bpzle 0 Posted April 12, 2011 That is a Pelco box camera housing, over 2 feet long... and it's checkin' out a back door of a fast food place... What the hell is in that thing?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Birdman Adam 0 Posted April 12, 2011 That's crazy! That support must be holding 50+ pounds? I'd bet it's one of those real old cameras - the 'tube' kind. Maybe with direct 120V wire & a transformer in there!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bpzle 0 Posted April 12, 2011 (edited) Haha...I was thinking that too... and maybe the just recycled the housing? Edited April 13, 2011 by Guest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Angus 0 Posted April 13, 2011 Maybe its not a fast food joint, but an enterance to a super secret Government bunker... and its not a CCTV camera... its a Laser Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hardwired 0 Posted April 13, 2011 If that's the Pelco EH5700 series enclosure, they weigh somewhere between 13-18 pounds, plus the arm & whatever the heck they've got in that enclosure. Looks like they're trying to overcompensate for something.... Kind of like the camera version of the middle age guy with the Trans-Am and the comb-over, maybe?

SEANHAWG 1 Posted April 13, 2011 We have received some of those in the past and they just have an old school B/W camera in them. Not sure why they have such a gigantic housing though. They have them here to all over our local county court house. Time to upgrade. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rory 0 Posted April 13, 2011 i put CNB Box cameras in regular housings and they have almost a whole camera length still at the rear of it .. maybe that one is NUKE proof? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SEANHAWG 1 Posted April 16, 2011 I have always wondered why they make such large housings for. Even the bigger box cameras do not fill up the housing. I have seen some Pelco housings at a quick trip that were about half the size of a normal housing that looked great. I am not sure why that design never took on more with other manufacturers.
