Have any of you ever used this brand?

Recommended Posts

Has anyone ever used the veilux cameras for installs and how did you feel the quality was afterwards?

 

 

I am looking for more brands to use and thought of maybe trying them out?

 

 

 

Let me know.

I just installed a ball-style vandal-resistant Veilux unit in an exterior application in Hawaii. This means that it be subjected to consistent air temperatures in the 80's -90's, high humidity, high air salt-content, and bright sunlight. It is covering a vulnerable entry door area which is pitch-black at night.

 

This unit is the model SVV-58IRC40L2812D. It has a 550 line Sony camera in it.

 

Physically, the camera is robustly constructed. The mount is die-cast aluminum in two pieces. The only vulnerability is that if the camera is aimed at too sharp an angle, the cables from the ball portion are vulnerable.

 

The window is concentric two-piece, so the IR illuminators shine through a separate ring of glass than the camera lense. This is MUCH better than the single-piece windows on my KT&C N600H's I have. When those get dirty, the IR light reflects back into the lens, obscuring the view.

 

Would I buy another one? Yes. I don't consider sample size-one a good sample size.
