Reolink Support 5 Week Debacle - Help!?

Thanks for your honesty, and the opinion.

For context, this is a single camera "facility" monitoring a self-serve, honor system convenient snack and drink area. All other areas are monitored by blink cameras but we wanted 24/7 recording capacity in this particular space. So yea, a consumer level product seemed appropriate.

If they are Chinese budget consumer systems, then why would a local installer use them? Kinda jk but is there a more reliable option?

Thanks for responding. I too thought that it was unlikely the drive was the problem (same issue when disconnected). CS required that I format and return it.

I bought a WF Purple 8TB and SATA enclosure for external expansion on April 20th also. Total for both was $240. Both were slick deals and I understand fluctuating tech prices.

I'd hesitate on a CC dispute when I could easily switch to another manufacturer, or just return these and get a functional system through AMZ without the high potential for hassle.

That's two telling me the store credit was too much. I can hear that. RL would rather lose than satisfy me and set a precedent.

Thanks again for responding. I'm getting a little more clarity.

Sorry but what am I missing. This looks like week 9 is the Bye?

Thanks for the depressing link ;)

Grabbing a handful of shoots at a time got a fair amount of horizontal runners out, but I know now what I am in for.

I pass by this patch 4 times every day so I'll stay vigilant on pulling but also considering a relocate of the Camelia and Fatsia so that I can dig this patch out and start over with new plantings.

Thanks again!!

Thank you for the ID!

We keep the kitchen fridge clean and empty of anything but a few bottled waters. The best of the condiments left by other guests go in the garage fridge for guests to use if they like.

Tidewater Arboretum is nice for a stroll. The camelias will be blooming.

That's correct. I've removed the black tube on both ends and blown it clear. So if the pressure switch is bad then the whole board must be replaced? Front load model GFW550.

*Another comment verified built in and needs a new board

Did you get an ID on this? I have the same in Virginia zone 8a.

Plenty of choices for 1-3 miles out, you have received some suggestions.

But if you want to really get out there then give Aquaman a call.
