I've nearly completed the slow and painful re-cabling of the 3rd bedroom/ office.
13 Amp laid, and about to be connected into the ring.Ethernet run through the joists to the far side of the room.
Just remembered that the TV booster hub is in the airing cupboard next to this room, and ran co-ax through the joists and terminated in an F- connector next to the Ethernet jack. All tested and working.
All that remains is to put the insulation in and then the floor back down; or is it?
The last 18" or so of the room overhangs an open porch. The porch has a light in the centre but plenty of real estate in the plasterboard ceiling.
I've been trying to think of anything else I should put under the floor before I close it all up again and I thought of a security camera.
Looking straight down it should see all visitors coming to the front door.
It will be close to the location of the PCs so I could use USB, etherenet, or other cabling (although powering it through USB would be my first choice as I've just finished fitting everything else and I'm starting to run out of floor space) but whatever, now is the time to consider.
Can anyone recommend a suitable camera?
A quick look on line brings up this:
I could connect it to a Windows or (gasp) Linux PC or a Raspberry Pi as I have quite a few older systems as well as the new ones, and a surplus of smaller HDDs.
Further, is there anything else I should perhaps consider for the porch?
Once the floor goes back down a bespoke storage arrangement goes over the top so it won't be coming up again any time soon.
Cheers
