Pulled all 5 cameras today and the DVR. Sent it all back. Speco would not talk to me because I am not an authorized dealer. Can you imagine...spent thousands of dollars and lose 2 days of my time and they won't talk to me! Is that short sighted, bad business or what?
My guess is that the aluminum extrusions that the camera cases are made out of were not cleaned of process lubricants and that's what showed up inside the camera. Feel bad for the other guys who will have to deal with this nightmare.
I must also say that image quality was not what one would expect from a HD camera—couldn't read a plate from 20ft or the Speco box label from 10ft.
So long Speco...never again.
Thanks guys for the feedback.
