bpzle 0 Posted January 30, 2011 I would be inclined to do some building/ rigging. I've never really seen anything off the shelf before... Can you talk more about the application or is it top secret? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thewireguys 3 Posted January 30, 2011 I need outdoor rated covert housings for urban environments to hold cameras and computers. That is all I can say. I know I can build them but I don't have time and I want to just concentrate on the electronics so I am looking to see it there are any suppliers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you haven't your in for a big surprise. You will burn up stuff like there is no tomorrow. Ask me how I know. PC mother boards, hard drives, and power supplies will burn up every July. Most cameras have a 120 degree limit. If you put a PC outside it will need an environmental enclosure like these: http://www.ddbunlimited.com By the time you add the heat and AC package to them your looking at about 5 to 8G's per enclosure.

Thanks for the link but I need enclosures with windows Yes I have. We have cameras out in the field with routers and 3g/4g connectivity in heated/cooled housings without any issues. I am building the same thing just in a different box. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bryceb 0 Posted January 31, 2011 Anyone else reminded of the DIY flux capacitor? http://www.geek24.com/g/how-to-build-your-own-flux-capacitor I haven't studied any of the NEMA case suppliers and whether they include windows, but I assume it could be done.

sealedtight 0 Posted October 5, 2011 I think you should check with ddbunlimited.com as they will not be as price described above. They do custom work in four weeks or less. They may even have the identical item your looking for in stock. Do you need heat and air or just fans? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SDM Group 0 Posted October 6, 2011 Supercircuits does a covert camera like that, not sure about the quality though. Could use the set up and put your own camera in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
