Bl@@dy hell, I am back....

It has been a month or so since I got an email from Yahoo!!!!

Rang NTL last night and they said they have been having the problem for
ove=
r 20 days!!! Amateurs....

Anyway to the question...

I have a number of cameras with built in IR emitters and have come across
a=
problem that I never thought off!...

Spiders can see IR and so can moths.... guess who has hours of footage of
s=
piders building their webs over the camera lens's...

Also the cameras get hot when running so guess where the spiders set up
sho=
p...... little gits!

I now have cleaning cloths on long poles to clear the webs, full time job.

The cameras are good though, colour by day and B&W during darkness.=20

This sort of thing,

I also have 3 B&W cameras,

or

very good cameras and excellent service from RFC.

All connected to a Geovision system.

And yes, colour are useless in the dark.

Hope this helps,
