@habib :winking_face_with_tongue: Found a camera that makes my Reolink 4k PTZ dual cam look like a TOY :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

I will be getting a lot of these for job contract I took on with a government entityā€¦

First lot of them on Monday and over 100 in total at completion of projectā€¦

Had to cancel my retirement for this :rofl::rofl::rofl:

Mmmmm Taxpayer Money :money_bag: :money_bag: :money_bag:

42

Forest Kitty wants two, open your purse. :money_bag: :money_bag:

43

This project is in your area and I can drop by with the Skunks & Turkeys :skunk: :turkey: iif your Zoo needs more critters :winking_face_with_tongue:

44

Already have a nightly visit from Mr. Stinky, you can drop of the turkeys at the Skylinks golf course where I feed the rest of them 3 times a week. (Girl Turkeys Only)

45

These two are offended by that, and have asked for a reprieve :winking_face_with_tongue::turkey:

46

I read the specs and still canā€™t see how they can justify the price tag.

47

The price at that link is nearly double what was actually paid.

At that Quantity they bought directly from manufacturer.

B&H photo likes a big profit :grin:

The built in AI is why the camera costs so much, not just a basic AI like consumer grade cameras.

Myself I wouldnā€™t buy one :rofl: but definitely will get to try one out for a while before it goes to itā€™s actual location.

The price was so good I grabbed 56 of them today :winking_face_with_tongue:

50

How big are those cameras :thinking:

51

Some of those are obligated: Forest Kitty (2), Mr. Stinky (1), Turkey Gang (4) Deer herd (2) and Mr. Bear (2). :grin:

52

The Magnetic Base if it had one would need a crowbar to remove once stuck :winking_face_with_tongue:

V3 for sizing reference :rofl:

53

Holly crap! Difficult to hide from prying eyes :laughing:

Is that a windshield wiper in front?

54

Indeed that is the wiper, cameras are on 40 foot poles or taller so remote glass wiping/cleaning is good to have.

No washer with fluid, just wait for rain or fog to provide a little cleaning help when stubborn stuck on stuff gets in the way. :bird: :poop:

55

Now I see the price tag :grin:

56

At quantity we paid $3300 each, so 100x more expensive than that V3 :rofl:

And of course the mounting base is an extra accessory

Plus the need for POE ++ injectors, etcā€¦

57

Obviously not for mere mortals :grin:

58

Indeed :neutral_face:

Itā€™s for our government overlords to keep us safe :rofl:

59

I have been loyal to Wyze for more than 10 years. The problems and failures just keep getting worse. Currently my cameras record as ā€œeventsā€ and notify me when a twig moves on a tree, when a car drives by on the road in front of my house at night, when the SUN comes up (!!!), but absolutely NEVER if there is a human or even a freaking crowd of humans walking around in my yard! Yesterday I spent 4 hours in the yard mowing and doing other yard work. Not one of my four cameras picked me up.

:rofl: just bought 3 more Wyze Killers :rofl:

Your days are numbered V3 cams :grin:
