New camera put up today. I found a way to get the cable back through with the oversized BNC connector and power.
Got a old curtain pole that was just the right size. I then pushed the wires in the hole of the pole and jammed it up. Then pushed the pole through the wall hole and pulled out the cables the other side. Saved me having to cut the cables.
Well the camera is better than the old one but not the best increase i was hoping for.
Day time images are good and much improved on my crappy ebay camera. Night vision still suffers from a noisy image like the old one but is nothing like the unusable. poor image of the cheap ebay camera.
This new recommend camera is much better but it's not worth £85. I would of expected it to be 85% to 90% quality for that price.
This is about 65% quality.
I may get a pecan that was recommended before but only if I can get it for about £30. I will get one as a back up and as I like the PTZ feature.
I have ordered some cctv baluns off ebay, with cable. I am not sure if this would make and improvemnt but will keep it anyway, for backup.
Also when you buy BNC cable with power, make sure it is twin core, not the cheap and nasty all in one cable. See here for the better cable http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/10M-CCTV-...-/320638561776?pt=UK_CCTV&hash=item4aa78c2df0
I bought some like that too. Plus if you are tight on space, you can split the cable and push one through at a time.
Well i'm not showing any photos, as nobody is interested but here is some photos of, the crappy ebay camera I took down. Like I said, there is no switches on there. I were right.
It does have a sony chip but does not mean quality. Says on chip, Sony CXD3142R. May be that means something to some of you CCTV geeks.
