anyone have any info on them? i need to get 1, i dont need a 4 or 6 or whatever camera system, just 1 camera, and a DVR, i do not want it to be WI-FI, just record to a central system...

going to be bolted about 50 feet away from desired viewing location... but, i need it to be decent enough to pick up faces in the dark, car makes, ect....

this is one ive been looking at, just not sure on it tho, i have never bought one...

the reviews are high, and im assuming the 40 foot detection in dark is just playing safe?


thoughts?

oh, and i dont want to spend 500+ dollars on one either... the one i posted is high enough....

You are really taking this whole PI-in-training thing to the next level ain't ya?
Won't a standard game camera work for your listed needs? The new WIFI ones will send alerts and pics straight to your phone.

That being said, this doesn't sound like it's going to end well Nate. But by all means, carry on and come back with the story once you make parole in 10 to 15.

Hey fukface, let the good idea fairy do its work here. I see the possibility for pure gold in the future..

We have mail thieves...

Thought about the game cam, worried it won't see that far in the dark to be tripped, like I said, it's about 50 feet away, with a camera like the one I posted, I can set it to record every night from 12-4, and delete old videos daily, takes a few seconds to wipe an SD card....

People that think I'm stupid and will end up in jail, aren't the most knowledgeable of folks, just like the dipsh!t a year ago that nearly got me killed, lucky for him, all I got was a ticket, that I beat, without seeing a judge...

Anyways, yeah, gonna film them, then beat the living dogsh!t out of them, cops won't do anything, USPS won't do anything, so I will... I'll make sure to make them swing first, I have an excellent skill in making people react without thinking....

Take Slo D with you

Why do you leave the mail out over night?

I don't, I get it every day when it comes, other neighbors don't however, and it still doesn't stop them... You go outside to leave in the morning, and all 20 boxes are open..

Empty or not, they come...

It's been going on for years, but when I drove out in the main road today, and saw everyone's mail laying all over the roads, it was the last straw...

I'll end it...

Modern game cams take clear digital pics or video out to 100 ft in the pitch black. We easily get small squirrels on cam from 75 ft. Get the no IR flash kind. Get the card reader that pops into your cell phone, read and wipe. We do it in the field in like 30 seconds. Easy peasy. $100 - $150. Chit, I'll lend you one to test out as long as you post the video beat down on here for our enjoyment.





I said carry on!

The problem I would have with a game cam, is mounting, how wide is the field of view on most of them?

Talking about something like this?

Yep! I typed UV earlier, but meant IR. No glow, no flash at all. Nothing will know it's there. Batteries last for months and I can get 1000's of pics on a single 36gb SD card. We have a few out in the woods now since hunting season. When i go back in a couple of months, there will be 10,000+ pics on each SD card. I sometimes put one pointed at my front door. Nobody knows it's there.

Depth is 100 ft. Field of view 75 - 100 ft give or take. They capture pretty much everything in the area that moves. Get a camo one and hide it in the bushes or up in a tree for easy concealment. They strap to just about anything. You can also get a heavy cable lock and padlock or even a fully encompassing metal lock box if you want. 1 - 2 should cover everything around your house. Like I said, you can borrow one to try out first if you want.

Prediction.


Evo’s camera catches Evo stealing mail.

Get a PO Box in town. $60 a year, no worries. You go to town every couple of days to get groceries, gas, etc. anyway. Then you tell the post office never to touch your mailbox in front of your house....then wire that mutha with enough electricity to fry the next @#$% who touches it. I'd still get a camera to film the zap and post it on YouTube and here on the dark side.

Da fuq? I'm not going to the post office to get my mail, fvck that noise lol...
I
I have a plan in place now I think will work just fine...


Off topic, but where the fvck is Hank?

Is the mail thief (assuming it’s not you) the same person that was living in the woods on the old landfill behind your neighborhood? That thread was gold, mostly because it had pictures to go along with your long rambling posts.

No, they flattened that area, it's a clear cut now, going to build a bunch of houses...


Those pictures, were also correct...

Evo, did you ever have to answer to hitting your neighbor in the head with a shovel or Axe. Maybe that's how Hank ended up with that dent?

i never hit anyone with anything...

Evo, the one in your link requires that you run electrical power to the camera,
and that can be a real PITA, depending on your chosen mounting location.

If you're going to install a camera, battery powered and wireless is the way to go.

Evo, keep your hatchet close. If the perps are coming by every night to empty the mailboxes, you don't need a security camera. Just hide out there on the night of your choice and ambush them when they stop at the mailbox. Naturally, pics of the takedown would be appreciated here.
