  1. Does anyone know how many RG59 Siamese cables will fit in 3/4 inch schedule 80 PVC pipe? Would like to put 3 in it, with the farthest run being about 200ft, will that pull okay that far or would I need to fish it through each individual piece? Also is their any negatives using PVC. Tried Direct Burial, but had 2 out of three lines go bad in a year and a half. Any suggestion or ideas would be great. 


  2.  I installed 12 cameras appx 2 yrs ago, 9 with regular cable and 3 with direct burial cable. Everything has worked perfect until a few months ago, 2 of my cameras that are using the direct burial cables are having picture problems. Checked the cameras on another run and they work perfect, changed out the compression fittings and nothing changed, still a bad pictured. So I am thinking the cable is going bad.  This is the cable I used

     ****Due to the Thick Outter Sheath of the Cable a Razer Blade MUST be used to Seperate the RG59 from the 18/2 Cable.****
    AW-RG59U-S-5B-DB, RG-59/U Siamese Direct Burial Cable, 500 ft., 100% solid bare copper core, 95% bare copper shielding and stranded bare copper 18/2 power wire, UV resistant.

      I didn't put it in conduit. Can someone recommend a good quality cable for me. Just didn't think I would be replacing it in two years.


  3. I am piecing together a security system with some great help. But I need some more input on who has a good selection of HD-TVI cameras. I still need about 6 or 7 more cameras. I bought 5 different cameras to try out last month, so I could decide which ones I liked. Well the two that I like, one is discontinued and the other one went up in price, so I need to find something else. Any suggestions on where to look?


  4. Where do most people put there DVR? Do I need to be worried about heat, I was thinking about putting it in the laundry room but was worried about the slightly higher humidity and sharing the same circuit as the washing machine. It is located inside the house with A/C Any suggestions or comments?

    Here is a link to the hikvision usa website's unauthorized distributors notice page .

    There is a link there for authorized distributors and another link to contact hikvision's customer support to check if your potential hikvision purchase is from an authorized reseller .

    Maybe you can ask them where the closest reseller is to you .

    I don't know why they just don't let you put in your zip code on their website like a dealer locator

     

    I would think it would that easy. you have to call them. I don't mind using any of them as long as it has some kind of support and in English. Don't mind using one that rebranded, I just need something that is dependable and will last, heck it doesn't even have to be Hikvision, just heard that brand name thrown around a lot.


  6. Been reading for the last week and finally decided on a Hikvision Nvr 8 Channel poe, my question is where can I buy a American version with support. without going to E-bay and Amazon. Still trying to piece together what I need. I would like to start with 4 Cameras with great night vision. My budget is 1000.00 Can someone please help me. I have been reading and it is so hard for all of that to sink in. Had my garage broke into and they stole all of my chain saws. I can't afford to loose anymore. I live in a small town 25,000 population. So no local support or warehouse. will have to buy on-line. Just need someone to lead me in the right direction. My time is limited on the internet for research. Can someone please help me. If someone knows of another reputable brand that will last please let me know.
