Using the trademark hypeIR ..... Might also be a big problem (look it up its protected). But that will not bother Montavue since they like to make people think they make everything Montavue ...... World leader in surveillance There is a big problem to that claim........ First don't believe everything you read. Second ...... There website and domain is new. And for a claimed high tech company ..... A rookie mistake the domain name has not had the order tag removed . ...... Needs to go on web designe page and edit home page and remove domain reg date tag ................ It show up in search engine I have no problem with montavue and there in business but I do have a problem with sales crap and bad claims World leader ..... Is never a good thing to say ........... Using trademark names like hypeir ( is a product not linked to CCTV) Here are the last 5 numbers of dahua order 53948 I won't list the stock ........ But it's all standard. There are a few on the forum who buy direct ....... And when we ask dahua the question why is montavue getting new tech cams........ Well you can guess there reply hence order check.. Montavue ....... Are missing out on sales by not saying dahua products ....... He buys direct from dahua ........ Which means no china black market. Starlight is new tech and people look for that ......... People have no clue of hypeir because it does not exist as a product name was created by Montavue to hide fact it's a starlight Customers will by from Montavue set it up only to find the produced is dahua anyway........Montavue cloud setup takes you to dahua Sales people are better off saying it. as it is ........adding crap only sounds alarm bells -
Help me Choose a system. Linux savvy but want to stay away
tomcctv replied to vjfromgt's topic in General Digital Discussion
Hi. I would go with the lorex system but not the one you have listed as it is old stock. Go direct to lorex and save money. This is $100 cheaper but is also better than the one you have listed. https://www.lorextechnology.com/hd-ip-security-camera-system/high-definition-surveillance-camera-system-with-2mp-cameras/LN10802-166W-1-p -

Yes your right about the app .... Which is what I said but they claim I also have the problem with understanding development of hypeIR I had to Wait till this morning to get some info ....... I see montavue ordered direct from dahua .... (As do we since 2004) Order shows nothing other than standard DAHUA cameras and recorders. -
Hi. Getting some sound shows your mic is working. But audio on dvrs need to be amplified on audio out so as you have control of volume. You need to connect your dvr audio output to some speakers A cheap set of PC speakers. Will work

Help with mobile/remote view cctv
tomcctv replied to randomtraveller's topic in Computers/Networking
Hi. They are a pig to setup ...... they are also security checked by your isp. Tel tel are in Cheshire a small company which is sometimes best if you need to have a 1 to 1 conversation If you give them a call and ask to speak to Alan Gray and give him your recorder local ip 192.168.1.204 and port that too 34567 Also ask them for a static ip which is much better than a ddns and more secure with static from tel tel -

Ah cool! So this product removes the need to drill holes in the wall? You just install one device inside and another one where the nvr is? No mounting camera still needs fixing or you still need to get power to it A lot of adverts say the benifits of wifi is no holes........ which is crap as they still need power....... so same size hole if power or Ethernet

tomcctv replied to lostsoul65's topic in General Digital Discussion
Just shows you know nothing. Lorex is owned by flir who have a full production licence. There recorders look nothing like dahua ones. As far as app ..... first it's just the lite app and it has only had 4 downloads from the App Store ..... again it's dahua app and just had badge changed. So you are happy in your claim that he sells better cameras and that dahua supplies him with better cameras than what dahua produce for everyone else. The sales man lies to you he lies on website about them being the developers -
Any weather proof rj45 connector that works with Axis E cams
tomcctv replied to avraam's topic in Security Cameras
No. Not wrong . The black kit ......take a look at it .....it is pointless and none Poe for axis......... But besides that why would you waterproof the rj45 and not the power plug........ Then a couple of inches away you have another rj45 there is nothing in the kit to waterproof that .....pointless. For axis Not used one yet ........ But say am wrong -

tomcctv replied to lostsoul65's topic in General Digital Discussion
Yes lorex do sell the 4mp and the 8 8k If you want to spam that company .... then get facts right about other companies But you have to remember your seller is only rebadging dahua So they sound stupid with saying we designed this and that. A 6 month old company will not have cameras made by dahua -

Trying to choose a 4MP surveillance system for my home!
tomcctv replied to SurGuy's topic in General Digital Discussion
I take it you are the owner of the company You do understand lorex flir are dahua cameras And the cameras you have listed are the old dahua model But you seem happy buying from a company that claims to of developed them .... which is salesman crap So you pay less ... 10% if you buy one .... yet you pay $25 more if you buy 4 Like I said company only started in September .... has a lot to learn. -
Trying to choose a 4MP surveillance system for my home!
tomcctv replied to SurGuy's topic in General Digital Discussion
That is only a 2k camera .... again over priced. Why if you buy 1 it's $199.99 Buy 4 and it's $824.95 So more you buy the more money each you pay......if you think that's a discount. Someone needs a new calculator 4K 8mp camera the same .... is the same price as his 2k 4mp anywhere else. Think they mean dahua develop Company gives a lot of crap when just sticking a badge on there products But with only trading since September guess they have a lot to learn -

tomcctv replied to SurGuy's topic in General Digital Discussion
Hi the problem will be warranty. There selling rebadged dahua ... they are not there products And they do cost a little more. New company not even a year old. Don't trust everything you read No they have not developed camera with night time colour......... they only sell dahua With there badge on ..... that makes dahua the developer
