PTZ 'dome'

Recommended Posts

long story short, the dome of my PTZ has been servilely damaged.

it is intact, but damaged.

 

i have a few options.

buy a broken PTZ from ebay and transfer the guts of my camera into the housing of it,

 

buy another camera (has to be the specific VISTA powerdome to work with my DVR) from ebay, they pop up every now and again, and sell my old one which is fully working apart from the dome.

 

or, find a glass/plastic dome to replace the other, damaged one. just the dome though.

 

what would you suggest?

i know its a long shot, but i don't s'pose any of you have a powerdome gathering dust do you?

Hey Luke,

What size is the dome? 5" 8"?

Is it just the plastic lower dome or the whole pendant that's damaged?

I might be able to help.

Cheers,

John

i don't know the size yet as i still don't have access to a ladder to get the thing down.

yes, it is just the plastic dome that is damaged.

but i live in the UK, would P+P costs be high from america?

I don't think it would be too bad, Luke. I bought a couple lower domes a while back and would be happy to let you have one if it will fit.

When you get a chance to get it down, measure the inside opening of the dome ring. we'll see what we can do.

Cheers,

John

I once asked for an estimate on alibaba on a 3-4 pound product. The cost of product was ok... Shipping was way too expensive...

 

Some try to rip you off on shipping...

 

 

The cost of one transparent dome + shipping cost still much more cheap than the control parts
