--- Quote from: John B on July 30, 2022, 12:16:30 am ---The proposed system is a Dahua TiOC system. --- End quote --- Timely, but this happens often enough that it's not really news. https://thehackernews.com/2022/07/dahua-ip-camera-vulnerability-could-let.html Dahua (like Hikvision) make workable cameras but are a bit lackadaisical with their attitude to security. --- Quote from: thm_w on July 29, 2022, 10:11:57 pm ---Hikvision is not "bottom of the barrel" its basically the best image quality consumer level camera you can get. --- End quote --- I didn't say they were bottom of the barrel. I said they (and Dahua) are about as low down in the barrel as you want to go. There's plenty below them, but there's a lot above them also. You get what you pay for. For domestic use they're probably fine, but keep them isolated from the world. |

Yeah I have to agree, 300 watts does seem like a lot. My entire server rack (2 servers, 2 switches, firewall and a few other bits of pieces) pulls about 500 watts in total. |
