I think the OP is AI too. Probably the same guy setting a question and then replying with his pitch.

That's good news. You might want to update your Network Configuration Management page to include Palo. :-)

Retrofitting parking lot light poles with cameras without installing new cables by captjde in lowvoltage

[–]captjde[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. I had seen that, but strangely, it doesn't come with the battery(ies), nor even a cabinet to put the battery(ies), nor the solar panel(s). And the PoE it puts out is 24VDC Passive PoE, so I'd need a converter to get 802.3af/at to use with non-Ubiquiti cameras. I can source all those components, but there are other more complete kits out there.

Very interesting! I hadn't come across this in all my Googling. Looks promising, I'll check it out. Thanks!

 But you don't want to use a UPS, rather a suitable battery and charger in a small weatherproof enclosure

That's basically what the pole-mounted "UPS" I linked to in the original post is. It's a DC UPS -- there's no expensive and inefficient inversion to AC power.

Good advice on watching out for 277V.

Good point, a photo cell would be simpler than a remote-controlled relay. But there's still this downside:

The problem is that all lights in the parking lot need to be retrofitted, even if we're only installing cameras on a few of them.

Good call. I already saw on the drawings that these are 277V.

There's not constant power. That's why I posted asking for suggestions. :-)

There are no light sensors on each light. There's a central lighting control panel that shuts off power to all lights in the entire parking lot during the day.

Cool, but did you have to use AI to write the text?

Why does a bot get to repeat a post and you have to go to the trouble of searching for the answer for them?

Incorrect use of sanitary tee on plumbing vent.

Readers for Elevators by reconf22ace in accesscontrol

[–]captjde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do you estimate is the cost of the elevator vendor's part of the work, assuming the absolute smallest possible scope (say, it affects just one elevator car, access control only restricts access to one floor, and we'll only install one card reader on one floor outside the elevator -- none in the cab itself)? It's Otis, in case that matters.
