigged up an old Galaxy S4 with a CCTV app from the playstore but it's not much of a permanent solution despite providing decent...

Thanks for the diary. Could you please expand on the above quote? I'm not sure what you mean.
